Oops. Was that a wall I just broke?

Something weird happened just now in Fallout 2. I was driving from Broken Hills to New Reno and I got one of those random encounters where the game asks you whether you’d like to meet so-and-so or not. This time it was “a man guarding a bridge”, which sounded intriguing and I opted to check him out.

Hit the jump to see what happened.

Omar Little

Meet Omar — my Fallout 2 character who is obviously inspired by Omar Little from The Wire. Actually, inspired is too inadequate a term: I basically tried to recreate the same guy within the confines of Fallout 2‘s desolate California.

Okami by MochiKome

I just read a very fine review of Okami over on Action Button Dot Net and, it being one of my all-time favourite games for precisely the same reasons that made the reviewer like it, I felt the urge to comment. However, one has to be logged in to do so, and I couldn’t find the registration page. (I know, I suck like that. If you find it, please point me to it via the comments. Thanks!)

Please go and read the review here, because it is completely worth it; and check out my comment after the break.

Read all about it after the break.

  Bottom line: Holmes v. Ripper: Grapple in Whitechapel “has nothing to do with a deerstalker-adorned Holmes fist-fighting a cane- and top hat-wielding Ripper on top of god damn Big Ben.”

Fallout by UndeadBat

Writing this review for Fallout was hard. I’ve already dedicated a post each to most of the things that made any lasting impression on me for good or bad. I thought there was no need to repeat that here, so I would just give you my final verdict. Right.

Now… that’s the tricky part. I’m not sure what I think of this game in the end. I simultaneously loved it and hated it and I just can’t make my mind up one way or the other.

Read on for more of my dilemma.
