Back into the Wasteland Part B

Well, I didn't expect to be in Vegas like 8 minutes after I wrote that last post. The main story is moving along, and a good portion of the side quests are well thought out and make you actually WANT to complete them. The multiple courses of action I loved so much from FO1 and FO2 (and that were pretty much absent from FO3) are thankfully back this go `round. I plotted and schemed with a cohort of my enemy to ambush my would be killer in his room but ended up running into him on the Casino floor and my plans went to shit. I decided to go kill some time at the tables before leaving the one area of the game I was really looking forward to getting to.

I was a little disappointed that there are only 3 casinos, and that after you win like 10,000 caps they wont let you gamble anymore. That sort of foiled my plan to blackjack my way into having killer gear, but I got a pretty swell piece of armor "on the house" for being a high roller. I have yet to win a single game of Caravan , despite me buying and looting every card that comes my way. I just want to win 3 for the stupid cheevie cheeve :/

I'm back off into the wastelands, headed for Caesar and Fortification Hill....I had to kill even more feral zombies , I mean Ghouls, yeah, they are nothing like zombies. I still plan to do as much as I can before the pending faction choice comes up (spoilers?) Hopefully I can play from that point and see all the endings before doing operation "achievement clean up" I'm strongly considering the expansion packs for this gig (and the ones for Saint Row as well!) and not just for cheevie points.
