Our first off-week adventure takes us into the land of Fallout. A lively debate on Fallout 3 versus Fallout: New Vegas gets top billing, and then we compare the Fallout of today to the Fallout of the past, and try to find out if the old spirit still lives, Featuring Richard Nak, Chi Kong Lui, Brad Gallaway, Tim "The Gambler" Spaeth, and Darren Forman.

Richard Naik
Born and raised in St. Louis, MO, Richard received his first console (the NES) at the age of six, and from that point on games have been an integral part of his life, whether it's been frittering summers away with the likes of Mario, Mega Man, and the Zerg or partaking in marathon sessions of Halo, Team Fortress 2 or Left 4 Dead. After being a longtime reader of GameCritics, Richard joined the staff in March of 2009, and over the years Richard grew into the more prominent role of part-time podcast host.
In 2016, he spearheaded a complete rebuild of the GameCritics.com website, earning him the title of Chief Engineer.
His gaming interests are fairly eclectic, ranging from 2D platformers to old-school-style adventure games to RPGs to first-person shooters. So in other words, he’ll play pretty much anything.

Tim, or anyone else who’s interested in New Vegas, I feel like this mod is a must have. Enter Project Nevada.
I adds a ton of features and largely overhauls the game. For example it adds general features like sprinting, dynamic crosshairs, ability to blow locks open with explosives, new items (that are balanced and found in appropriate locations) etc. etc.
And most importantly, an inventory mangement and sorting system 😛
The mod also tries to avoid making changes that would lead to conflicts with other mods, so the chance that it’d make your game crash should be low.

I never played any of the fallout games but I still enjoyed the podcast.
Podcasting is what Game Critics does best. I hope that the split between the the two podcasting formats keeps at a high frequency.
Mabey Richards podcast could occasionally take on a topical issue format on some gaming issue ?
Hearing Darren Foreman for the first time on GC ( what an accent ), and Tim Speath as a guest always hits my pleasure centres.
