Since there's not going to be any real news on Fallout 3 for a while, we have to settle for anything that even mentions the game. This time, Todd Howard did the mentioning. He briefly talked about Fallout 3 in a podcast interview with Escape Radio. Here's the transcript of the only important part of the interview, as posted at NMA: Host: Since you mentioned it first I don't feel bad about asking, but... what can you tell us about Fallout 3?
Todd: Uh... it's currently... full steam ahead and... um... so... that
would be something that, yeah, we're definitely not ready to talk about
yet... um... in terms of we're still... trying things out... but it's,
it's going... it's going very well... there's a lot of... good stuff...
in the game right now... well, at least we, we think it's good stuff
right now... we... that may change before we... announce... really
announce the game and show it off, so...
Host: You told... you told GameSpot about two years ago you guys were
in the messing with stuff phase... What... what would you characterize
it now, what phase would you consider the project to be at now?
Todd: Um... messing with different stuff... heh...
Host: (laughter) Awesome.
Todd: Um... yeah, we have very long... what we... what we describe as
preproduction... Y'know, for us it's very, very, very long... At the
end of preproduction for us we have... something you can play... this
is... this is, this is what the game... this is a little (?) part of
the game... and, uh... yeah, for better or worse we spend a while doing
that.
For those who are interested in listening to the podcast, the part about Fallout 3 starts at around 21 minutes. You can listen to it here.
