Lightning Challenge!!!


  A few posts back you may remember me talking about my Mario Kart Mission.  You know, the one where I set out to get the max amount of points in Mario Kart DS versus mode.  As you may remember, I discovered that the counter maxed out at 999.  It took around three to four thankless hours to uncover this useless bit of knowledge, but the enjoyable time I had working my way to that number encouraged me to ask you all a question: "Do any of you have any other pointlessly long video game tasks you would like me to carry out?" A received one reply from one "Inazuma" who asked if I could essentially, 100% complete the game "Fall Out 3." After this request, I noticed a sense of regret grow inside of me.  Maybe I shouldn't have asked that question, haha!  Still, I have decided that I am going to go for it!  I am currently occupied with a game named "Cross Edge" for the PS3, but as soon as I beat it ( you will see a review for it here I am sure) I shall embark on a quest to explore every nook and cranny of Fall Out 3, to earn every single trophy, to complete every single side quest!!  Throughout this challenge, I will post periodic updates here to let you know how I am faring.  Also, I will let you know when I have officially started the challenge, as, like I mentioned before, I must first complete Cross Edge.  Anyway, get ready for me to waste a good chunk of my life that I will never earn back!  Send me food or something to help me get through it!

  1. Seriously?! Wow.. I'm not even sure if it's possible to do on a single playthrough... But even if you get somewhat close, you deserve some serious respect!

  2. Possible on a single play through, I doubt it. Certain trophies involve reaching a certain level with certain karma, in other words, I would need at least 3 play throughs, haha, I had not thought of that... Still, I will get as close as possible! Almost done with cross Edge so I shall start soon!

  3. Oh, one thing that I don't know if it's the same with fallout as oblivion... Some quests you cannot complete because they're "optional" and you've already done another quest that eliminated that character.... It sounds confusing the way I'm explaining it. It's just that last night I had that experience with the Dark Brotherhood where I had to go in and kill off all the characters who had been so helpful to me.... and in doing so I was unable to complete a quest that one of the characters had given me (the quest was Dark Gift, just in case you care). So. Anyway, my conclusion, it's going to be impossible for me to complete Oblivion 100%... Not that I'm really shooting for it but I have wasted over 100 hours just exploring and questing.
