Fallout 3 - Day 1 Roundup [Updated]

by Dhruin, 2008-07-14 22:09:53

No doubt we'll get plenty of links for Fallout 3 over the following days, so I'm going to collect a bunch of them together.

First, G4 TV has the promised gameplay video demonstration - I haven't had the time to watch it, so no details to add yet.

 Next Bethsoft has kicked up a new promo site -  PrepareForTheFuture.com.  The flash-y site offers an atmospheric signup for updates and links to the teaser and pre-orders at GameStop.

Blue's coverage of the Microsoft E3 conference offers some info on DLC for Fallout 3:

The Microsoft E3 press conference is currently underway, and so far they've rolled out a look at Fallout 3, saying the post-apocalyptic sequel will be followed by "substantial" downloadable content for the game that will be exclusive to Xbox LIVE and Games For Windows. Todd Howard's demo of the game shows off the ability to choose a stealthier or more straightforward approach to combat, as well as a bit on the moral choices you'll be faced with.

...and you can also find coverage at Eurogamer, Engadget and GameSpot (thanks NMA).  Here's a quick sample from GameSpot:

[10:42] The next obstacle is a sentry bot, which he takes out with the help of an EMP grenade. Howard emphasizes that the game reacts with the way the players goes through it: good, bad, or in between. Troops from the Enclave come down on him in a helicopter transport, so he switches to The Fatman and launches a bomb across the map at the soldiers. He wraps up the demo to applause and a smattering of cheers. He also mentions "substantial" downloadable content for Fallout 3 that will be exclusive to Xbox 360 and Games for Windows.

[Update] The Good Life trailer, which contains a 50s-style B&W intro, the previously released teaser and some combat video.
