<p>We now have a definitive release date for <em>Fallout 3</em>, and it's a lot earlier than any of us suspected. Take a look at the <a target="_self" href="http://bethsoft.com/news/pressrelease_071204.htm">Press Release</a> from <a target="_self" href="http://www.bethsoft.com">Bethesda</a>.</p><blockquote><p>
</p><p class="MsoNormal"><em>Rockville, MD - April 1, 2006 - Bethesda Softworks&reg; today
announced that the highly-anticipated role-playing game, Fallout&reg; 3: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game, will be available in stores in North
America and Europe during the week of <strong>July 17</strong>. Fallout</em><em>&reg;</em><em> 3 will be available for Xbox 360&trade; video game and entertainment
system from Microsoft and PC in both regular and collector's editions.


"Our most ambitious project ever is nearing completion," said Todd Howard,
executive producer of Fallout&reg; 3. "We're excited to get the game into
everyone's hands and let them experience it for themselves. We hope they enjoy
it. I think it's our best game yet, even better and more exciting than Oblivion"

Fallout&reg; 3 is an epic, open-ended single-player RPG for the next generation
providing gamers with one of the most life-like gaming experiences to date. The
powerful combination of unprecedented graphics and freeform gameplay allows
gamers to unravel the main quest or explore the vast world at their own pace. Fallout&reg; 3 is the third chapter in the award-winning Fallout&reg; series that was originially published by Interplay Entertainment Corp&reg;.</em></p></blockquote><p class="MsoNormal">This is unbeliebable news.

If any aspect of that Xbox 360 version is true, even though it's obviously an april fools joke, I'd cry.

For the last 3 years DAC has always posted FO3 publisher/release dates on April 1st on their web site. I had to prepare myself over a month ago, NOT to get excited when going to DAC homepage. I literally held my breath today---hoping to see FO3 news---and there it was. I knew it was DAC being DAC and yet...I was still excited.

I mean seriously, guys, even NMA had a better joke than you. What does that say about us as a community?

NMA's joke was hilarious because it's not totally unbelievable.

yeah, but you're biased so I think you just made this lame April Fools joke in order to undermine DaC and lead the way for a hostile NMA takeover :che:

I just hoped to see the line "No. It's not an April's Fool joke, it's true." at the end of the article, but no :( .

But at least the joke is better than what Beth's Fallout 3 seems to become.
"Always keep your Vault shiny and clear
because it can even blind the enemy when they attack. Maybe you can let the Vault door rust; it will be more difficult to get in then."

"Koki, community pillar and a role model, dead" would've been more hilarious. Cause you're a nobody, roofles.

Nicolai MSN'd me to cry about how this news post had hurt him, so I think it was well worth it.
