Fallout 3: not at E3 this year

Post by Mr. Teatime »

<strong>[ Game -> Interview ]</strong> - More info on <a href="http://wikipocalypse.duckandcover.cx/in ... title=Pete Hines">Person: Pete Hines</a> | More info on <a href="http://wikipocalypse.duckandcover.cx/in ... le=Fallout 3">Game: Fallout 3</a>

<p><strong>Pete Hines</strong> has done a <a href="http://www.gamingsteve.com/podcasts/Gam ... -02-20.mp3" target="_self">massive audio interview</a> over at grooving hipsters' site <a href="http://www.gamingsteve.com" target="_self">Gaming Steve</a>.
The part of interest to us is near the end of the interview, at 71:30,
where Pete says they won't be showcasing Fallout 3 at E3 this year.</p><p>He
also mentions that they plan to make another Elder Scrolls game within
this current console cycle. So that means... well, within 2 or 3 years.
And one can assume they'll have Fallout 3 done before they start
working on the next Elder Scrolls games seriously, just as they're
doing with Fallout 3 waiting for Oblivion to finish development. This
implies to me that Fallout 3 will be out in 2007.</p><p>Anyway, if you want to read a handy summary of the interview instead of listening for 2 hours, you can read the <a href="http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/showth ... c02&t=9963" target="_self">comments thread over at Evil Avatar</a>.

A smart move. Releasing screenshots this early and the following uproar would be unbearable considering the remainder of the development. I'm sure they intend to withhold releasing screenshots for as long as possible.

I don't want to listen to the whole interview... did he reveal any smut regarding Oblivion?

They're hoping we'll all be dead within by 2007. They may be right.

BTW, wouldn't the current console cycle include the 360? That would mean at least 5 years, rather than 2 or 3.

When he says Bethesda will make other TES game during the console cycle, maybe he means expansions? Dunno.

The answer to your first question is shaddup.

We'll see. I'm not a fanboy but I'm also not going to pass judgement til I know more about the game. I'd like to say I play FO1 and 2 every day, but truth is I haven't loaded them up in years, despite them being great (though I am considering playing PS:T again).

As for this current console cycle, maybe it's 5 years. I don't really pay much attention to them, though I thought the Xbox has only been out for like 3 months or something before MS released the 360.

EDIT: It's worth listening to the audio just for the theme tune. ALL TOGETHER NOW:

I guess this is sort of good news. I don't have any money right now, so I wouldn't have been able to head over to the west coast and sneak into E3 anyways. You guys should really think about donating to DAC so I can go next year :eyebrow: . I'll create a TV show about it, and I'll call it "Highlander: Galactica"

I will be the main character, an immortal, and I will go about beheading Cylons and game devs in my quest for Fallout 3 coverage. There will also be a flash back scene called "Fallout 3: Gecko Strikes Back" I will win multiple Academy Awards.

Yes, and I will create a half-time show during your film which will consist of a Dr. Katz style cartoon in which a psychological tape worm named Henry dishes out advice to his host, Tim while Tim is on the crapper... At the end of season 1 Tim will decide to transfere his tape worm to his new GF Susan so Henry can spy on her... Yeah, I know... It's genious. ';0) i'll see you at the Oscars buddy!

We really should. Maybe have podcasts contributed by different forum members each week. I'd be up for it...it could prove to be really entertaining.

Maybe we should freeze ourselves and leave susan awake so that he can unthaw us when Fallout 3 comes out. It will make it come faster.
