Fallout 3 set for global takeover

Bethesda Softworks has announced a new partnership with Connect Entertainment, arranging for its latest bestseller Fallout 3 to be distributed across a range of emerging markets throughout the world.

Released in North America and Europe towards the end of October, the publisher's first venture with the iconic post-apocalyptic RPG licence will now be heading to 19 new regions around the globe on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

Good. The more people who can get this the better.

MegaMohsi6357d ago

Anyone who hasn't played this owes it to themselves to get this game.

bunbun7776357d ago

to my platinum i can taste it.

All I have left is 50 speeches, 100 locations, Nuka Cola, all Behemoths, and 2 more bobbleheads for the 20. So close.......

poindat6357d ago

I wish I shared your enthusiasm. It's hard to get gunned up to try to get all the trophies/achievements when the game freezes up every gaming session.

Bethesda should patch the the thing before they release it to a wider market. Fallout 3, as of now, needs it. Bad.

chasuk086357d ago

I have the PS3 version and i havent experience one crash...yet

Fowack6357d ago

But that was after a 5 hours session.

bunbun7776357d ago

They seem to have gotten worse after hitting 20, but on the other hand, its like a locking slow down, eventually it "comes out" -- takes 30 seconds up to 3 minutes for me. But no major crashes, which happened to me a few times prior to this last patch.

It has only happened to me in VATS mode, it seems as if the game is loading a new horizon line or new objects in the distance, and i just jump in guns blazing. Other than that, and the occasional getting stuck in an "open" space (lots of holes it seems)- everything has been great. Compared to what I've heard happening on the PC and even my friends 360 / Fallout experience, I think this is not too bad in comparison.

Should be patched again, sooner the better.

Fallout 3, Game of the Year 2008 developed and published by Bethesda Softworks. Exclusive, substancial DLC coming in 2009 for Microsoft platforms.

OSIRUSSS6357d ago

I have this game for the PS3 and it froze once while doing the family mission. But after the latest patch I haven't had any problems. If Bethesda would have just taken 6 months to tighten the code It would be one of the best games ever. As is its still pretty damn good.

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.

cloganart137d ago

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

walken7137d ago

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

Snookies12138d ago (Edited 138d 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.

Michiel1989137d 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_137d 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

jznrpg137d ago

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

Christopher137d ago

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

BlaqMagiq1137d 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??

Phoenix76209d ago

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

gigoran8209d 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

1nsomniac209d 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.

UltimateOwnage209d 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

ZeekQuattro397d 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.
