1UP: Fallout 3 Preview

1UP writes: "With four hours to kill in the wreckage of Fallout 3's postapocalyptic America, I've decided to record my journey in liveblog form. Only not really live, obviously, due to an embargo. With coffee in hand and pastry in belly, I'm off to kill dudes, tweak stats, and find stuff, for your vicarious pleasure.

9:06am: I was hoping to experience the now-infamous first-person birth that kicks off Fallout 3's character building and training intro, but I've been fast-forwarded to the moment before the opening of the vault to save time for further exploration. It's probably for the best.

9:08am: It's been said before, but the way you're introduced to the world of Fallout is extremely cool -- a blinding light that slowly fades, revealing a rocky vista of rubble and grass. Expired buildings loom in the distance. Fittingly, a sign posted on the cliff just below reads: 'Scenic View.'"

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.

cloganart48d ago

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

walken748d ago

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

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.

Michiel198948d 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_49d 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

jznrpg49d ago

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

Christopher48d ago

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

BlaqMagiq149d 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??

Phoenix76121d ago

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

gigoran8120d 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

1nsomniac120d 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.

UltimateOwnage120d 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

ZeekQuattro308d 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.
