Look at the nice fellow in the featured image of this article. Look into his eyes. Look at the slightly awkward grin plastered across his face at the moment in a YouTube video on his channel that I've chosen to pause and take a screenshot. …

Fallout: New Vegas gets a Mojave interpretation of Oblivion's Dark Brotherhood, thanks to this assassin-focused faction quest mod

While there's never been any shortage of characters who'll pay you to splatter some brains across the desert with your trusty anti-mat rifle in Fallout: New Vegas, a new mod adds a whole extra faction based around being a post-apocalyptic a…

Fallout Chicago is a new mod based on the best game in the series, and you can play now

Fallout New Vegas is comfortably my favorite Fallout game. Aside from the iconic setting, Obsidian perfected the first-person formula and Bethesda has never risen to the gauntlet it so valiantly put down. From Caesar's Legion to the difficu…

A "Cowboy Coalition" battle NCR corporate imperialism in this freshly released Fallout: New Vegas quest mod

Yee haw. If you've ever thought Fallout: New Vegas is a little low on folks in stetson hats whose spurs jingle, jangle, jingle, then this new quest mod will almost certainly be in your saloon. That's provided you're up for an unapologetical…

"Step into the shoes of NPC man" with this Fallout New Vegas mod that lets you get faction cronies to do your dirty work

Rubbing shoulders with factions is a big part of the Fallout: New Vegas charm, even if it often devolves into you doing a bunch of favours if you don't want to risk ending up on the vilified naughty list for one too many accidental grenade …

Recently unearthed Fallout: New Vegas builds could be "incredibly useful" for modders, preservationists claim

Pre-release builds of Fallout: New Vegas recently unearthed at a shop in Utah contain rare files which could be "incredibly useful" to expanding what modders can do with the RPG. Well, at least they doe in the estimation of the folks who cl…

Ok, yep, it's one of RPS' biggest New Vegas/Fallout heads, here to tell you about some New Vegas mods that've recently dropped. Why? You might ask that. You're quite right to. It's because there's a general Fallout modathon going on over on…

MacVulpes InCulkin stares at a guy spitting blood, as Fallout season 2's latest trailer sets up many family searches

Ok, before you get angry, all I know is that the Home Alone guy's playing someone either in Caesar's Legion or who dresses as a member of Caesar's Legion, not that he's nailed on to be wolf hat bloke. I just liked the headline. Now that dis…

Obsidian knows we want "the next Fallout New Vegas," but it's finding more "joy" in original creations like The Outer Worlds 2

I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't go berserk if a new Fallout New Vegas got announced - especially if Microsoft and Bethesda let Obsidian take the reins again. While other entries come close, it remains my favorite game in the post-apocalyp…

New fan-made Fallout New Vegas remaster is the game I wish Bethesda would make

There are only a handful of games that I believe need remasters at present. Dragon Age: Origins is the first. BioWare's seminal fantasy romp had so many brilliant, original ideas that deserve another chance to shine. Besides, I've still nev…

Forget the Lucky 38, an Oblivion Remastered modder has added a swanky penthouse suite to the Imperial City's tallest tower, delivering the best view in Cyrodiil

Yep, an Oblivion Remastered modder has done the thing all of us have secretly wanted for years. They've stuck a penthouse at the summit of the Imperial City's White-Gold Tower, so you can live far above the potato-faced NPC masses and take …
