Eurogamer:
Microsoft released its new Xbox One dashboard this week, bringing with it the full public release of its remarkable Xbox 360 backward compatibility feature. An initial 104 titles are available, including Bethesda's Fallout 3, which is also given away free with the Xbox One version of its sequel [Update: Note - this is a pre-order bonus and the code expires 90 days after Fallout 4's launch]. Once the current release mania has died down a little, we'll be taking a deeper look into the Xbox One backward compatibility feature, but we couldn't resist looking at Fallout 3 ahead of time - and first impressions are favourable.
A remaster of Bethesda Game Studios' 2008 action role-playing game, Fallout 3, is planned for release at some point in the future.
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.
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.
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.
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
Everyone there should know most gamers want New Vegas and Morrowind more than anything.
Which is why we won't get them. Gotta keep floating "support this one and it might happen".
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.
Fallout 4 isn't the worst game in the franchise. It's either Fallout 76 or Fallout BOS that's the worst.
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
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.
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.
Fallout 3 game designer Bruce Nesmith explains that the upcoming remaster should revise the game's gunplay to be more modern.
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
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.
MS has some of the best software engineers in the world. The guys incharge of BC on Xbox One should be given a raise. Awesome stuff
Don't know what DF is on about with code redemption. I did mine through the xbox one without a hitch. Strange.
Don't hate me, but I never played Fallout 3. Playing through it before 4. Working amazing on back compat.
Surprised this is over 100 degrees. Positive XB1 news is usually meet with a cold chill.
Its true it runs great on the one. I haven't set aside enough money for fallout 4 yet so I've been playing 3 again on my one and I'm hooked all over again. It froze one time for my friend but overall it runs so much faster. The loading times r triple and fast as they were on 360
