The eagerly anticipated 'sequel' to 2008's Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas was showcased at Bethesda’s booth at E3 2010. It isn't exactly a sequel per se, as the story has no correlation to Fallout 3's, taking place three years after the events in Fallout 3, and 39 years after those in Fallout 2. Fallout 3 changed a lot about the Fallout universe, and New Vegas will still reflect many of those changes, though Obsidian is bringing us back to the west coast. Can they strike gold in the Mojave desert?
A gray cloud loomed over this year's big summer game showcases: Over 16,000 game developers have lost their jobs since 2023, many of whom were casualties of success at companies that reported huge profits this year. One of the largest cost cutters has been Xbox, which in January cut 1,900 jobs at Activision Blizzard and in May shut down four studios: Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, Alpha Dog Games, and Roundhouse Games. The closure of Tango was taken especially hard, as the studio was still basking in the light of Hi-Fi Rush, a critical and commercial success by all of Microsoft's metrics.
I mean, you should be. Because we now know and understand that even if Avowed is a hit it doesn't mean the studio is safe.
I hope that they're able to buy out their own Studio, like Toys for Bob's did, maybe some of their IPs as well, and go the Larian Studios route instead. We still need a sequel to Alpha Protocol after all. So here's hoping for the best.
Listen to your leaders, rather, good luck!
Of course they're gonna feign confidence. They're about to release a game so they wanna look strong as possible. I know for a fact they're deathly afraid, I would be to and they absolutely should be.
I'm afraid for them right now. MS can't be trusted.
Keep supporting MS people and Xbox, they clearly do not care as you can see with all these closures. You want to hurt Xbox and MS just boycott their next console.
I'm not worried at all. Obsidian are are awesome devs and I'm looking foward to Avowed.

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.
It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did
They included physical disc back then
I would love the classic fallout games on console. Closest I could find was atom rpg, I liked that one a lot
Man, I was seriously doubting this game, but I gotta say.. still doubting it xD. Nah haha, couldn't help myself, it does look good!
the new faction elements seem really cool, i like that they're giving you a lot of freedom to choose which faction to align yourself with.
Bethesda is awesome. Im really looking forward to this and Brink from them
The setting could be really cool if they do it right, Fallout is fallout, would be a great place to explore
Seems good, looks...ok.
