Yea I played the hell out of Fallout 3, New Vegas, and Skyrim. I actually got the collector's edition of Fallout 3 from the PX that came with the artbook, DVD, bobblehead, and lunch box (and it was $20 cheaper than the standard version that was sitting right next to it!!!) Anyway, ever since then, I've kept all my bottle caps from beer and store them in the lunch box. Weird, right? lol

Fallout 4 should be coming next year, and may be officially unveiled at E3 next month. It's supposed to take place in the New England area.

Yea!! One of my best friends is from Boston and also a gamer - he was telling me all about it. I can't wait. There are very few video games that I finish (compared with the number that I start and my massive backlog/works-in-progress...) but the Fallout series is one of them. I'm gonna go back and play the first three on computer (F, F2, and F Tactics) that I got from GOG.com... someday haha!

I never played the original isometric FO games, just 3 and NV. I was never a big fan of the old isometric RPGs. I have a buddy in Finland who eats, sleeps and breathes those old FO games, and he keeps telling me to play them.

haha might take some family shots in a little while here; I just bought a JPXI from a guy over on SSo that's signed by the master himself (and Rudess) - so when that gets here, I'm gonna take some EBMM family pics and then maybe do a panoramic shot with all my axes - I have 5 Carvins as well that would like in on the action.
It really is, in my opinion, the pinnacle of guitar production. There are other guitars that I want (an AL, for one) but I literally can't imagine a guitar that looks better, plays better, sounds better, or is more versatile than the Maj. I think the ONLY possible way they could improve it is if they allowed full functionality of the Game Changer that's already installed. I dislike the Reflex. But otherwise, it is THE perfect guitar.

There's no buzz in my Majesty.
Haha. Get it? Because "buzz" means excitement about the guitar as well as the string vibrating too close to the frets, which is bad.
*taps microphone*
Is this thing on?

Actually, I like my action so low that there's some buzz in the lower strings on the lower frets! I think, especially with new strings, it adds a kind of cool metalic ring to the notes of chords in an ultra-clean tone and makes them sound even more open and ringy.
But to be honest, there's a part of me that hopes the Majesty is a so-so seller so they're rarer. I'm enjoying my slight time being the only one in the state of Hawaii to have one (at least the first, no idea if I'm the only one any more...) and I hope the guitar world doesn't become super-saturated with them. They're amazing instruments, so unless people are just turned off by the shape, god knows why, they should really out sell the JPs in my opinion.
I think Petrucci literally is the reason the Ernie Ball company is so successful ... I mean, have you seen the Armada? What were they thinking?!?!?! haha j/k I kinda want one in a morbidly curious way...

You have no idea. I have actually been to midnight video game releases and I'm 38.

The Majesty has absolutely divided the guitar world. You either "get it," or you don't. Those of us who have can hold our heads proud because we own one of the greatest rock guitars ever made.
I don't hate the Armada, but it's simply not on my list of must-have instruments. Not because of its design, but mostly I just don't care for Les Pauls, and the Armada most certainly looks to fill that void in MM's line up. They have the Silhouette for Strat lovers and the JPs for shredders. A big problem with the Armada (as I see it) is it is way too expensive. If I were in the market for a LP-style guitar, I would be more inclined to go with the Armada, if anything because Gibson's QC is reprehensible. Even spending $2000 on a U.S.A. Gibson, you have no idea the shape the guitar will be in. There are U.S.A. Gibsons hanging in my local GC that have such blatantly obvious QC problems that you wonder if anyone is even really running Gibson anymore.
