This Thanksgiving, some ...[Read More]

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]

“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]
