Better Inventory System for Skyrim?
This is a game I'm really looking forward to - and it sounds like some real thought has gone into the chokepoints of its predecessors:
"RPGs send you into menus more than almost any other game genre, so it's weird that more thought doesn't go into inventory design, but as I play around with powers, weapons and items to lighten my load it becomes clear that Skyrim is a welcome exception. Its nested menus are accessed almost as smoothly as iPad page swipes, and navigating them is quick and clean. You can set favorites, equip items to either hand, and examine things in detail. More than once during my brief hands-on I have to rotate an object to look for a clue to a puzzle, or read a document, and it's all done without going to a different screen or do anything more complex than wiggling sticks and hitting a face button. It's easy to imagine that a system like this in Oblivion or Fallout could have shaved hours off the average player's actual game-time.

Updated the Fallout Feeds
I noticed this morning that the feed for our Fallout podcast only contained episodes 3-22 - when I set up support for the feed (a long time ago now), I defaulted it to 20 items. I just popped that limit up, so when iTunes updates, the full list of episodes should show up there. Of course, you can always visit the archive pages :)

Hawke Gets to Leave Kirkwall
The first DLC for DA2 is coming out, and it looks like you'll get to leave Kirkwall. With luck, you'll get new maps, too:
The announcement tells you to "Leave Kirkwall", and explore a prison constructed by the Grey Wardens. You will have to foil a criminal cartel that's taken a violent interest in the Hawke family lineage. The expansion promises several new locations, Darkspawn enemies, a new class specific weapon and more achievements.
The Fallout Way
This image pretty much says everything you need to know about the Fallout series of games:

Murphy Visits Minecraft Wiki
The Minecraft Wiki (and forums) are still down as I write this - from what the site owners say, it looks like Murphy visited them - good and hard.
I had been wondering whether that botched FBI raid was part of the problem, but I guess it's a far more mundane issue.

Old World Blues In July
The next DLC for Fallout: New Vegas
"Old World Blues," the third DLC pack for the game -- joining Dead Money and Honest Hearts -- arrives for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC on July 19.
With the glitches they've had on the first two, this isn't necessarily a bad thing - so long as the don't repeat the glitchiness, of course.
