Singin' the Old World Blues

With 1280 Microsoft Points burning a hole in my account and an ongoing Fallout: New Vegas obsession, I figured it was time to pick up some DLC.

I had heard good things about all three of the currently released expansions, Dead Money being the least popular (though not to say it's bad). Old World Blues seemed like the best choice.

Fallout 3 handled DLC well, in that all items could be brought back to the main world. Only Old World Blues in New Vegas allows this, which is strange. OWB also allows haircuts, facial reconstruction, and skill reset. The first two were available in Fallout 3 without additional content, so I always wondered why New Vegas didn't have them.

I'm Shippin' Down to Cincy...

 ... to find my wooden leg. Wait, that's not right. Does anybody else hear accordions?

Starting next week, I will moving from Columbus, Ohio to Cincinnati (also known as "Cincy" or "CinciNasty"*) for an extended period of job training. Once again, it seems that my dear electronic gaming media and I will be parting ways, at least for a while.
