Bethesda Softworks has released three more shots from Fallout 3, scheduled to be released later on in the year.
The shots depict a birthday celebration for the player in Vault 101, a ghoul being shot up by a mini-gun and canine companion Dog Meat, which the player encounters once they've set out into the Washington wastelands.
Dog Meat will fight and defend you if you get into combat. The dog will also find objects littered across the landscape, so you don't have to root through abandoned cars and houses yourself.
Speaking to CVG recently, Pete Hines confirmed that Dog Meat can accompany the player in addition to either one or two other companions ("We're still working that one out", he said).
We wonder if this will finally stop Peter Molyneux talking about features in his upcoming games that aren't coming out for years.
Although the original Fallout did pip Fable 2 to the dog companion concept by about a decade, so it's hardly plagiarism.
Yeah, that birthday party scene makes me hopeful they've kept the grim humour of the first two games (let's ignore Tactics). Must say, I'm looking forward to this way more than GTAIV.
Oh my god, those graphics are awesome. It makes Oblivion look utterly s**t by comparison...
I'm not sure if your being sarcastic or what but the engine is the same used to make oblivion so the graphics are pretty much the same.
Fallout 3 and Oblivion both use the same engine as Morrowind, so by your logic Oblivion doesn't look any better than Morrowind .
They also all use the same engine as Civilization 4, Zoo Tycoon 2, Freedom Force, and Prince of Persia 3D... and MAN don't all those games look similar to one another! /sarcasm
