Marcus was alright, he was no Harold though.

Well do we know what it canon concerning what happens to Harold in FO3? I think Harold and his story are done, though. It'd be alright if it stayed that way. Plus, he ain't moving if he's still alive.

I like Marcus more than Harold. Not even joking.

You know it's funny, my 2 favorite characters from the series aren't human. Marcus and Desmond.

I want a pack of intelligent deathclaws. According to the fallout bible, they could survive. It's a dominate gene, and goris can still mate with a "Dumb" female, thus having eggs of both males and females to mate with there "dumb" counter parts, ad infinitum.

wow he does look good... good job Obsidian. Also, obviously the alps are in the american desert... yeesh learn some geography noob!

Harold could make it west if he beleived. If there's a will, there's a way.

You prefer Marcus? you sir, are strange hahaha. Also is Desmond the ghoul in point lookout? Or is there a Desmond in Fallout 1 or 2 i fail to remember?

Rene Auberjonois who played Odo form DS9 is going to voice Mr. House!
And Marcus voiced by Michal Dorn aka Worf is back from FO2! I was kinda hoping he'd be back...
Gotta love ST actors doing voice work for video gaming...
Trejo is an awesome choice for Raul. Now he's not just a Ghoul but a badass Latino Ghoul!
Kistofferson's voice as the "grizzled soldier" again another good choice.
...and of course Wayne Newton is practically the personification of Vegas so yeah, awesome cast... :thumbsup:

Haha, I was so distracted by Marcus (looks great!) that I hardly realised that there was SNOW there.

And I see a super mutant in the background. Interesting.

Maybe Marcus's BOS friend Jacob is the creator of this town? So many things to think about.

That's actually a pretty darn faithful 3D version of Marcus, I'm impressed.

I like Marcus more than Harold. Not even joking.

As do I. Harold was great, especially since he's been around since the original Fallout, but Marcus is just cooler in my opinion. The article doesn't mention Marcus being a companion, but I certainly hope he is since I imagine that there will be a Super Mutant companion.

Maybe Marcus's BOS friend Jacob is the creator of this town? So many things to think about.

Marcus and him founded Broken Hills together. I imagine that Marcus founded this particular settlement after leaving Broken Hills and named it after Jacob since the two were good friends.

That wouldn't make much sense unless you can travel to a couple new areas away from the Mojave desert in the vanilla game. The snow has definitely made me confused.

I seriously wasn't expecting Marcus to look that good! He even has his trademark armor! Yeah!

Jacob would be dead by this time. maybe the town was founded by Marcus in honor of Jacob.

edit- i guess he could have founded before he died and Marcus took over after he died

i doubt it. they already have a ghoul companion

» Fri Dec 24, 2010 8:03 am

Yes, the main character in Point Lookout. I just thought he was awesome, and I hope to see him return in later games.

This is great. But which companion do i chose Zach or Felicia. The choice is too difficult :brokencomputer:

EDIT: Marcus looks awesome aswell

» Fri Dec 24, 2010 7:36 am

well if marcus is a companion then im picking him over anybody. well depends how awesome raul is

yea he was alright. I have yet to beat point lookout but i did the battle in the mansion and i thought he was fairly awesome.

» Fri Dec 24, 2010 7:57 pm

well if marcus is a companion then im picking him over anybody. well depends how awesome raul is

If Marcus is an option then i will defiantly chose him as a companion in one of my play throughs.

» Fri Dec 24, 2010 9:20 pm

actually i haven't heard of a single companion i didnt like

stupid article is stupid
http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gamehunters/post/2010/08/fallout-new-vegas-increases-its-talent/1

- Zachary Levi's playable character Arcade is a member of the Followers of the Apocalypse who hides a mysterious past.

-- Another newcomer who will be familiar to video gamers is Felicia Day (The Guild), who voices the playable character Veronica, a sarcastic Brotherhood of Steel scribe.

-- A third playable companion is Raul the Ghoul, a mechanic and former gunslinger voiced by Danny Trejo (From Dusk Till Dawn).

Unless I've missed something basic, the companions are not playable. Playable would mean that you could control them instead of your own character. As far as I know you can only give them orders through the companion wheel. What a misleading article.

Noticed something in the background, see that mutant behind marcus on the left, to the right of him is what looks like humanoid.
Is that... A trog!?!!?

I want a pack of intelligent deathclaws. According to the fallout bible, they could survive. It's a dominate gene, and goris can still mate with a "Dumb" female, thus having eggs of both males and females to mate with there "dumb" counter parts, ad infinitum.

If they do bring back ID's then they should bring 'em back for an expansion or another game.
Cause I think it's starting to get a bit too much with re-hashing.
I'm glad that stuff like NCR, Desert Rangers, Crimson Caravan, Followers Of The Apocalypse, Marcus and Raul are back but they can do a massive fail on New Vegas if all they do is bring back old stuff.

So I think they should leave ID's to an expansion or another game.

Wait, so Arcade and the Scribe are companions??!! Hell yeah! I can have an ex-Enclave soldier.
