Do we really have to talk about Aliens

No, you don't have too, but I enjoy it.

Are we sure the 'space suit' armor is alien in origin? I seem to recall...

Spoiler

a preview of a location in the game where Ghouls are attempting to launch each other into space. REPCONN I believe it was called. It seems entirely more likely this is where you'd pick up a space suit.

Alright, after watching those videos I have some things to question on.

Does anyone notice the clunkiness of the 3rd person view? It seems very unnatural to me.
Also, at a part of the video it said you received a "10mm laser sight mod." Does this mean we have different types of scopes/silencers to equip to a weapon?
Will there be a "10mm rifle scope mod" or a "10mm binocular scope mod?"

I honestly wasn't a huge fan of the X-Play Fallout: New Vegas special

I was informed that there will be three pre-defined mods to most non-unique weapons. Say you find a scope, but said scope can only be fastened onto the weapon it designates.

Yes that is what it is.

Everytime I watch a video of FONV, I say "GOTY"
In 1 week, just to remind you, the best game of this year will come out, prepare yourself.

I now look forward to seeing if Lilly has a reaction to you walking into a brothel in New Vegas.

Maybe have her start beating you with her purse while yelling that she raised you better than that followed by her dragging you out by your ear. It would just be weird if you walked in there and she's standing around like she wants to say "have fun, dear!".

I wonder if they even allow supermutants in Vegas. We all know mutants are more accepted in the west but House is a man with more oldschool values in mind than most of the wastes.

Her disapproving of the strip club.

Her disapproving of the strip club.

None that I none of.

She seems to carry a sweet (but crazy) granny persona about herself so I was wondering how she would react to certain unusual places and services you bring her along with you on.

Oh sorry I had to re-read your post I thought you said you like how she responded when you go to the strip club, as if you've seen it.

weirdly, its smoother...yet...clunkier...huh. but on a sidenote of awesomeness, the animations for things are way more improved (look at the gecko's, they seem perfectly smooth in animation)
