Fallout 3, now with aliens!

Apparently Bethesda doesn’t believe believe a post-apocalyptic world is dangerous or varied enough. Recently released, Bethesda’s newest DLC for Fallout 3 is Mothership Zeta. An add-on in which Aliens have come to earth. This DLC takes the game in an entirely new realm, outer space, as players will go fight some aliens aboard a mothership in orbit around Earth. They will of course be armed with the requisite new armor, weapons, and quests. Fallout 3’s hero, obviously discovered this alien vessel while attempting to join in RPG Land’s Jog at the Moon 2009.

At first I thought about writing dickish half-previews of these games that don’t tell you anything, but then I was like, “What the hell, it’s only once in a lifetime we get to JOG AT THE MOON,” then finished them to write these reviews. I live to serve, kids. Remember that.

Where better to begin our Jog at the Moon than with an update about LUNAR: Silver Star Harmony?
Many gamers have wondered about the dialogue in the upcoming LUNAR port to PSP. At this point in time, XSeed is still evaluating English translation options redarding LUNAR‘s North American version.

RPG Land to JOG AT THE MOON

We needed to do something drastic this summer. Something big — nay, something huge. We should run somewhere! Well, no, how’s about a jog instead? And to where? To the sun? Ef that, let’s go somewhere cooler, literally and figuratively. Sounds like…THE MOON.
