Last night Bethesda Softworks dropped three fresh screens for the upcoming, and highly anticipated, first-person roleplaying title Fallout 3. From the looks of the latest screens it certainly seems that Bethesda has nailed the world that wraps the storyline, much like the world did in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.The first screen crashes a birthday party being held within a diner, complete with decorations and cone birthday lids! The second is more in line with what we've seen in the past, a monster engulfed in flames being taken to task with a mini-gun. The last screen shows the main character, who is fully customizable in looks and in specs, trying to coax a dog to him with food (we know this because of the image's original filename). We're getting excited for this one folks!

Is your character named Don Johnson? Because this looks a lot like A Boy and his Dog.

sorry to be so harsh xav, but grammar and spelling are usually pretty standard

*opens mouth slightly* Ah.. no nevermind I'll refrain from commenting this time, besides this particular blog poster is pretty good about checking the comments so I'm sure he got the message. In any case one would hope he'd pay more attention to said article and a little less on the responses (though we commenters love the feedback from the writers). Also I’m aware you gents have a quota for blog posts per month, you want to be the first to get the news out and probably need to rush even more to get it in said “news spooler” so it can be published quicker but honestly does it take /that/ much time to copy and paste it into Word, Word Perfect (God forbid), or even as a Gmail composed message for spelling errors? A cursory glance would also help for simple errors as well. I know when I don’t read my posts they often read terribly and barely get the point across. Problem is I rarely proof read as well, and I ramble (SEE: Above).

Hey I appreciate that someone points out an error. I think most readers would agree it isn't something common in my posts, but it does happen.
I do edit my posts and this one slipped through the cracks. No need to question the integrity of the site because I forgot to hit spell check.
As for "Cone birthday lids" I mean birthday hats... that isn't an error. It was meant as a joke.
Thanks for the feedback, I'd only prefer it be more constructive in the future.

Yes they are indeed impressive but a question arises. Does Bethesda always release their screenshots in sets of three or were the last two related screenshot blogs just coincidental? A few more like this and it will become a conspiracy and we may have to start questioning them, then perhaps it will become fact.
In any case.. WOOOO FALLOUT 3 *expletives deleted* YEAH!!!
Also I'm happy to see that the character models are turning out so nicely. The previous Elder Scrolls games were pretty horrendous in this regard.
The jumping animation better not suck damnit and when my character strafes, his legs better move accordingly and not always in one direction.
