Fallout 3 Falls In

I honestly can’t remember if we already knew a release date for Fallout 3. I had September in my head, but I think I might have been making presumptions. We definitely know now, anyway: it’s October 28th in America, and October 31st in Europe YOU BASTARDS. If an entire continent’s worth of people manages to pirate the game during those three days, it’s your own damn-fool fault, Bethesda.

Which in either case means that I strongly recommend we all stay off the internet for the first week of November. The Angries will be out in force and spraying Angry-Venom everywhere, I’ve no doubt. Oh, and if you’ve not been by the official Fallout 3 site lately, you won’t know there’s a multi-part Penny Arcade comic there and a whole slew of new interviews with the dev team. And now you do. HTH.

    Or, they just hope to make enough money in the first few days in America to offset whatever massive taxes they’ll pay in the UK to go towards keeping everyone’s teeth clean and kidneys intact.

    Was that suitably frothy Americanism?

    Is anyone else disturbed by the fact that every screenshot posted here has involved some sort of drum-fed SMG? God, what a turn-off.

    Have you seen UK teeth? Taxes have to go somewhere else.

    Fallout 3 will be similar to Oblivion. If you liked Oblivion, you will like Fallout 3. If you didn’t, save you money. I’m pretty sure every single person that reads this will buy the game though…

    I’m a big fan of this site and the RPS team but I think

    The Angries will be out in force and spraying Angry-Venom everywhere, I’ve no doubt.

    was a bit unfair.

    Please just report on Fallout 3. There’s no need to discuss the controversy – if it comes up in the discussion quash it there.

    Why not comment on the “Angries”. They love the recognition after all.

    The “we are the future” pro Fallout 3 guys probably deserve a comment as well. They always turn up to stomp on anybody who can still enjoy the originals and doesn’t always want to play an fps.
