Dita and Fawkes: Moving to New Vegas
February 4, 2010
Excerpt from "The Misadventures of Dita and Fawkes Vol. 3"
Looks like the humdrum, shut-in life of Dita and Fawkes in Megaton is over because they’re moving to Sin City! Today Bethesda titillated the couple by announcing the new realm for their ever misguided adventures. Judging from what they did to recreate and utterly decimate Washington D.C., there is little doubt that there will be ample excitement for the orgy loving, headhunting, scrap collecting and degenerate gambling couple in the neon soaked, post-apocalyptic playground of Las Vegas. But knowing Dita and Fawkes, packing is going to be a bitch. Expect to see hilarious new installations in the unofficial Fallout 3 comic “The Misadventures of Dita and Fawkes” again this spring as they clean the house in Megaton of all the shit they’ve accrued over the last few years. There are plenty of loose ends to tie up, including “the incident” on Mothership Zeta which Dita has yet to confess to Fawkes.
But until then, we must we sit on our mutant thumbs and endure this teaser trailer which hit the web wide this morning. Be sure to wonder what kind of man the soldier with the red glowing skull is (Sagittarius? Capricorn?) and what kind of atrocity the “Blue Moon” humming servos are covering up. The dreadful burial gives new meaning to the phrase “What happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas.”
Bethesda posted the following on their Fallout 3 official website this morning:
“Experience all the sights and sounds of fabulous New Vegas, brought to you by Vault-Tec, America’s First Choice in Post Nuclear Simulation. Explore the treacherous wastes of the Great Southwest from the safety and comfort of your very own vault: Meet new people, confront terrifying creatures, and arm yourself with the latest high-tech weaponry as you make a name for yourself on a thrilling new journey across the Mojave wasteland. A word of warning, however – while Vault-Tec engineers have prepared for every contingency,* in Vegas, fortunes can change in an instant. Enjoy your stay.”
