Fallout 3 in October

Bethesda Softworks announces October 28 as the North American release date for Fallout 3 and October 31 as when European stores will be carrying the post-apocalyptic RPG sequel:

August 20, 2008 (Rockville, MD) – Bethesda Softworks®, a ZeniMax Media company, announced today that its highly anticipated title, Fallout® 3, will be available on store shelves and online in North America on October 28, 2008 and in Europe on October 31, 2008. Developed at Bethesda Game Studios – creators of the 2006 Game of the Year, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion® – Fallout 3 is slated for release on the Xbox 360®video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, and Games for Windows.

“We are very excited to let gamers get their hands on Fallout 3, the latest chapter in this beloved and highly acclaimed franchise,” said Vlatko Andonov, president of Bethesda Softworks. “To meet the huge demand for this title by our fans worldwide, we are planning one of the biggest launches of any game released this year.”

Fallout 3 features one of the most realized game worlds ever created. Set more than 200 years following a nuclear war, you can create any kind of character you want and explore the open wastes of Washington, D.C. however you choose. Every minute is a fight for survival as you encounter Super Mutants, Ghouls, Raiders, and other dangers of the Wasteland.

Hailed as one of the most anticipated games for 2008, Fallout 3 has already won numerous awards including Best of Show from the official Game Critics Awards at E3 2008, a selection voted on by an independent group of journalists from 36 leading North American media outlets that cover the videogame industry.

Fallout® 3 has not yet been rated by the ESRB. For more information on Fallout 3, visit http://fallout.bethsoft.com.

    I want gameplay. gameplay, story and above else humour.

    None of those can be shown in any number of screenshots.
Actually, humor is pretty easy to convey. All they have to do is take a screenshot of a humorous dialogue option. Of course, since they only show screenshots of shit blowing up, it's hard to tell.

My post was removed? I only stated that I agree that lack of shadows isn't game breaking and I called Nuclear Watchdog a complete moron... both should be legal on this site.

Must of been some anti semetic remarks to get removed by Blue. That's the only time I have ever seen him do anything that drastic.

The N word never bothered him.... think we are revealing something personal, no?

Hey Nuclear, then why did they show object shadows up to the E3 show of that year, and then sorta mentioned the object shadows were removed when EVERYONE noticed they were removed?

I mean it's not like object shadows would have been nice in the caves/dungeons at all right?

And Oblivion was the best game by Beth? I don't think so. But you go ahead and play with the face mini game.

Sure, but the difference will be in how soon we see mods, and how limited those mods will be.

Please. HUD Mods came out in the first freaking day of Oblivion's release. Bigger mods obviously take time, but Oblivion was absolutely inundated with mods from the get-go.

I'm looking forward to this. Comes out right around the time I should be done with Farcry 2.

    Let's wait until it goes gold before we make our assumptions, k?
It has already been confirmed that, like Oblivion, Fallout 3 will have no environmental shadows, just character shadows.

The game comes out in October. When you make a 360 game, you submit it to Microsoft at least one to two months before ship date. Trust me, if the shadows aren't in the game by now, they won't be there when the game goes gold.

That said, it looks like only certain characters have shadows. There are no environmental shadows whatsoever.

Plenty do not.

The people who buy shitty games are responsible for the fact that publishers keep releasing shitty games.

Nah, they just make it for the console kiddies who have much lower standards and then port it to PC.
