Then you just need to record it from the Screen and then upload it into a video Fomat; it can be refined into something decent looking in editing.

Love this game. Got it for PC, but the file corrupted. Got it for PS3, my dog steps on the case and breaks the disc. I just now bought it for Xbox. Stupidly, i was only level 13 equipped with Thump Thump and Combat armor when o stormed into the Brotherhood of Steel Bunker.

The "ultimate edition" came with all the DLC, and I got it at a used game shop for the exact same price as the standard edition. :lol:

Well, my current play through is a female character with everything focused on unique dialogue options.

The Cherchez la femme and Black Widow perks have kinda turned her into a lesbian as a side-effect, but the damage increase is a nice bonus too.

The thing is, I really don't know how he died. I was just about to enter a shed when the notification noise popped up. When the loading screen was over it said he died even though he was literally a couple feet behind me when I went in.

Thought they'd have to be down to the internal organs for it be lethal. Hell, glowing ones are like 80% irradiated flesh anyway.
By the way, which is better for the level 30 perk: Fitnesse, Strong Back, or level 3 Demolitions Expert?

Strong back big time; Always go for more carry capacity espeically given that you can further enhance it with strong back two.

Eh...It can come in handy if you are fond of taking enemy weaponry.

Like say Super Muntants at black mountain are fond of expensive machine guns but they each weigh thirty pounds a piece got me? plus your own gear and that can overencumber you quickly.

*skips over the entire thread*

I liked aligning myself with the NCR at first, solely because I enjoyed feeling like I was actually helping people, rather than trying and failing to stop super mutants from slaughtering innocent wastelanders guarded by the Brotherhood of Steel in Fallout 3.

However, I eventually realized that the NCR-Legion conflict was just too black and white. Pretty much every faction is either a caring, helpful angel of salvation or a horrible, ruthless monster of destruction. The only truly "bad" thing I could think of with the NCR conquering the Mojave was martial law over the wastelanders, which was infinitely better than the raping, burning, and massive destruction that would follow if I helped the Legion.

I soon began to realize, though, that helping the NCR was necessary for travel throughout the Mojave, since there seems to be a blanket of NCR troops nearly everywhere west of New Vegas, plus numerous bases in the west; it was impossible for me to go places I wanted to go without encountering a squad of NCR conscripts and getting into an annoying firefight with them if I was on the NCR's bad side. The Legion was far less of of problem - just a random patrol here and there on the west side of the Wasteland.

Mr. House, on the other hand, gave me a feeling of just playing into some greedy old bastard's hands and cementing his monopoly on hundreds if not thousands of people, which I was probably doing if I completed his questline. So, that left me with the option of taking over the Mojave myself. After doing so, the ending left me a bit shocked as YesMan told me that he was going to go "upgrade himself to be more assertive", which was basically telling me that that damn robot was going to oust me from power soon after he reprograms himself to be able to.

So, none of the endings are very "good" at all, except for the NCR ending. And that's just about the only thing I absolutely hated about Fallout New Vegas.
