Fallout 3 - Previews @ GameArena, PSM3

by Dhruin, 2008-07-07 22:54:48

The official Fallout 3 site is pointing out a new preview at GameArena, based on Pete Hines Australian press tour:

The whole game is running on an upgraded version of the Oblivion engine – and the upgrades are definitely noticeable. The nuclear weapons in the game really showcase how pretty the game can look and how well it can run – a dozen nuclear weapons being fired didn’t impact the framerate at all. To make the Wasteland malleable they’re using Parallax Occlusion Mapping, giving the illusion of deformable terrain – and it’s definitely convincing.

Meanwhile, PSM3 magazine has the first no-holds hands-on preview after getting a few hours alone to play unfettered.  NMA has a summary of the key points, for those interested.
