Tenpenny Tower
Bethesda felt the need to jam a morality system into Fallout 3, and they blew it. Good and evil make no sense and the moral compass points sideways.
The Brilliance of Mass Effect
What is "Domino Worldbuilding" and how did it help to make Mass Effect one of the most interesting settings in modern RPGs?
Top 64 Videogames
Lists of 'best games ever' are dumb and annoying. But like a self-loathing hipster I made one anyway.
The No Politics Rule
Here are 6 reasons why I forbid political discussions on this site. #4 will amaze you. Or not.
Good to be the King?
Which would you rather be: A king in the middle ages, or a lower-income laborer in the 21st century?
Wonder where they’ve hidden the person who thought of this.
This somehow reminds me of Yahtzee’s review of Call of Juarez: Bound in blood… something about eating danger and s…ting bullets.
I am reminded of finding unopened potato chips (or money) in the trash cans in System Shock 2.
I’m reminded of drinking toilet water in Fallout 3 to heal yourself.
I just picked up on the title: “The Circle of Ammunition”. Awesome.
But now I have The Lion King’s theme stuck in my head…
A little bit off-topic, but I wanted to say I like the new Stolen Pixels logo… it’s been there for a couple issues or so?… with sorta the stolen “O” look — did you make it yourself? (…and, your banner ads here for Stolen Pixels need to be updated, too :) )
I really like the idea of a society of people who eat nothing but guns and poo bullets. I would imagine it’s a very manly society.
From reading the title, I totally thought this was going to relate to the soldier turret’s magical ring of ammunition generation. Anyway, one time while I was driving through northern Texas with some friends, I found a half-dozen 22 bullets in a rest station urinal. I decided to leave them there for the next guy. I guess, in some respects, Texas is somewhat similar to Pandora.
Well, if my memory serves me right, I found my share of shotguns and 10mm pistols (with their respective ammo)in refrigerators in fallout 1 and 2. So, nothing new here. Well, except for the toilets.
