As spotted by DSO Gaming, footage created by the YouTube channel TeaserPlay shows what Fallout: New Vegas might look like if it were to be remade today in Unreal Engine 5. As can be imagined, the Mojave Wasteland looks pretty spectacular in this development kit, demonstrating intricate detail as well as some fantastic lighting, as many have come to expect from this engine. It should be pointed out that the video does not represent any remake, official or otherwise, that’s currently being worked on and is just a concept trailer....

The important choices players can make means that Fallout: New Vegas can be quite stressful as the Courier navigates the Mojave wasteland in search of the man who attempted to kill them, while also battling against violent post-apocalyptic tribes. What helps keep the game in the spotlight, aside from its popularity among fans, is the fact that people are still putting out mods for the near 13-year-old RPG. While some modifications are great for visual upgrades, bug fixes, or adding new missions, there are those that may appeal to players who like the gamble of trading in stocks....

However, like all Fallout 4 vaults, this one was the venue of a twisted experiment. Reading through the available terminal entries reveal why Vault 95 even had a clean room, and what befell the former vault residents. It isn’t pretty.

Far Harbor’s main quest asks the player to decide the fate of the island, which is tangled in a war between the Children of Atom and Far Harbor. To make matters messier, there is Arcadia, which is full of synths under the leadership of a complicated character named DiMA who is trying to bring peace to the island through unconventional methods. Every ending has unsettling implications, and players are forced to come to terms with the fact that the path to peace is very difficult....

Science Daily reported on the study, which was originally published in Clinical Toxicology earlier this week, noting that the Noble False Widow, or Steatoda nobilis, originally came from Madeira and the Canary Islands. It was first reported in Britain over 140 years ago, in the 19th century—however, its recent population boom means that the species is poised “to become one of the world’s most invasive species of spider.” In certain regions of the world, the False Widow already reigns supreme: according to the study, in some parts of Britain and Ireland, the species has “become one of the most common species of spiders found in and around urban habitats....

With the surging popularity of Fall Guys over the past week, multiple brands have reached out via Twitter about joining forces with the obstacle course battle royale. Whether these are serious inquiries or merely just cashing in on the popularity is hard to tell, however, that hasn’t stopped players from sharing concepts like a Chuck E. Cheese inspired skin on social media. RELATED: Fall Guys: How to Change Username...

Interestingly, Fall Guys’ Twitter has been quick to get out in front of the complaints and address them head-on, telling fans “we’re currently being review-bombed on Steam.” The page clarified, however, that major fixes are in the works, requesting that players hold off on imparting criticism towards the title until they get a chance to play it as the developers’ intended.

In Arizona, Delaware, New Jersey, and Maine, the 14-day trend of COVID-19 cases has decreased by 16 percent, 18 percent, 36 percent, and 5 percent, respectively, according Covidexitstrategy.org. The New York Times COVID-19 database, similarly showed new cases per capita in the past 14 days decreasing in Arizona, Delaware, and Maine. This comes against a backdrop of spikes COVID-19 in cases in recent weeks, with southern and western states hit particularly hard, and ICU beds running low in a number of locations....

For those who don’t know, the Rock-It Launcher is one of Fallout 3’s more ridiculous weapons. It is classified as a Big Gun in the game and uses a repurposed engine to shoot any junk objects the player wants. This gives players use for all of the random loot they find throughout Fallout 3’s wasteland like silverware, teddy bears, and empty cans. One of the Rock-It Launcher’s greatest benefits is that the ammo can also be picked back up after being shot, making it a great fallback weapon for longer firefights....

This isn’t the first time companies have produced alcohol-fueled crossovers, with Game of Thrones having had its own official HBO tie-in brew for over a year now. It’s a new territory for videogame producers (aside of a small 40 bottle run from the Anomaly: Warzone Earth developers), and it’s a bold move to bring some direct advertising to demographics which might not have otherwised searched for Fallout. Although both soda and beer runs are geographically limited, the hype they’ve generated on a worldwide scale is worth its weight in gold....

As seen below in the brief video from Bethesda Softworks’ YouTube channel, the studio has compiled pieces of gameplay footage alongside snippets of critical reception to remind fans of the plethora of positive reviews given to the game when it launched back in 2015. While this might be incentive for some to give Fallout 4 a go this weekend, the biggest motivation to try the title during its free period starting tomorrow is surely the fact that it won’t cost a dime during the designated play period....

Although the Fallout 4 mod is definitely beneficial, it’s important to note that some of the actual rounds and munitions are locked behind perks that have to be acquired first. So, depending on which type of ammo would-be Vault Dwellers want, players will need to make sure that their Science or Demolition Expert levels for example are at a certain rank before being able to craft them. Xylozi’s creation is without a doubt one of the more useful Fallout 4 mods made since the game’s release....

Fallout 4 modder registrator2000 has created a Bullet Time mod that allows players to blend real-time combat and VATS to their liking. Rather than forcing the player to stay in one position while they fire off their shots at a portion of the enemy’s body, the mod allows players to slow time significantly and fire at will. Players can enter bullet time whenever they see fit and it slowly depletes AP while the mode is in use....

Although such dedication is both inspiring and endearing, it’s important to note that the Fallout 4 modifications are entirely hypothetical, and a bit impractical, especially since those behind the mods haven’t even experienced the game yet. However, Bethesda has said that Fallout 4 will definitely support mods on PC and Xbox One, so the enthusiasm of the aforementioned coders is certainly warranted. But with that said, Bethesda has also made it clear that their priority lies in completing the upcoming title in full before creating the tools and sharing systems for mods....

Taking this into account, it’s no wonder that Fallout 4 ought to have just as many, if not more surprises in store for the myriad playthroughs fans will likely take part in once the game goes on sale in November. As a matter of fact, according to Bethesda’s Lead Producer Jeff Gardiner, Fallout 4’s replay value is unmatched in terms of its sheer volume of content. While speaking to Official Xbox Magazine, Gardiner mentions his extensive time spent with the upcoming game, and praises its ability to continually surprise, saying, “I’ve played the game for probably 400 hours, and I’m still finding stuff that I haven’t seen....

For Fallout 76 players who don’t want to pay or just don’t have the funds to buy Atoms, they can earn Atoms by completing the game’s many challenges. The game features several different types of challenges: daily, weekly, character, survival, combat, social, and world. It should be noted that some character challenges will gift Perk cards instead of Atoms. Moreover, daily challenges only give players 24 hours to complete them and weekly challenges give players a full week....

Developers behind Fallout 76 have confirmed the latest Double experience event takes place over the weekend, with the last one taking place during the 25th-anniversary celebration. Fallout 76 is far from the first title to offer double XP over the weekend, as it has become a common staple for the Call of Duty franchise, as well as Overwatch 2, Red Dead Online, and Battlefield 2042.

In fact, the nukes were bugged because the codes were not properly reset. Because of the way it happened, it seems that someone has to manually change the words found by players, though codes are automatically wiped from the player’s inventory. Due to the New Year, this didn’t get done. Now, Bethesda has disabled the nuclear silos while it works on the code reset. For many players, this could be a serious detriment to playing the game....

Mohammed has a captive audience. Two hours earlier a photographer and I had ventured inside Fallujah’s Jolan neighborhood, the epicenter of last month’s fighting between mujahedin and U.S. Marines, to view the destruction and to gauge emotions in the wake of abuse at Abu Ghraib Prison. We had brought along a local man who assured us that the neighborhood was safely under the control of the Fallujah Brigade, the 1,500-man Iraqi outfit patched together by local notables and Coalition leaders to permit a U....

Even though Nintendo thought what they were doing — trying to recapture their old fan base and bring in even more newcomers — was for the good of the company it actually may have hurt them. This magical number isn’t on the same scale of the losses the company suffered after the 3DS price drop, but it still doesn’t bode well for Nintendo. Here’s how it went down: Reuters is reporting that as a result of the Nintendo press conference, the stock prices of Nintendo took a significant drop, 5% to be precise, but the time lines don’t exactly match up....
