Giant AT-AT House Built in Fallout 4
A Fallout 4 player has taken base building to a level far, far away from the rest.
Getting in the mood for Star Wars: The Force Awakens' release later this week, YouTuber Ops_Specialist released a video yesterday, which you can watch below, of his AT-AT creation in Bethesda's open-world RPG.
In the video, we see the sheer size of the AT-AT and even get a glimpse of the interior, which features decor such as beds, plants, and some high-tech lighting.
Interested in seeing some more of Ops_Specialist's building in action? Check out his hour-long video where he explores the interior a bit more and adds to his AT-AT creation.

Enter Sony's PlayStation VR hardware, which NASA is currently using as it tries to figure out a better way to control their robots, but this time with human input.
