My trip to Evergreen Mills was especially memeroble for me. There was freeing the Super Mutant Behemoth and watching it fight the Raiders, fighting them myself and meeting the salesman in the club-esqe cave.
Tossing all of my mines and grenades into a huge heap on top of a car, and firing Fat Man at it. The resulting explosion and ragdoll flight were suitably impressive.
Once in Rivet City, I was caught stealing a tidbit and all of a sudden the guard was after me. Since I didn't want to fight, I ran aimlessly through thew corridors since I often get lost in RC, and picked the lock to a random room and fled inside for cover. Since I'd taken damage, I stole all of the food from the shelves and ate it, before killin a guard who had ran inside. Then, a resident ran at me, and I blew his head clean off in VATS, with his decapitaded corpse now laying in the middle of the hall. Then, out of nowhere, a resident came and said "God bless you" before walking past. Everyone had suddenly stopped being hostile.
The headless corpse was always just laying there every time I visted RC after then.
Plus there was this one time with my freind, when we were targeting a Supermutent with a shotgun in VATS for multiple attacks. After the first shot, it just stopped shooting and showed the Supermutant just standing there shooting at us for about a minute before it actually let us fire again.

Thank you. ^^ Always nice to meet another MBellz fan. And yes, he is sex incarnate.InterAirplay said:I don't really have anything to say about that.googleit6 said:On the crazy glitchy Head of State quest, I was just about to bring Caleb back a photo of the Lincoln Memorial. Unfortunately, the game decided at that moment to spawn some radscorpians on me and the free slaves. So, Caleb and a few others go out to kill the radscorpians, and I panicked, knowing that they would get killed and I would be screwed over for finishing the quest.
Well, I followed them out, but I didn't get there in time. Caleb got killed, and now I have an unfinishable quest in my log. It's quite annoying, actually.
Another one was with my law bringer perk. I went to their outpost, and while I was inside, they started reacting to a radscorpian attack. I had read about this before, saying that Sonya could just book it into the wasteland and I'd never see her again, so I did my best to kill off the radscorpians. Too late- again. Sonya took off, leaving me with a hell of a lotta fingers that I couldn't cash in for caps. I wasn't too pleased, to say the least.
Oh, and one more. I was in Evergreen Mills, and I acidentally fell down into a crop of rocks. I was stuck there, and couldn't get back out. Plus, there were two raiders within my perception distance, so I couldn't fast travel. I tried to kill them, but they far above me on a bridge, and were walking roundabout routes. It was extremly frustrating, because I ended up having to load my last save.
Fun times with Fallout 3.
Despite the glitches, it's still one of my favorite games.
I just think your avatar is pure sex. Bellamy FTW.
I missed a one of the Mega Mutants with a Fat Boy once . . . while using VATS.
My sister never lets me forget about that.

Ahh, finally a chance to share a few. *ahem*
1) I find Evergreen Mills on a random run-through. Having beaten the game thoroughly a few times, I decide 'What the hell', and decided to do one thing I'd never done before; let loose the Behemoth and let it wreck havoc on the raiders. What followed was both hillarious as I watched through the scope of my sniper rifle as it tore raider after raider a new one, and glorious as I watched two raiders seek shelter atop the scafolding around the slave pen, and out of range, killed the Behemoth with what I later discovered to be a hunting rifle and a 9mm handgun. I always wondered what they must have been thinking:
"Keep firing, Hans! I think those last fifty rounds might have wounded him!"
"Thank goodness I wore my pants made of ammo today!"
2) Another Behemoth story, one a lot of folks seem to share. It's my first playthrough. I have only recently achieved the mighty weapon, the hunting rifle. Yes, it was that early in the game. As I wander, eager to see this strange new world, I stumble across what appears to be a teddy bear trapped in a cage made of shopping carts. Curious, I go closer...
Veterans of the game know what happens next well enough. Going close enough or trying to interact with the cage triggers a Behemoth, with Fire-Hydrant-On-A-Pole, to spawn and attempt to turn you into hamburger. I ran for the hills, literally, and on finding I could outrun the Behemoth- but just barely -I began a running gun battle that saw me, by the end, down to two rounds for my handgun, none for my rifle, no stimpacks, a drug addiction... and a dead Behemoth. I think I declare the game officially great right about then...
3) I played the PS3 version far too many times... at launch, after trophies came out, with expansions, for each Karma path. But the last run I made was the evil karma run, since I prefer saving the wasteland to damning it. Even then, there was something strangely satisfying about gathering the Winterized T-51b armor, taking up a shock sword, and going Pint-Size Slasher on the entire town of Megaton, depleating it of any adult life before heading back to Tenpenny and nuking the remains.
4) One last story, but one of my favorites. On a random run through, and after a brief Oblivion binge, I found myself mentally commenting three things:
*1: It's so much nicer being able to move even slowly when you have over the weight limit.
*2: Man, Raven Rock has so much good stuff, I could never take it all without going over the weight limit and being unable to fast travel back to Megaton. Which sucks, since you can't ever come back here.
*3: ...I have time to kill, and want to do something silly.
So I looted Raven Rock. All of it. You know under the eating area, where there are all those forks? Looted them. Every science room, with various unimportant doodads? Looted them. Every bloody object, piece of armor, and armament in the entire facility? Looted it. By the time I left there, I was carrying several tons of equipment.
And I walked.
Inch by inch, step by step, with Fawkes by my side, I journeyed back to Megaton. Anyone or anything along the way I saw that could be picked up was. And when I made it back, damn it all, I felt proud of my amazingly silly deed.

one time my character( who's name was Elijah Benouis btw ) ate some "strange meat" that these travellers sold me once. and i was thinking to myself... what could this meat be, so i followed them a bit just to find them murder a passing by merchant and scavenge him for meat. i was very disgusted and murdered them both... then looted them and ate their strange meat
I once played a game as a saint until the Wedding at Rivet City. I sat through it and suddenly realized I had stumbled upon the greatest opportunity to cross me in the Wastes. I waited until the very last moment before taking out my Chinese assault rifle and pulling a Valentine's Day Massacre on the entire room. Except for the people that couldn't die. I even put on a dirty pre-war business suit and a Shady Hat. Good stuff, but I could never safely return to Rivet City again.
So, I was on top of a bridge, surrounded by pissed off Wastland Raiders and super mutants, not wanting to risk my life fighting all of them off, I ran towards the side of the bridge and jumped off, I then fill into and swam down it a little, and eventually arrived at an island. After getting up on the island, I went up a few stairs and right in front of me was the first Deathclaw I had ever seen. And being the quick-thinker I am, I immediately turned the difficulty all the way down and one shot killed it in the face. Yes, my brilliantly quick thinking saved me many times in that game.
my friend rigged the Republic of Dave's election in the best way
He got everyone to vote for dave except the girl, then as dave went to count the ballots, he waited until Dave unlocked the ballot box, then immediately stole the ballots, and Dave lost because there was only one vote for the girl.
It was hilarious

This one was actually a scripted event: you know the hotel that the ghouls wanted into? I actually convinced every human to let them in (with the exception of one, who I blew up by putting a bomb in his pants). A few months later I go back and all the humans are dead and rotting in a basement. I ask what the fuck happened, and the main ghoul told me that they just couldn't get along. In response, I killed everyone there. Good times, good times.
My savegame corrupted. D:
However, I did mange to fix it... by dropping the Fatman on my shoe.
I'm not even kidding. I found the fix on the internet, "nuke yourself and your savegame will recover". I thought I was being trolled, BUT IT WORKED.
