I'm pretty sure he meant the Cazadors, not the bloatflies. Thankfully Victor saved my ass from a pack of those fucking things, or they would have eaten me o.0Sansha said:

They aren't Bloatflies, they're Cazadors [http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Cazador], and they will wreck your day (until you get better weapons and a higher weapon skill). Granted that I'm playing on Very Hard (because anything less might as well be Very Easy), but when I first met them a single hit dropped over half of my health bar. Even after gaining a number of levels they'd still take a pretty large chunk of health and drop me after 3 or 4 hits. Basically, if you can't cripple one of their wings to force them to walk (slowly), they will destroy you.Sansha said:
Edit: Also, to Yahtzee; Disneyland DOES charge that much. In fact, they charge much much more than that if you want access to both sides of the park. This is assuming that one cap is supposed to be one dollar, of course.
I enjoyed this review and for the people asking where the review is. You pretty need to look at the fall out 3 video. He even stated this was like an expansion pack.
While I don't put much stock in Russ Pitts' recent petulant diatribe to the game industry because of this game(I think he over-sensationalized the problem, but what do you expect from a journalist trying to get hits to make money), I still have to say that releasing a game that can not be completed because (from the sound of things) it consistently(or nearly consistently) just crashes is PITIFUL and INEXCUSABLE. In my opinion, the game developer should have the decency to be willing to refund all or at least part of people's money for such piss-poor performance on their part. Such shitty quality is not tolerated in any other industry; why should games and software in general be any different?
I played the first Fallout 3, all the way through. I was not impressed. A vast, free-roaming interactive wasteland of nothingness. There's more to do and see in a desert than the city-sized void of Fallout 3. The game was simply big, but there was next to nothing in it for all that size. I realize it's supposed to be an apocalypse, and you're not likely to find much in the way of interesting things to do or see after an apocalypse. Certainly, it's more realistic to make things as such; however, it makes for a pretty uninteresting game, in my opinion. You have to take artistic license with reality if you want to make an interesting and enjoyable game. Mimicking reality is a gimmick that doesn't always work.
After such an experience with Fallout 3, I had no interest in dealing with the game ever again. It just wasn't fun. New Vegas sounds like they threw significantly more into the yawning abyss that is Fallout 3 in an attempt to fill it with something(anything!) to get the mass-energy density above infinitesimal, but they forgot to make it work(and if you go by Yahtzee's critique, they still forgot to make it fun, also).

Nice Yahtzee, totally agree. Hardcore mode was just a nuisance, and hard difficulty was still easy if you went the way you were "supposed to". Bugs aplenty, and all that other stuff, check. Still great fun though, once you hit New Vegas anyways.
Also, yeah soda does dehydrate you more so the game isn't wrong there. Btw found out Matthew Perry is the voice actor for Benny? :O Awesome!

*Yawn* You can put your e-peen away, no one is impressed. Try setting it higher than Easy and you'll find that they can easily close the gap before you can cripple their wings if you aren't careful; especially in the early game when Yahtzee encountered them.Sansha said:
For example, in no special order:Scarecrow 8 said:
* User made mods
* Graphics 100 times better
* Better control with mouse and keyboard
* Thanks to pc, we have games like these - with immersion, while console games is only dumbing down anything. Some console games you only have to press "X" from time to time to complete a game. So no I will not support dumbing down games (meaning buying consoles/games for them).
