I’ve logged around 40 hours playing Fallout 3 so far - mainly just wandering around and running side missions. I called myself paying special attention to shelves and desks and such in order to locate the 20 bobbleheads the can be found through the wasteland. I’ve yet to see ONE. Apparently I’m blind. Or slow. Or both…
So in case anyone else is out there feeling my pain, I found a very good post that shows you all the Fallout 3 bobblehead locations and gives you instructions for obtaining them. You can check it out here. Enjoy!

New DLC is coming for Fallout 3! In January, Bethesda will release Operation: Anchorage. This DLC will put you into the battle for Anchorage, Alaska for liberation from the Chinese Communist invaders. In February, you’ll be able to explore a new Raider town named Pitt located in post-apocolyptic Pittsburgh.
The third wave of DLC for Fallout 3 is the one I’m most looking forward to. In Broken Steel, you’ll be joining the Brotherhood of Steel and continue the original adventure by eliminating the remains of the Enclave from the Capital Wasteland.
My question is whether players can continue the side missions they failed to complete during the first run-through of the game. I’ve heard from many people that they didn’t realize they wouldn’t be able to continue exploring the Capitol Wasteland once they beat the main quest in Fallout 3. I guess you can always go back to a save game, but that seems a bit hokey to me.

For the second year in a row, the Arkansas Razorbacks defeated the LSU Tigers. This time we did it at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock. Some friends and I went to see the game, and it was a good time. We didn’t look too hot going into the fourth quarter but mounted a massive comeback.
We were sitting in the corner of the end zone right in front of London Crawford’s game winning catch. Way to go Hogs!

The iPhone’s version of the Safari browser was designed to let you surf web sites as if you were in a normal browser on a normal computer. It brings the “real Internet” to a handheld device. That being the case, I don’t understand all these sites springing up with “made for iPhone” designs where you get a slimmed down version of the real site and in all the cases I’ve seen, far less features.
I wanted the iPhone so I could do everything I can do in my laptop’s web browser (and for various other reasons). For the most part, I don’t want to see a pocket version of a site. There are exceptions such as sites that focus on news content where I can see headlines in a quick fashion and without all the other clutter. I must admit that is handy. However, my advice to those sites is this: If you’re going to iPhone-ize your site, provide a link to view the original web site as well. You might be surprised how many iPhone users click on that link.

To all of you who are trying to beat all 50 waves on Horde in Gears of War 2, I have one piece of advice - use the Mansion map. Run out front and grab the boomshot and then haul butt inside to the top of the stairs. Get a buddy and each of you post up. Start killing everything coming through the front door. A few brutes will show up in the side doors but not enough to worry about, and you can kill them easily.
Once you kill a mauler, find time to grab his shield and plant it in the front door. Hell, plant two shields if you can pull it off. Kill everything coming in the side doors and then watch as all the Locusts line up outside the front door. Grab the Torque Bow or Sniper in the center of the floor upstairs and gear up for some target practice!
It took three of us to finally make it through all 50 waves, and we used those shields religiously.
Happy Stomping!
