I didn’t fully grasp the wide breadth of style and pure ambition from the folks over at GUNNAR who provided us with a pair of their Fallout Vault 33 glasses. Coinciding with the release of the Amazon Prime show, these Fallout-themed spectacles provided me with even more ease while also providing me with a sense of comfort. Similar to the Call of Duty glasses I reviewed before, GUNNAR embraces them...[Read More]
Over the last decade and a half, RPGs, especially Bethesda RPGs have been a guilty pleasure of ours. Yes, I was known as the shooter reviewer for a variety of sites but when I wanted to unwind from competitive shooters, I chose RPGs to unwind. Despite Skyrim releasing in 2012, it was not my RPG of choice; in fact, I didn’t play it until 2020 during the covid lockdown. What was easily our go-...[Read More]

The nearly hour and a half long stream showed off a plethora of new titles coming to Xbox consoles both this year and next. Bethesda’s presence during the show was very evident, with...[Read More]
I’m from the state of West Virginia, which I was raised a good chunk of my life. Back when Fallout 76 was announced I was excited where the game was based and for me to explore places I’ve been to over the last 20 years. Fast forward to today, and Bethesda has revealed new details on Fallout 76’s Wastelanders latest patch and other information and other details. Below is as follo...[Read More]
A few months ago in October Obsidian revisited the first-person RPG genre that they earned praise for with Fallout: New Vegas. Their new IP allowed them to create new and exciting ideas and locations while expanding on some existing ideas. The writing was fun and the entire experience was an adventurous romp of vintage science fiction, down to the old school 50’s space guns and graphic desig...[Read More]
It’s hard to go into The Outer Worlds and not think about Fallout, especially since Obsidian boldly declared in their reveal trailer “creators of the original Fallout” and “developers of Fallout: New Vegas”. This reveal also had the benefit of coming in the wake of the poor reception of Fallout 76, which felt like a big departure from the series roots as a single player RPG experience. The story d...[Read More]

Despite the multitude of arguably offensive flaws, I am having a really good time with Fallout 76. Although, I must admit that I am a member of the game’s super specific target audience. Built on the framework established by Fallout 4, which was built on surprisingly old Creation Engine, Fallout 76 feels more like an ambitious mod or expansion than a new game. That aside, the setting of West Virgi...[Read More]
Bethesda has partnered up with Xbox and HYPERMAKER to bring you #HelmetsforHabitat. HYPERMAKER is an online fashion and streetware store known for its wide range of custom art. This initiative will auction off custom designed Fallout 76 T-51 power armor helmets to raise money for Habitat for Humanity.
“Almost Heaven”. “Wild and wonderful”. “The Mountain State”. You might’ve heard West Virginia called such as these many times, but until you experience this beautiful countryside for yourself, you might not know exactly how apt these descriptors are. Now, travel can be expensive. Fortunately, when Fallout 76 releases on November 14 of this year, Bethesda Game Studios is providing an inexpens...[Read More]
With the impending release of Fallout 76, it’s well worth taking a look back at the eight previous Fallout universe games to grace various screens. Presented here we have writer Aaron’s ranking for the previous games in the franchise.
Well, if this is real, someone is in deep trouble! A leaked list was found online that lists all the games that are being showcased for each E3 Press Conference, with some quite interesting titles in the list. Now, we are taking this list with a grain (maybe even pound or even a ton) of salt, so we are not saying this is a legit list. For all we know, someone made up their E3 fantasy list and leak...[Read More]
