Thunderbolt Preview: Fallout 3

Anthony Karge reports:

''Now that E3 has finished and the Los Angeles Convention Center is temporarily a ghost town, the previews of Fallout 3 are all over the place. Bethesda was very keen on letting attendees get quality hands-on time with the Xbox 360 version. Already there are previews glowing about the depth of the world, the incredible setting and the tongue-in-cheek humor. I'm not going to pretend I was able to grasp everything that happened. I didn't just fail to scratch the surface. With only 30 minutes I hardly even touched it.

The demo began inside an underground vault. With the press of a switch, the seal opened and the screen faded to white. This, in addition to the music, suggested something pleasant, like a green field of freshly cut grass. When the world fades back I saw nothing but post-apocalyptic carnage as far as I could see. The environments in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion were undeniably impressive, but the landscapes of lush forests and castle towns have been done many times before. This beautiful decayed landscape has never been done to this scale before.''

Would be nice if they had New Vegas ready as well, especially because of the show.

Hopefully this doesn't have the same performance issues as Oblivion Remastered.

cloganart151d ago

I haven't seen anything on these performance issues? What's been going on?

walken7151d ago

Probably the Unreal Engine issues, I skipped it for that reason.

Snookies12152d ago (Edited 152d ago )

Throw in all the DLC as well, like Oblivion and I'll definitely bite. I recall having one trophy left to unlock on the PS3 version with 100+ hours in my save. When my save file got corrupted, lol. Very sad day.

To be fair though, Bethesda was trash at Playstation ports anyway.

Michiel1989151d ago

all devs sucked at porting to ps3 for the first like 3 years because no one had experience with the cell architecture. Even 1st party took a long while to get proficient with it, the difference between uncharted 1 and 3 is massive for example.

Extermin8or3_151d ago

Oh oh oh I can do this too. GTA 7 will be made at some point in the future. Fallout 5 will enter development in the future too

jznrpg151d ago

Everyone there should know most gamers want New Vegas and Morrowind more than anything.

Christopher151d ago

Which is why we won't get them. Gotta keep floating "support this one and it might happen".

BlaqMagiq1151d ago

Can't wait. Won't have to go back to my PS3 to play this when it comes out.

Fallout 3 remastered on the Nintendo Switch 2 is what we deserve, not the worst Fallout game

Fallout Day's disappointing news that Fallout 4 is coming to Switch 2 is a shame, as this 17-year-old entry is more deserving of a new port.

Why exactly do you think you deserve it??

Phoenix76223d ago

Fallout 4 isn't the worst game in the franchise. It's either Fallout 76 or Fallout BOS that's the worst.

gigoran8223d ago

PC and all other modern consoles never got a remaster of 3, but obviously the switch 2 was the tipping point to make it a reality... ahuh

1nsomniac223d ago

Meh, I thought 3 was garbage. I'm not a great fan of the franchise to be fair. They're like B-Movie films, really shallow and janky. 4 was definitely one of the better ones though.

UltimateOwnage223d ago

So the article makes a snippy entitled statement and acts like that is going to encourage a publisher to give them what they want. Okay.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro411d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.
