Fallout New Vegas Will Take Some Time To Finish

Fallout is known for a couple things, the main one being its post-apocalyptic setting, but another is that Fallout never falls short of the lengthy RPG experience. Fallout New Vegas will be no different, today according to Pete Hines, Bethesda’s VP of Marketing and PR, Fallout New Vegas will “take you hundreds of hours to explore every nook and cranny”.
Although unlike the series' previous games, Fallout New Vegas will have more in its nooks and crannies than some dirt/rubble. “Vegas is up and running. It is not a ghost town. It still exists and thrives. There are casinos, and you can go down onto the Strip,” explains Hines.
I had a great deal of fun with Fallout 3, but one of its short comings was that it didn't have enough interesting stuff to interact with. There was a lot of stuff to explore, but rarely would it really interest me. I'm happy to see that New Vegas is taking a little different approach to the Fallout series, and hope that it will become a continuing trend.

Doom II RPG out on the iPhone/iPod Touch

If you're a big fan of shooting stuff, hairy arms, RPG's, and space, then I think I've found the prefect game for you. It's called "Doom II RPG" which launched today on the iTunes App Store for the iPhone/iPod Touch platforms. Zenimax(who owns id Software), the games publishers, say that there's about 8 hours of gameplay tucked neatly between all the sweet pixelated blood and gore that Doom usually provides. Here is the game's official description:

"A mysterious distress signal calls your team-two hardened Marines and a rookie scientist-to a Union Aerospace Corporation research facility on Earth's Moon, but you were unprepared for what awaits you. The forces of Hell itself have taken hold of the station and its inhabitants! Zombies and demonic monsters roam the halls, killing all who cross their path. Your backup squad is dead. Mysterious scientists conspire against you. Even the facility's AI cannot be trusted. You are being hunted from all sides. Now, you must fight to survive, and try to stop the invasion-and uncover the truth-by any means available. The fate of all humanity is at stake!"

So if your in the mood to kill some space mutants, and your iPhone/iPod Touch battery, go check out "Doom II RPG" available on the app store now!
