Modding (as though it were a deadline :) ). Also planning mods that might be possible to do in New Vegas.

(Might play FO3 into the DLC's if I finish Bloodlines first and have any spare time).

Ehhhhh, nothing as crazy as other. I just have a countdown chart I cross off each day. I pre-ordered a collectors edition, and I obsessively consume any new information like a starving wastelander.

Blast disturbed and wait, really.


Though I'm thinking of making a "Let's Play: Fallout 3" series in the mean time. New character, from day one. I have this nice Alyx Vance outfit mod that I'm thinking about building a character around.

I'm playing Fallout 3 at the moment but I really want to buy the Fallout trilogy and play Fallout 2 a little bit before New Vegas comes out. I'm studying the history of the Fallout franchise a lot. Same as Colonial I have a countdown calender and I'm obsessively consuming information about New Vegas.

+1 - working like October 19th is release day, when all I'm doing is converting things in preparation (lol).

Took vacation days from work, pre-ordered CE edition from GameStop, letting bosses know I am going to Vegas. :hubbahubba:

Pooping my pants and waiting for NV. Obsidian has already finished the game itself (That's good and bad :P No new features, but release will be soon) and they are squishing and fixing bugzillas in the game

Starting Sixth Form this coming Friday (sixth form is basically 16-18 education here in England, one of the possible options anyway), got Killzone 2, Mafia 2 and a few other games to last me until late October when I get the Collector's Edition for New Vegas, from then it will be purely Fallout for a month or two XD, maybe even longer...

I started a new FO3 character, trying to make a "perfect build", my last character was almost there but was short on one stat, by about 25 points and I didn't really pay attention to the DR based perks like Cyborg so also I'll try to max the "natural" DR on the next build. I was contemplating having a go at my backlog of games.

I still have to start Bioshock and I still have to finish GTA IV. I was mostly through the first 2 islands, then trophy support came out for the PS3 and I started a new character, but I didn't go to far with it since I got the FO3 DLCs for the PS3 and went back to playing that. I may just hold out with FO3 until FONV comes out, well OK that and a few random skirmishes in Fat Princess, that game is pretty addicting too... =p

Spending time with my wife. Working. Playing the "Rise of Mankind" mod on Civ 4 - Beyond the Sword, (it takes about 2 - 3 weeks to finish a game with a huge map). Playing alittle FO3 so my combat skills don't fall off while waiting for FONV to come out. Watching movies that I haven't gotten around to watching until now.
