Fallout: New Vegas announced

by Sam Naylor on April 20, 2009 at 8:05 am

Bethesda Softworks announced today that Obsidian Entertainment will be developing a brand new Fallout game in the style of Fallout 3, although it is not a direct sequel. The game is expected to ship in 2010 for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC. Obsidian Entertainment are the development team behind Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II and Neverwinter Nights, and was formed from several members of the team that developed the first two Fallout titles, Black Isle Studios.

“It is not a sequel to Fallout 3. It is simply another game in that universe,” Bethesda’s Pete Hines said, adding: “It’s definitely an RPG. Same sort of experience as what folks got in Fallout 3. It’s not Fallout Tactics, it’s not Brotherhood of Steel. It’s another Fallout game.” Perhaps the die-hard fans of the originals will be more partial to this one. With he success of Fallout 3, I won’t be surprised if this sells well in the mainstream market as well.

Fallout 3 Review

by John Landis on January 4, 2009 at 12:53 am

Unless you’re living under a rock, I’m sure that you’ve heard about Fallout 3 and how awesome it is.  If there is any doubt, or you just want some more to read about the game because your sickeningly addicted to it, then feel free to absorb my words as they project into your eyeballs and are interpreted by your brain goo.

Fallout 3, to put it simply, is one of the greatest games ever made.  Frankly, you shouldn’t even be reading this if you haven’t played the game yet.  Turn off your computer, rub your eyes a little bit, and go out and get the game.  Trust me, you won’t regret it. Read more…

Fall 2008 Lineup: R² Breakdown

by Roly Reyes on October 7, 2008 at 5:46 pm

Fall is fast approaching, and your bank balance will soon be dropping faster than the leaves on the tree outside your window. Naturally, you may not be able to decide for yourself which of the plethora of games to splurge your life’s savings on, and that’s where I come in.

Think of me as your personal assistant — ready to passively (and aggressively) project my thoughts and opinions onto you. Thank me later. Read more…

Fallout Coming to GameTap This Thursday

by Demi Adejuyigbe on July 22, 2008 at 8:58 pm

As demonstrated during Microsoft’s Press Conference at E3, Bethesda is nearing completion on the third iteration in the Fallout series, due out October 7th. Of course, with the changes that have been made to the series in Bethesda’s hands, Interplay is giving gamers a reality check by releasing the first game in the Fallout series on GameTap – for free.

Starting this Thursday, you can head over to GameTap’s website and pick up a free download of Interplay’s critically acclaimed Fallout for Windows. I recently picked this game up along with Fallout 2 for the Mac, and I most definitely do not regret it. Interplay’s Fallout titles are classic RPGs, and I recommend getting your hands dirty with the originals before venturing into Fallout 3- especially since you can now do it for free.
