Started Fallout 3 again for the first time in idk how long. It didn’t age as bad as I expected. New Vegas + the DLC is so much better. It just is. I disagree, it’s a very good game, but I think Fallout 3 is the best game ever.

I guess I really need to play Fallout 3 and play out the DLC. I don't think I've ever really gone through it. Perhaps I'll do that this weekend. Question though. What level do you have to be at (approximately) for the DLC, and what order do you recommend playing it in? I have it all, but I haven't touched Fallout 3 in ages. I completed all the DLC and different endings on New Vegas, so I've had my share with that game admittedly. Fallout 3 blew my mind when it came out and then I stopped playing it for something else. I have beaten it numerous times since, but I always have found New Vegas to be a bit better. It's probably a top-5 game for me when I boil it down (Ocarina of Time, Silent Hill, Silent Hill 2, Resident Evil 3, New Vegas/Oblivion)... I would be curious about the DLC on Fallout 3. I think the only one I ever even started was Point Lookout(?).

Some other games I've been jumping in and out of... I have a soft-modded PS3 so I can access tons of rare games that go for over $300 on eBay now. I think it's fair pickings, given that scalping is out of control and retro gaming has gotten a big boost and spike in prices since the pandemic and stimulus payments went out.
Rule of Rose (PS2) Very controversial game, banned in a few countries. It's a survival horror game and you have a dog as your companion. I have uploaded the intro to my youtube because of how impressed I was with the graphics for a PS2 game...it also gives you an idea of what the game is like:
Haunting Ground (PS2) Ahh, another game like Rule of Rose, this time developed by Capcom. You are alone in a Mansion, running and hiding to survive, with a dog by your side as your lone companion. This game is known as a spiritual successor to Clocktower 3, and goes for upwards $300 in a box now. It was something I used to rent from Blockbuster at one point... Great game if you're a fan of a game like Clocktower 3. It's not like the old Clocktower games, which were more click and point, but plays homage to Clocktower 3--just without the same in-game effects.
Speaking of...
Clocktower 3 (PS2) I beat this game when I was younger, and absolutely loved it. I had a copy and don't know what happened to it, but got it on my PS3 now. It's still fun, though a little less extreme (the graphic nature of the game initially really shocked me when I first saw it; now it's child's play). Still... the game has some extremely gory parts, murder scenes of a young child, etc. It's a good game in the end and plays very well. Also a Capcom title. The last official Clocktower game barring it's name to come out. Here's to hoping Haunting Ground gets a successor some day, or we see a Clocktower 4 in full effect.
Return to Castle Wolfenstein (Xbox Classic) I used to play this multiplayer on XBL all of the freaking time. It was our go-to game. It brought a ton of hilarity into my life, especially back when you could use the voice changers on XBL. Anyway, I never focused as much on the campaign, as it wasn't co-op online--only offline. And then my copy of the game stopped loading on any console I'd try it on--it just green screened. I installed it to my RGH Xbox 360 and the same thing happened--green screen at the intro. I wound up downloading it (since I own this one anyway) and low and behold, it worked, voila! I plan to play through some of this over the weekend. The single player is supposed to be really good. I've heard it's one of the better Wolfenstein games to come out in the newer age of consoles (have one of the Xbox One games but I've never touched it).
007 Goldeneye XBLA Remake (Xbox Classic) I've gotten a copy of the XBLA remake of Goldeneye, and also gotten a ton of mods for it. I still play it online once in awhile. There's a group on discord that plays and I try to check in now and then to see if there's a game going on. We modded some single player maps into the multiplayer setting, i.e. the Train: I like playing this online, but the group I play/ed with seems to be dwindling. It was pretty exciting when it first launched and I got my RGH Xbox, but now I use the RGH for other things more than Bond...

I also admittedly really, really want the DLC for The Outer Worlds.... But I'm trying so hard to save up money. Last, but not least (and it's funny, because I play video games maybe one day a week in honesty--I don't get around to it much, even with a 3 day weekend... I'm more into multiplayer and my friends just don't play much anymore)... I bought this Zelda mod for N64. It's based off of the game that was going to be on the N64DD but never happened. I guess all you need is an expansion pak to run it, which I still have (thank you DK64). I'm gonna give it a whirl when it eventually comes in the mail...

I think the only one I ever even started was Point Lookout(?). I had all the DLC except for Operation Anchorage. The Pitt was probably my favorite story wise. Point Lookout was fun because it was creepy but I don't even remember the story for it. I never played them in any specific order, aside from Broken Steel but you don't really have a choice for that one.

Played 12 minutes over the weekend. I’m typically not into point and click games but the story and puzzles hooked me. Got every possible ending scenario and achievement. There’s not much replay value to it but it’s a fun and challenging experience.

Aliens: Fireteam Elite. It's good. It nails the Aliens aesthetic. The campaign is basically Horde Mode with not much story thrown in. Usually not my type of game, but I'm glad I got it.

South Park stick of truth. It’s really good. I never played either of the south park games, might have to keep an eye out for them to go on sale later this year. Heard they were fun and both absolutely hilarious. I just finished the final mission of ghost recon breakpoint to get the trophy lol. I’m debating on getting back into AC Valhalla

Yeah same with me, not really a game style I’ve ever gotten into but South Park is almost always a laugh so I’ll be watching for them on sale. I’m starting sniper ghost warrior contracts. I played maybe around 3-4 hours of 3 and gave up with it but I’ve heard that the contract sub series is much better than the mainline games

Can you say where you got it? I bought a translucent orange Nintendo 64 a few years ago and have barely used it. This could give me a reason.

I loved going through the title mode in undisputed 3 or playing with pride rules. Such a fun game and the presentation of the pride mode was awesome . I would love to be able to play those undisputed games again. My 360 finally gave up so I’ve got some old games that are not BC to play on the Xbox one that are in a box in closet. Might have to grab another 360 sometime

Way more fun than the EA games ever thought about being.
