More Rumored Fallout 3 Graphics, Details
Although not officially announced, both the No Mutants Allowed and Duck And Cover fan-sites for the Fallout series of PC RPGs have much new info on Fallout 3, including some new alleged Fallout 3 concept art, as well as pictures of it on the wall in Black Isle HQ. NMA has a good unofficial FAQ, missing the newest info such as there "..being just one playable race in Fallout 3, humans" , but including many more details from the game codenamed 'Van Buren', as being widely discussed in online forums by lead designer J.E.Sawyer.
