flashback friday favorite ~ fallout friday
it's fallout friday! ~
yeah i just made that up but i wanted to post all about fallout games today ~
i've spent the summer fully immersed in fallout 4, the latest in the fallout videogame series ~
i first tried fallout 3 on xbox 360 ~ fallout 3
got hooked & went on to fallout: new vegas ~ fallout: new vegas
then fallout 4 on ps4 ~ fallout 4
in a few days the latest dlc nuka world is coming out :D !!! ~ nuka world trailer
the guides & s.p.e.c.i.a.l. perks ~
where else can i live in an old drive-in, convert it into a kitty sanctuary & set up my own toy shop, but in the fallout wasteland ~
here i am, bren, or the professor as some have called me ~
recently i've been working on opening my own little toy & soda shop in the wastes ~
for all your post-apoc toy needs ~
have a nuka cola & peruse the selection ~
we carry vault tec lunchboxes & plastic pumpkins, it's already time to start thinking of halloween! ~
popular favorites like jangles the moon monkey ~
giddyup buttercup & blast radius board games ~
be sure to check the comic book rack for grognak the barbarian, astoundingly awesome tales & the unstoppables ~
& it's time to start thinking about xmas toys too ~
our treat center carries nuka cola, nuka cherry, nuka quantum & vim ~
or if you're hungry we have candy, fancy lad snack cakes, sugar bombs, blamo mac'n'cheese, instamash, salisbury steak, dandy boy apples & more ~
check the display cases for robot models, cool science items or the latest holotape games to play on your pip-boy like grognak, atomic command & red menace ~
lost & found toys at university point in the old pharmacy building ~
note: if you've reached this you're likely a gamer & might appreciate my ghost pix album with videogame soundtrack, full of screenshots of my favorite games & gratuitous lol kitties sprinkled throughout ~ ghost pix album
(firefox or google chrome browser required)
bren
p.s.
visit our videogame gallery playlist on youtube where my son & i play snippets of videogames from nes to xbox 360.. & please subscribe!
this has been a flashback friday favorite post from summer of 2016, also i might add that i was disappointed fallout 76 was not single player & never did have an interest in playing pvp style there, come on, bethesda..
