The Internet has been all abuzz this dreary (where I live at least) Monday morning\/afternoon with the surprise announcement of Fallout: New Vegas<\/em>. Bethesda Softworks announced the game at a press event in London today, revealing that the game is not a sequel or spin-off to Fallout 3<\/em> but an entirely new and independent Fallout<\/em> title. <\/p>\n

Of course, for diehard Fallout<\/em> fans the most exciting part of today’s announcement is that Obsidian Entertainment, the team of former Black Isle developers who helped create the first two Fallout<\/em> games, is developing New Vegas<\/em>. I’m sure the many fans who thought Fallout 3<\/em> paled in comparison to its predecessors are jumping for joy right about now.<\/p>\n

Fallout: New Vegas<\/em> is currently slated to release next year for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. Beyond these few early details, Bethesda and Obsidian are keeping mum on the game for now.<\/p>\n
