Video: “He lost his son, so he adopted the streets.”
This video from DefendTheHouse showcases one of Fallout 4‘s lesser-known features: basketball. I call it a “feature”, but what I really mean is, there are basketballs you can pick up and — using the game’s often clunky physics engine — throw, sometimes at basketball hoops that happen to be placed in the game world.
DefendTheHouse took advantage of this to go on a Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden-worthy post-apocalyptic b-ball odyssey, sinking increasingly unlikely shots as they soared majestically — like a younger, radiation-engorged Michael Jordan — over the wasteland.
I guess frequent and overt performance-enhancing drug usage isn’t illegal in the post-apocalyptic NBA. Good to know.
