I'm not going to dignify the other thread with a comment, but there is news! Amazing news; Bethesda have confirmed they will be attending E3 for the first time ever!

This could finally be it. Actually it!

I really enjoyed Dishonored (even if it was a series of mini sandboxes rather than an open world). TBH, I wouldn't be too upset if it were Dishonored 2.

That's not funny. I saw this and was so hoping for real news!

Anyone know where Bethesda got their name from?

I always thought it was an odd one, and then one day I had a customer who was in Bethesda, Wales, but I didn't think they had any Welsh links.

Bethesda, Maryland

This is the biggest piece of real news from Bethesda since, well, Skyrim. They haven't attended any conferences for a long time and they have never been to E3 before. It's gonna have to be big so it doesn't get swamped in all the other releases.

I didn't put this up for clickbait. I am genuinely excited.

There was a 'Pool of Bethesda' mentioned in the Bible.

A reference to Bethesda Sun Centre, the sister pool of Rhyl Sun Centre.

I've never played the Fallout-series and don't really know what the fuss is all about but I gather it's a bit HL3.

So I was a bit meh when I saw this: http://www.webhallen.com/se-sv/spel/xbox_one/18870...

It's a legit site. A joke?

I really enjoyed F3, and even most of the DLC (the UFO one was a bit silly though). The writing was very good with lots of layers to it, especially some of the logs from just after the bombs dropped.

It looks like Fallout 4 will be in Massachusetts - plenty of references to "The Institute" which is expected to be MIT in Boston (sort of) and Quabbin Reservoir which is upstate:

The distance between the two is roughly the same as the real-life distance between downtown DC and Raven Rock, MD.

I loved Mothership Zeta especially the weapons you could take back with you.

They are fantastic!! You really are missing out - get a cheap copy of Fallout 3!

Fixed that for you.

I wasn't passing judgment on the series but rather referring to the fact that I haven't played the games, I'm therefore not a fan and thus I've no idea what's going on. See my Half Life 3 reference. In other words, I've no idea whether or not a legitimate shop listing the game is some kind of a fan joke along the lines of all the 'Half Life 3 confirmed' jokes that are out there. Just wanted to share with actual fans.

Ah, ok. I misunderstood. Sorry about that.

Not even announced until June?!? Tragedy. Hope it will be released July then

Also other exciting stuff from that article.

Over 200 people are now said to be working on the full production of Mass Effect after the completion and launch of Dragon Age: Inquisition.

Reports suggest a late 2016 release date, with a possible remastering project for the Mass Effect trilogy starting in 2015.
