http://www.bethsoft.com/newsletter/images/falloutnv/deadmoney-1.jpg On December 21st, Fallout: New Vegas' first DLC, Dead Money, will be available exclusively on Xbox 360 for 800 Microsoft Points. To give you a sneak peek at the content, Senior Designer Chris Avellone answered a few of our questions about the heist-themed content. Here's the interview… Can you discuss the setting for Dead Money? Dead Money is set in the Sierra Madre, an opulent and extravagant resort that was supposed to be the greatest casino in the west – except that it never opened. Bombs fell before the gala opening, and the Sierra Madre froze in time, its state of the art security system locking the place up tight. Nothing could get in, and none of the guests could escape. Years passed. The climate control and air conditioning system within the facility began to spit toxins into the surrounding city, causing a slow cloud and haze to form over the area - which proved lethal to anyone who tried to explore the city. Only a mysterious group called the Ghost People survived to call the city home, trapped inside what appeared to be hazmat suits and never speaking to their victims... only capturing them alive and dragging them away to the depths of the city deep within the Cloud. And so the Sierra Madre faded from the history books, only occasionally being seen in posters across the wastes, until it took on mythic ghost story status... a supposed "City of Gold" in the Mojave Wasteland where all the treasures of the Old World were rumored to be held. It was kept alive as a late-night saloon story by prospectors who'd claimed to have found maps leading there... and were willing to part with the "map" for a few caps. Or a drink. Or a warm place to sleep. How will the player reach this area? The Sierra Madre is a mythical place in the wastes, with travelers all risking their lives to find it. Only one man truly "found" it - and lived. After the fall of HELIOS One, Father Elijah of the Brotherhood of Steel set out to find new weapons to eradicate NCR. And in the process he found the Sierra Madre. The Courier is lured to the Sierra Madre by a faint radio broadcast advertising the gala grand opening. From a gameplay standpoint, Dead Money is accessed by loading a save file from any point in Fallout: New Vegas prior to the endgame sequence, in the same way as Operation Anchorage, Point Lookout, The Pitt or Mothership Zeta were triggered in Fallout 3. Can you share details on some of the new creatures/enemies players will encounter? This being an extension of Fallout: New Vegas, players will encounter several unique characters, each with their own motivations, all of whom will have to work together if any of them are going to survive. Aside from just struggling with their would-be companions, the courier will also have to deal with the mysterious Ghost People as well as the casino's substantial defense systems.

Now I know that's a euphemism

Is that some sort of euphemism?

I replied. Are you happy?

The first two clues (plus a Mass Effect rifle) point to Aequitas, a planet in Mass Effect 2 known for its "Iron Canyons" and a surface temperature of -128.5F (-89C). It was also the site of a sidemission, N7: Abandoned Mine in which a Reaper indoctrination device turned a research team into husks & abominations. So maybe no ME First Contact. Sad face Wait, Wait. The temperature was recorded in Vostok, Antarctica. There’s a system in Mass Effect 1 called Vostok. DAMN YOU BIOWARE AND YOUR CONFLICTING INTEL!

Something odd is going on over at Bioware. Earlier this week they said that they would reveal a new game at the Spike TV Video Game Awards. Then a small clip of a new game appeared in a trailer for the Spike TV Video Game Award with Bioware’s name on it. On top of all that, they’ve just Tweeted a couple of mysterious images which might somehow contain encoded within it the name of the upcoming game. Put on your best deducing hat, all the clues are assembled below. Item one: a short clip of video, teasing the announcement at the upcoming Spike TV Video Game Awards. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Q9csGJyN8g http://www.pcgamer.c...tease-new-game/ First image: http://social.bioware.com/uploads_user/1000/172/63069.jpg Uncoded “001101010011010100101110001110000011010000110101″ = “55.845″ (the atomic number of Iron) Second image: http://social.bioware.com/uploads_user/1000/172/63070.jpg Uncoded “0010110100110001001100100011100000101110001101011011000001000110″ = “-128.5°F†(the lowest recorded surface temp. on earth) http://social.bioware.com/uploads_user/1000/172/63068.jpg I assume it will be a Mass Effect game because the rifle he's holding looks similar to an Incisor rifle. And I assume it will be an FPS because documents were leaked awhile ago that Bioware/EA were looking for multiplayer programmers. I don't feel like looking for them. Alright I found it. I spoil you guys. With facts that support my theories. Well hypotheses. Theory implies I've done testing. I can't get to my lab, damn bookcase is jammed. What I think it is. Mass Effect: First Contact. Multuplayer/Single player FPS. Single Player: Maybe the protagonist is Zaeed. A squadmate from ME2. He was in the Alliance during the first contact war. Multiplayer: Heavily inspired by BFBC and BFBC2. One side plays as humans on side plays as turians. Full vehicular combat, large maps and biotics/tech powers. SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY! I fully expect to be wrong. But none of you ******s are going to read this. You never read these and I put literally minutes of work into them. *Also you are now aware that the guy in the teaser has a massive neck and ear. Presumably ears.

Those moments that make you sad to know you'll never experience for the first time again. http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs28/f/2008/091/1/8/Andrew_Ryan_by_yahtzeefan.jpg Stop, would you kindly? Would you kindly, powerful phrase. Familiar phrase? Sit, would you kindly? Stand, would you kindly? Run! Stop! Turn. Was a man sent to kill, or a slave? KILL! A man chooses! A slave obeys! OBEEEEEEY! http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/masseffect/images/6/69/MassEffect_2008-08-13_11-16-12-75.png Rudimentary creatures of blood and flesh, you touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding. There is a realm of existence, so far beyond your own you cannot even imagine it. I, am beyond your comprehension. I, am Sovereign. "Reaper?" A label created by the Prothean's, to give voice to their destruction. In the end, what they chose to call us is irrelevant... we simply, are. Organic life is nothing but a genetic mutation, an accident. Your lives are measured in years and decades, you wither and die. We are eternal, the pinnacle of evolution, and existence. Before us, you, are nothing. Your extinction is inevitable. We, are the end of everything. Confidence born in ignorance, the cycle cannot be broken. The patten has repeated itself more times than you can fathom. Organic civilizations rise, evolve, advance and at the apex of their glory, they are extinguished. The Protheans were not the first, they did not create the 'Citadel', they did not forge the 'Mass Relays' they merely found them. The legacy of my kind. Your civilization is based on the technology of the Mass Relays, our technology. By using it, your society develops along the paths we desire. We impose order on the chaos of organic evolution. You exist because we allow it, and you will end, because we demand it. My kind transcends your very understanding, we are each a nation, independent, free of all weakness. You cannot even grasp the nature of our existence.

Television host and science educator Bill Nye collapsed late Tuesday as he gave a presentation at the University of Southern California (USC), the Los Angeles Times reported. According to a student who attended the lecture, Nye collapsed mid-sentence as he was walking toward the podium. “Then after about 10 seconds, he popped back up with much gusto and asked everybody how long he was out for and went on with a story about how a similar thing happened to him that morning,†USC senior Tristan Camacho said, according to the Times. Nye, 54, continued with the presentation but began slurring his words and stumbled against his laptop, according to Camacho, who said that when Nye first collapsed, students were “texting and updating their Twitter statuses†instead of going to Nye’s aid. Nye refused the offer of a chair but was eventually removed from the stage. The Los Angeles Fire Department and USC’s department of public safety were called to the scene at Bovard Auditorium, but it was unclear whether Nye received medical treatment. Nye is best known for hosting the “Bill Nye the Science Guy†television series, which originally aired from 1993 to 1997 and won multiple Emmy awards. http://www.nypost.co...sD8cVpZPm3sYWBM **** THOSE GUYS AND **** YOU TWITTER! This man fueled my childhood love of science. And my teenagehood love of Quantum physics. It's a word. It's in the becktionary.
