Thanksgiving Update: Beyond the Red Line

Some time ago, I made a post about a third-party modification called Beyond the Red Line.  The mod team behind the project released the above YouTube video in mid August of this year, and from what I can tell, it’s coming along quite nicely.

Fallout 3: I Wish it Was a Shooter
