Bethesda fans - hold onto your hats

If Internet rumours are to be believed, the popular action-RPG studio are readying an announcement of enormous magnitude for this coming E3. How does Elder Scrolls V catch you? The rumour's all a bit higgledy-piggledy - it's true source runs back to Famitsu magazine where they've confirmed that publishers such as Konami, Ubisoft and Bethesda all have surprises..

This Fallout: New Vegas boxart is not drab in the sense that it is boring - it's relatively stylish and eye-catching in fact

It's just drab in so much as it sums up what you're likely find within the game. Dark, rough, empty environments laced with annoyingly animated creatures. We liked Fallout 3 but, c'mon, it had more than its fair share of issues didn't it? One being that it was just boring in..

How would you like some poker chips and playing cards with your copy of Fallout: New Vegas? Sure, ok

What if the playing cards were illustrated with characters and factions from in the game. Sure. How about a hardcover graphic novel written by the game's creative director and published by Dark Horse Comics? Sold! Throw in a "Making Of" DVD and that just about sums up the collector's pack..

Bethesda and Splash Damage's quirky first-person shooter Brink continues to look more stylish each time we see it

This time around Kotaku's got a bunch of new screens. The game's still on track to release this Holiday. It could end up being pretty big this one folks, so stay tuned.

We know we're going to get screamed at for this but, Fallout 3 is not a good looking game

And we're going to assume that Fallout: New Vegas is going to look like ass too. Particularly after seeing this first batch of screenshots from CVG. Will the game rock? Absolutely. Does it look like the most unappealing game ever based on its screenshots? Absolutely.

AGB have a few scans from Fallout: New Vegas in the latest issue of PC Gamer

Unsurprisingly they look rather a lot like Fallout. We wished there was perhaps something more to get excited about here, but Fallout's never been the strongest game visually and the scans aren't much to crow home about. Indeed, Fallout is all about the setting, and we're sure we'll be hearing more about the presumably..

Bethesda's just confirmed to us that Fallout: New Vegas will hit the Playstation 3 this Autumn

There's not much on the actual game itself yet, but it has been confirmed that the Obsidian developed spin off will “take all the action, humor, and post-apocalyptic grime and grit of this legendary series, and raise the stakes.” There's a new trailer after the jump, and magazine blow-outs are promised..

A mysterious post on the GameSpot forums claims to have a host of leaked information about Bethesda's upcoming Fallout: New Vegas

Of course, comment from the publisher is of the "no comment" variety, but that doesn't stop these details looking any more solid. Still the forum "leak" goes on a friend-of-a-friend basis, so take it as you will. According to the details posted..

There's one thing you can ensure if you have Killzone 2's producer working on your game: it's going to look sensational

And Brink looks unreal right now. The gameplay videos dropped after the jump show a hyper-stylised universe with some super-tight shooting. Gameplay-wise, the demo looks fairly standard fare, but that art-style is wonderful. With Brink still about a year off, you should probably..

We're not huge multiplayer gamers

We enjoy it, but we're not the type of people who can make a game's multiplayer mode last a year or two. That's just, meh. Still, there are a lot of gamers out there that don't even touch a multiplayer mode. And those are the type of people Splash Damage want to convert with their innovative FPS Brink."It's our goal from the outset to incidentally teach people..

We've been very jealous today

While reading our surprisingly buoyant journo colleagues Tweets from sunny ol' London, we've been sat here in the gloomy Midlands typing stuff. Still, DJ Hero did come in the post. Score. Over in London though, a real party has kicked off as Fallout 3 won the annual Golden Joysticks "Ultimate Game Of The Year". Over 1.2 million votes were cast in the awards,..

Fallout 3 DLC will finally hit the Playstation 3 on September 24th

That will see the launch of the Broken Steel pack on the PSN. Content will follow thick and fast with The Pitt and Operation Anchorage on October 1st and finally; Mothership Zeta and Point Lookout on October 8th. All of the DLC will support trophies. October 13th will also see the release of a Fallout 3: Game Of The Year edition; it..

If Wet takes its core mechanics and continues to make them interesting over time, the Grindhouse setting will do more than enough to make this game a memorable arcade shooter

The best thing about Wet is that it knows exactly what it is. It's not trying to redefine arcade shooters, but at the same time it's blissfully aware it needs to change things up a little in order to be interesting. What you..

Elder Scrolls games are a bit of a favourite for most people

Bethesda though, aren't too interested in delivering any more. But Bethesda's Todd Howard spoke about his companies future with the franchise, stating there are "no plans" for a future release of the Elder Scrolls franchise. Of course a "no plans" statement does not...

Thank goodness for that

Bethesda said Wet would come in 2009 and it is. September 15th 2009 to be precise for our American readers. The Tarantino inspired hack-and-slash-style-on-rails-with-a-Grindhouse-feel-esque game has earned a fair amount of praise over the past few months. Here's hoping it lives up to the hype.

We sat quietly through the whole of June waiting for Fallout 3's DLC

It never came. So we sat waiting longer. We're now midway through July and despite promises that the DLC is nearly finished, Bethesda have confirmed it'll arrive "by the end of September". The reason for the delay is because Bethesda want to change the order the packs are released in. On XBOX 360, Broken Steel was the..

We sat waiting patiently for the first of the PS3 Fallout 3 DLC today

It never came. We got quite upset about it and trundled away from our PS3 back to the tennis. Alas, Bethesda predicted people must have been waiting and have quelled some fears, claiming Operation Anchorage is nearly ready for PS3 release. Unfortunately a date was not given.

We're going to be open right now and admit that aside from this trailer we don't have a clue what Brink is all about

We're guessing the gunshots mean there will be shooting. We're guessing from the monologue that it's going to be some kind of sci-fi game. Other than that, all we have is a release date, Spring 2010. Absolutely no doubt E3 2009 will tell us more.

Just recently, we've been sitting around mulling over the fact that we'll probably never get to experience the Fallout 3 DLC

The DLC, which was in some kind of exclusivity deal with Microsoft, was rumoured destined to never be released on Playstation 3 - until Bethesda revealed otherwise today. Starting from late June PS3 owners will be given access Operation Anchorage, followed by The Pitt and..
