Well, might as well put FO4 on the 'never gonna happen shelf', just next to Half Life 3, and another Master & Commander movie.
I wouldn't go that far. Fallout is far too profitable a franchise for them not to continue it. It could, however, be 2015 before it arrives.DKS said:
Cheers. Just downloading FO3 now.Does anyone have it running ok on Windows 8?
call of duty etc are usually all just re-hashed games, scripted missions telling you where to go and when the enemies come at you,
fallout is a massive game with a huge open map with loads of explorable building etc. the amount of work required to make just the map would be huge, then add in the characters, amount of enemies, hundreds of missions and side quests, and it will have to look good on the next gen console, so i would predict its still a long way off, i would be looking late 2015 before we were close to a game.

Sad to hear it's a hoax as I really want a Fo4. 
I think it's going to happen, as Bethesda traditionally alternate between Fallout and Elder Scrolls, and the Skyrim engine would be ideal for a Fallout game. Quite when, though, is another matter.
Like others, I thought Fo:NV was inferior to Fo3. With the latter, you got a sense of humanity holding on to existence by its fingernails, whereas in New Vegas it seemed that things were pretty ok. It didn't really feel that post-apocalyptic.
One of the things I really love is the whole retro-futurism vibe, with all the Art Deco and dieselpunk elements. That's probably why I loved the Bioshock games so much too.
Currently playing Metro: Last Light, and it is *very* on-rails. I'm starting to lose engagement on that now though and beginning to wonder if I'm going to stick with it.

I really need to get a hold of FO3 after reading comments on here.
Loved new vegas such a cool atmosphere.
I thought FO3 was much better than New Vegas, however I did enjoy both Loved new vegas such a cool atmosphere.
slight OT, has anyone installed the Oblivion total conversion Nehrim? - http://www.nehrim.de/startEV.html
Just as an aside, fallouts 1 and 2 are free on GOG.com for the next day or so.
Completely different to the newer games, turn based with an isometric view, but very good storylines and the world reacts to your actions much more than the newer ones, and in more subtle ways.
fallout tactics is also free today which is a jagged alliance style tactical combat game in the fallout world.
should run on the most ancient and outdated PCs with no trouble since they are very old games (or on your works laptop

I saw this yesterday. After survivor2299.com I'm reluctant to believe it. Think I'll wait for a Bethesda announcement before getting my hopes up.

The only thing that concerns me is how many times they can tell essentially the same story. I mean, I want another Fallout as much as the next person here, but I do wonder where they will go plot-wise.
Just another city will do me. More weapons to create, more random quests to undertake. Basically, more of the same but on a PS4 will make me very happy.Gassing Station | Video Games | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
