New Fallout 4 Mod adds different/unique ending cinematics to all factions
https://www.dsogaming.com/pc-performance-analyses/new-fallout-4-mod-different-unique-ending-cinematics-for-all-factions/
SixtyMinutemen and Toro Montana have released a new mod for Fallout 4 that adds alternate ending cinematics for faction choice. This mod is basically an enhanced version of an older one (from the same team), so feel free to upgrade if you’re using “iMod’s Alternate Ending Cinematics for Fallout 4”. This mod, like the original, aims to bring some semblance of faction choice endings to Fallout 4. Thus, it can give you the illusion of choice, rather than the uniform cutscene vanilla Fallout 4 had. The modders used iMod in order to create these cut-scenes that have the style of New Vegas’ ending slides.
>> Available from Nexus Mods.

Reverse-engineered GTA 3 and Vice City projects are back online

Cast your minds back to February—a fan project which released reverse-engineered source code for both Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City popped up on GitHub. Unsurprisingly, Take-Two Interactive swooped in with a takedown notice a week later, and the project vanished. Now, four months later, both games appear to be back in action.
As reported by Eurogamer, the modders recently filed a counterclaim against Take-Two's original takedown notice for the projects, dubbed Re3 and ReVC. Turns out, Rockstar's parent company has yet to respond, meaning GitHub has put the projects back online.
