For functions, I like the 'Doc. Finally had the option to stop my character looking so pale she seemed to glow green around the plants in Zion... I'll try re-implanting the other body parts now.
For making me laugh, including with his ending slide when I finished, the Apocalyptic Toaster. plus he gave me my Glowing more detailed-looking Saturnite Fist.

All the rest have their charm, and its nice to chat with them if not as nice going around the crater finding their various upgrades and sub-systems.

You can switch back and forth as many times as you want.

Could someone with a xbox confirm that companions can come with you to the sink, once you've beaten the DLC. I need to know if my companion is just buggy in his reaction.

Doesn't matter what system you're on, the only way you can get core game companions into Old World Blues is through the multi-humanoid companions glitch. And even then, it might not work.

Unfortunately really, because my female courier would likely attempt to sleep with Veronica by promising her ten minutes sifting through the tech.

And Boone would likely end up fighting the toaster in a duel, with muggy as the ref.
