Fallout 3 IS happning

Didn't you know Scoobs, that 'injecting' *placebo* rather than morphine does somehow suddenly make it all different?

It is the difference between inferring drug use and outright including drug use.

It may sound crazy but the OFLC has to work within its guidelines which is set by the government. Blame them.

It's refreshing to hear that they are taking a sensible approach to DRM with Fallout 3 with it just having a basic CD check instead of some of the horrible and misguided schemes we have seen in recent games. I'll definitely be picking this one up when I've finished The Witcher.

I just discovered there is a demo:

Bit slow there old mate!

Van Buren was the "proper" Fallout 3 if you speak with the die-hard fans of the series. This is true old skool isometric play in the true Fallout Style. I for one am particularly glad they've gone away from this style, as for me, it's just too dated and superceded. However, for those old skool fans, take a look and play with this. It's a "tech demo" rather than a "demo" but it is still worth a little play time

Yay, It's gone gold
Sadly, the Xbox 360 review version has been pirated already
