I am Mog Anarchy, and I like to play games. Whether they are old, new, retro, modern, online, offline, console, computer, critically acclaimed or notoriously bad. Here on my blog, I rant about, review, trash talk, praise and generally talk about all of my favourite and least-favourite games. I also write my own guides on how to accomplish tricky tasks, show off my creative endeavors and challenge myself with crazy in-game tasks. I also have a bunch of gaming merchandise which I am glad to show off. So drop me a comment, I love hearing your questions, criticisms, comments and general gaming discussions. :)

Tour Of My Fallout: New Vegas Lucky 38 Suite!

I've clocked a good few hundred hours into my Fallout: New Vegas save recently, and one of my favourite things to do is to decorate the player houses. I feel Fallout 3 was a bit lacking in this area, the choices of potential houses being limited to one of two, both being fairly small - New Vegas has the choice of the mammoth Lucky 38 suite; along with the Novac hotel room, The Sink, Father Elijah's underground bunker, the other casinos' high-roller suites etc.

Obviously, because I'm both a collector and a hoarder (I honestly pick up EVERYTHING), I needed a large space to display all of my stuff. I managed to grab all of the unique weapons and clothing, along with a collection of different unique items and DLC exclusive stuff.

While I didn't use any mods, I did use a few console commands to spawn some new furniture items in my house, like the electric hot plate in the kitchen (so I can cook), the toy box in the bedroom, the Nuka-Cola fridge in the games room etc. I also needed to use console commands to obtain the items that would be obtainable legit, but would only be available during the last story mission (i.e. Legate Lanius' helmet).

So, enjoy my 13-minute tour of my Lucky 38 suite, complete with bumbling narration:



I'm currently playing through Fallout 3 again, but I'm using a mod that allows ownership of both the Megaton house and the Tenpenny Tower suite - so I'll have two smaller houses, instead of this huge one. Console commands for new furniture may be applied, we shall have to wait and see. :)

Minecraft Creations: Mario Sprite Art

Today on Minecraft Creations, I present to you: the sprite art statue that likely every single Minecraft player has made at some point, likely their first attempt at sprite art: 
Yes, an 8-bit Mario from the original Super Mario Bros. on the NES. I did attempt to mix up the formula with a palette swap, using Mario's colours from the modern era, rather than the collection of brown/orange/red that the NES used.

Fun fact: the very first recorded instance of sprite art in Minecraft was an 8-bit Mario; made from dirt, wood and cobblestone - uploaded within like the first hour that the Minecraft servers ever went live. Seriously, Google it. If you've never made one yourself, you know what you need to do. :)
