PIPBoy hopes: Fallout 3 coming to Xbox 360? |
Ó
Could this be it? Could the prayers of a million RPG-lovers finally be answered? Should we start charging up our PIPBoy 2000 again? Is the next installment of Fallout finally on its way? The answer, according to Bethesda, is a big, resounding, YES.Now, before you pop that champagne, there's still a couple of things we need to clear up about Fallout 3, which would be the next installment to the classic Fallout series. For one, we do know that the game will definitely be released for the PC, but what we don't know is whether it will also be gracing any of the next-gen consoles.
However, signs seem to be pointing in the Xbox 360's direction. For one thing, the game will be using the same game engine as Oblivion, which is Gamebryo. On top of that, the game promises to be even larger and even more open-ended than its predecessors, so the amount of disc space needed for all of that would also be larger than usual, though this could perhaps be taken care of within the coming year or so. Though no release date of this much-awaited installment has yet been pegged, Howard notes that they are still in the pre-production phase, but that they "should be ready soon to show it off, but we'll see."
Now the next question would be: will the new, Bethesda version of Fallout be able to match the expectations which Interplay has previously built up?
As for the fabled Fallout MMORPG... well... we're not counting on that one yet.

"On top of that, the game promises to be even larger and even more open-ended than its predecessors, so the amount of disc space needed for all of that could possibly be taken care of by the HD DVD." Microsoft has stated numerous times that no games will use the HD-DVD drive. Why are people still thinking this??? The HD-DVD drive is only for movies!
The OXM I got that has an article on Shivering Isles has a little side box for Fallout 3, and in it it says, "We'll have more on Fallout 3 in a forthcoming issue of OXM". They don't print articles for PC-only games, sooooo...
If this game is big enouth(sales wise) or lets say GEARS OF WAR Two will only be HD_DVD then people will buy the HD_DVD simple and M$ know that to,so I would expect this will happen.
Tery you are proberly right,I remember when the Amiga 500 computer needed the 1 meg upgrade so commodore waited for a huge release title at the time to be ready it was either Dungeon Master or Doom im not sure which one it was but when they released the game it was for 1 meg users only and that was that 1 meg became standard as it sold so well.
