New Fallout title in the pipe

Bethesda announces Fallout: New Vegas for 2010.

And, so far, there's not much more we know!

At a recent event in the UK, Bethesda peeps did say it's coming some time in 2010, it will not be a sequel to Fallout 3, and nor will it be an expansion pack. About all we know apart from that is that it will be developed by the Fallout team at Obsidian (though it was Black Isle back then), and it'll be made using the same engine.

At least that means that, by then, it'll still be looking as good or even better on the hardware of the time.

That's it for news for now, but hopefully E3 will shed a bit more light on the new title.

The Fallout 3 team at Obsidian?

Bethesda Game Studios developed Fallout 3, dudes. Has someone typo'ed?

Sorry for the double post, but it looks like Obsidian is developing it.

So it will be many of the members of the old Fallout team, from Black Isle Studios, not the Fallout 3 team as written, who were the same team that makes the TES games.

Sorry, typing the '3' was habit :) It's the Fallout team from Obsidian. Updating now.

I like the sound of this. Latest engine but the old talent. This could be special.

Hope its better then Fallout 3. Found that one kinda boring and not fun. Really was "Oblivian with guns" IMO.
