12. Mel Gibson Makes A Few Cameos
This is Mel Gibson - well, it almost is. Mel is a random encounter in Fallout 3 who tries to mug you for all your belongings, but he's a bit inept, stutters a lot and is generally a bit scared of you. If you've got the Perception skill, you'll also notice his sawed-off shotgun is unloaded. Poor Mel. The character is a homage to Gibson who played Mad Max in the film franchise. Eagle-eyed readers may remember that in the second film, Gibson threatens someone with... an unarmed sawed-off. Another Mel made an appearance in Fallout 2, where he appeared in full leather armour and attacked you if you harmed Dogmeat in the Cafe of Broken Dreams. This version is more forceful and packs a punch, but he's easily disposed of.
