Fallout II appreciation post.

[Sean of the Thread]

Yet another game I found in the cd wallet that never got installed years ago. It is old and took me about 15 minutes of getting over the looks but now I'm hooked.

Pretty damn entertaining game. Fun to be in a fight and then out of the blue an enemy yells "You fuking split my skull!" hehe. Well at least it caught me by surprise.

HAHAHa..

I just ran into a random encounter that spawns when you travel around the world map. A man guarding your passage accross a bridge of death. He will let me pass if I answer 3 questions.

What is my name? Pooho of Arroyo
What is my quest? I questfor the holy G.E.C.K. (garden of eden creation kit)

3rd question..
How much can a character carry with a stat of 6 in strength and is also using the strong back perk?

So at this point I get the Monty Python reference.

Bunch of pain in the ass answers... weight calculations one of which is right. The last answer in the multiple choice was "Mm I dunno, how many levels of the strong back perk is said character using?"

HAHAH so I use that answer and the guy screams as his head explodes. I love this game.

Now moments later I just find a sequence called a crashed whale? It is an exploded whale all over the small map and there is a pot of daisies nearby. I don't get it.

It's from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. One of the funniest sequences in the book.

Fallout II is a great game, and Hitchhiker's is a great quasi trilogy

Ahh I see. Damn the references in this game crack me up.

I just had to ask for a part from some supply station and one of the options was for a Moss-Covered, Three-Handled,. Family Gredunza.. heheh. I also ran into some knights looking for the holy hand grenade of antioch as well.

There is a computer in one of the vaults that when you first walk in the room it said. "PING, I say!" as in the machine that goes ping from python as well. Loving this game.

There are some games that you get disappointed when you finish them and I think this is one for me.

Nice little FAQ

Whether this game makes it or not, I'm not sure, but let's cross our fingers.
