Fallout 3: Ultra-violence, Comedy

A new video feature with the Bethesda guys shows off a range of the weapons available to the player in the jolly-but-grim future of Fallout 3. The bolt action rifle looks like my kind of shooter, and the rail spike launcher looks... completely ludicrous? Can ludicrous be a kind of superlative? I think so.

I'm getting kind of anxious to play this, in the way I do when games are still an unknown quantity to me. Having not had any hands-on opportunity with it, well, I really want to know.
