Yahoo! writes a short tidbit about Fallout 3 in their Week in video-game news.<blockquote>Bethesda acquired the rights to the long-dormant "Fallout" series while it was still working on "Oblivion." Part of what drew Howard to the original games (published by Interplay) was their "overall charm," with the bleak environment balanced by "retro '50s optimism, the idea that in a nuclear disaster you could just get under your desk."
Building on the lessons learned from the "Elder Scrolls" games, Howard and his team have taken that mix of sunniness and despair and translated it into a detailed, 3D universe. Some of the places still standing, he said, are "sun-baked suburban clichés, but you never know: Is there something bad or is there food?" And "Fallout" fanatics will be delighted to hear that Dogmeat, the loyal pooch from the earlier games, is back.</blockquote>Link: 'Fallout 3' returns on Yahoo!
