It's not the years it's the mileage: Dragon Age Origins (PC)

DA:Origins is an awesome sandwich where the bread is the awesome and a zeppelin of hot air is the meat. Of the 80 hours played the first 10 and the last 10 were the best parts, with tedious and endless side quests filling out the middle 60.

50 hours later & all I have to show for it is this lousy power armor: Fallout New Vegas (PC)

Fallout:New Vegas is a slow burn but not in an awesome roast-a-pig-in-a-backyard-firepit kind of way, more a boil-a-frog kind of way. So much time is invested that by the time it's over a beaten down Stockholm Syndrome sets in, goading the player to make it to the pay-off to justify the time investment.


As The Courier (when you are actually one of many couriers) you start the game in a grave, a bullet lodged in your skull. Rescued by a overly friendly robot (that conveniently shows up all over the place), The Courier is mended by a small-town doctor and set out into the world with a single quest-find the man that betrayed him/her.

Return of the glitch: Fallout New Vegas

A travelog in pictures of my adventures in New Vegas, most of the glitches happened early on but were funny nonetheless.
