  • 2003 was to late to sell a top down game. i would have never played it. but i ended up playing the redone version

  • Come on Fallout 3 is better as a 3rd/1st person game because you actually get to be in the world. Not just staring down at it

  • The problem with fallout 3 is that the game had to make money, so they turned it into a shooter. And it worked. Fallout 3 was a good game, dont get me wrong, but its no fallout. Fallout is defined by its top down view, that way it can have much better graphics, this way they dont have to blur out textures and simplify object forms in 3D. In a top down view they can put a lot more detail and atmosphere. And that element is what made fallout so great for me, the attention to detail and atmosphere.

  • I'm glad that Bethesda made fallout 3 a quality game. Better than having this game get made to satisfy a few thousand nerds.

  • @0neofthem Not sure if retard or troll

  • @christianscott123 He's retarded

  • @TheAPersuasion That's what i'm thinking.

  • @0neofthem Omg, If you really talk about how a game is better, a "quality game" than another than you are a nerd. Fallout 3 was made in 2008, this game was going to be made in 2003, see how the age difference could separate the two. Fallout 3 was also made to satisfy nerds, all video games are.

  • @DerMortos76 "The engine is fine." Sure is. I just love gliding sideways and falling through the Earth.

  • i want it T_T

  • Fallout 2 and Fallout 1 are much more better then f3.In these times games mean people graphics, and 3d effects. But this game was a RPG and had a such great flexible story, rpg events. i prefer 2d game with good story, rpg then a ultra good 3d effect game.

    F1, F2 THE BEST

  • I hope Fallout 4 has a brand new engine and is set in Van Buren.

  • @bibbidibobbidiboosta The engine is fine.

  • Such a shame Bethesda ruined Fallout with there crapy engine and there crapy writing only good thing they did was give New Vegas to Obsidian.

  • This would have been fun.. BlackIsleStudios was a big unfluence..

    Too bad they got laid off..

  • You guys should be thankful Bethesda didn't do to Fallout what EA did to Command & Conquer.

  • @gianlucanders

    You mean rape it into an unrecognizable state? That's exactly what Bethesda did.

  • @finalfatasyfreak49

    >Implying Interplay and Blackisle weren't mainstream companies in the 90's.

    Fallout was famous before Fallout 3. You never knew because you were born in 2000.

  • @Grimmomega >greentexting outside of /v/

    Besides that, I agree with you 100%

    Fallout was a mainstream series. 

  • RIP Fallout 3 VBN :(

  • 1.-New vegas

    2.-Fallout 2

    3.-Fallout

    4.-Fallout 3

  • Inventory system looks a lot better than Beth FO3

  • unfinished fallout tactics?

  • @TheKaiTik unfinished fallout 3.

  • @xGunnerxRecallx im sorry i didnt really type in my sentence right, i kinda meant that it looked like fallout tactics, sorry about that.

  • @TheKaiTik oh ok, no problem.

  • I think instead of this Fallout Online, Beth and Interplay should stop this sueing and merge together to make A new Black Isles Studios and a Black Isles Game Publisher and carry on with Van Buren because i think this would have saved the Original Black Isles Studios.

  • @DraugrGames It's worth noting that a good portion of the people that worked with Black Isle Studios went on to form Obsidian, who developed Fallout: New Vegas.

  • @DraugrGames I don't want shithesda anywhere near a new Black Isle studios. 

  • it should've been isometric

  • For some reason the entity avatars remind me of The Sims; and the default Avatar looks like Bob Newbie :O

  • you know the guy you play as is a convict he/she is calld the prisoner

  • Comment removed

  • :(

  • @halobankai Why? Is it a good thing that Bethesda totally changed the style of the Fallout series and alienated a large chunk of the Fallout fanbase? Let's face it, if you like Fallout 3 but don't like Fallout and Fallout 2, you are not a Fallout fan. You are a Fallout 3 fan.

  • this was 95% finished so someone should just pick this up, change it from fallout (but keep it similer to stop copyright) and just sell it as an indie game xD

  • @xajc27X It was the engine that's 95% Not the game.

  • why the fuck didnt this get made?

  • RIP

  • this looks like shit , glad bathesda made fallout 3

  • @Ezldor

    You're deserving a painful death.

  • to bad interplay is in debt $4million, I would love to see some sort of remake of this game for the PC and consoles

  • Not to say that the original Fallout's aren't good (I love Fallout, Fallout 2, and Tactics) but I'm kinda glad that Fallout 3 was signed over to Bethesda.

  • @finalfatasyfreak49 thats true i didnt know about fallout untill my frend got fallout 3 and now im playing vegas

  • the new fallout games are really good, but compared to the old ones they feel like games for children.

  • @kladdkakaor Really? Idiot there are lots of blood and shit in the new ones they are far from children.

  • @finalfatasyfreak49 you are one of those idiots who think the more a game sells the better quality it is? I guess COD is the best game ever...of course with the marketing and big budget and multiplatform development behind it its gonna sell better in todays mainstream COD generation.. the game was still famous long before Bethesda picked it up.

  • @dageezerboi You gotta admit that fallout 3 made the game much more popular

  • @finalfatasyfreak49 well you wouldn't be saying that if you played any of their games... ;) Black Isle excelled at storytelling, dialogue and characters along with immersive gameplay which is everything Bethesda fail miserably at and is mostly why I find their games so boring. but whatever, to each their own.

  • @finalfatasyfreak49 lol you think Bethesda are a better developer than Black Isle were? gtfo and stop trolling. 

  • @finalfatasyfreak49 not trolling retard, Bethesda dont make good RPGs just the truth. play Baldurs Gate 2 or Planescape Torment and then play the dull lifeless shit they make.

  • @dageezerboi if bethesda make such terrible RPG's how come they've won game of the year several years on several games? I doubt if Black Isle continued to make Van Buren they wouldn't have even sold half the amount of copies Bethesda's Fallout 3 has... Face it, Bethesda is more popular for a reason. I'm not saying Black Isle is a bad company, just nowhere near as good as Bethesda.

  • @AllowLuke Any piece of shit can win GOTY in this gen, COD has GOTY stamped on it. And how many Black Isle games have you played? none? Black Isle closed down in 2003 and yes they were/are a much better developer than Bethesda. maybe not as popular cos they didnt make console games and popular doesnt mean better. Fallout 1 and 2 are better than Fallout 3 and Planescape Torment is something Bethesda could only dream of making.

  • @dageezerboi I'm guessing Black Isle closed down because they made such amazing games and sold tons of copies... right?

  • @AllowLuke amazing games yeah, sold tons no but they sold enough just members moved on to other teams (Troika). they were the better, darker version of Bioware and Bioware back then were damn good (Baldur's Gate 2 rapes any game they have done since, they say it themselves). Seriously play Planescape Torment. there is no game in existance with a better story, dialogue or cast of characters. Looking Glass (Thief, System Shock), Troika (Vampire Bloodlines) also closed, the best PC devs.

  • @dageezerboi Bethesda is way better than black isle Studios (my opinion), but i'll say that if it wasnt for them and interplay Fallout would cease to exist.

  • @hydrotag

    your opinion sucks.

  • @fadu if my opinion sucks, then why does black isle studios not exist anymore and Bethesda still reigns. I win this short debate my friend. You lose.

  • @hydrotag

    Because obnoxious mouth breathers are in the in the majority. They're the

    Michael Bay's of the gaming industrie.

  • @hydrotag with beths lawyers? interplay is gonna kill it soon enough

  • @Vladutz2000 Bethesda can only do one more fallout game then its contract with interplay will be void.

  • @hydrotag Black Isle Studios no longer exists because Interplay had financial problems and laid off the Black Isle staff. Bethesda is doing well today because they keep dumbing down their games to appeal to a wider audience, and by doing so make RPGs for people who don't like RPGs.

  • @cultofdagon "by doing so make RPGs for people who don't like RPGs."

    They may be stripping down a lot of features from game to game, but I think you might be overstating this a bit. I certainly haven't seen Madden and CoD fans flocking to play Skyrim or New Vegas. Regardless of what is taken away, their games are still massive, expansive, and with almost endless quests/etc., to keep players occupied.

    Bethesda is not Lion Head Studios.

  • @finalfatasyfreak49 and Bethesda make incredible games (Fallout 1 and 2) into crap like FO3.

  • Before I a saw the Fallout 3 boxes at gamestop and thought it was a lame game then I watched vids on youtube of FO3 I fell in love I bought it and FO:NV and now im going to do a digital download of FO1 and FO2 Fallout one the greatest series of all times waiting for FO4.....

  • @M16Killa502 you will be pleased you did. Fallout 1 and 2 are much better than FO3 and NV.

  • @dageezerboi yea I bought it on Saturday it's fucking AMAZING!!! Fallout My one true game!!!

  • THIS IS FALLOUT!!!..........

  • I enjoyed Fallout 3 and New Vegas immensely, but they both lacked the depth and the realism of the classics. And what I mean by realism is the sense that the game world is a living entity with a history and a future independent of the player. New Vegas was much better about this than FO3, but they both had a childish naievety in the humor and the presentation that made them feel like toys--worlds that were put there purely for the sake of the player. The classics were more mature.

  • For me bethesda feels like an uninvited guest that wants to feast upon the fallout saga...

  • @greger2045 You're not alone in this, Bethesda is on a full march to destroy Fallout's legacy

  • @brujahelder this was from 2003

  • @greger2045 stfu

  • @legiaoday gtfo

  • @greger2045 new vegas was alright but the first 3 were great classics

  • Don't get me wrong, I love Bethesda's take on Fallout 3 and New Vegas, but it would be kinda of cool to see a future Fallout game more in the style of the classic Fallouts 1 and 2. I did like New Vegas in particular due to the large nods to the past Fallouts

  • Comment removed

  • the "original" fallout 3. However the current known Fallout 3 is way better, but this was an interesting read in the fallout wiki.

  • shut up this type of game is from the 90s bethesda made the francise next gen

  • Fallout New Vegas is a good Fallout, but not nearly as good as Fallout 2 also VB looked awesome.

  • OMG, that's amazing! Imagine if this came true TODAY! The graphics would be amazing there could be physics and rag dolls and everything would be so detailed and fun, but at the same time it would be the challenging game that fallout 1 and 2 were.

  • love music, love video. in memory...

  • FEAR NOT CHILDRENS! we is workings on restoring this to what it would have been! just please be patent and all will be good! =)

    -Tristan

  • what is that music??? i want this music

  • @2811ily "Dream a Little Dream of Me" performed by The Beautiful South

  • Just imagine if this game was finished. I would die a happy man if one day, a group of developers came back and finished this game so us Fallout fanatics could finally experience Fallout 3 as it was meant to be.

  • Whenever I download the file, I can't run it. It's set as an application, sorta like a rom.

  • thank GOD that bethesda made fallout 3.

  • @marzwoody But sadly it`s FPS and not at all like this. With music stolen from first games and no feel of atmosphere.

  • @deadfishy666 Atmosphere huh.... Yeah I will take my goal of purifying water for the wasteland.... And stopping three warring factions from destroying the last major functional power plant in the wasteland... over idk stopping some random Mad scientist who some how managed to obtain a super virus and a satellite that fires nukes.... Lmfao video game developer's just don't lay off everyone for no reason... The Lion king game would have out sold this shit... Bethesda Reinvented and saved it....

  • @Promegzingxo i have to agree and disagree. This would have made a great game and with people who loved the 1st 2 games (which was a lot) would have loved this and would have got a lot more new people playing fallout too. Saying that though if they did make it the fallout 3 now whould have not been made and i have to say is a better game then van Buren would have been and i agree with fallout 3 having a whole lot of atmosphere. Also if this was made New vagas wouldnt have been made either

  • @ellnic Exactly, I mean I loved playing Fallout 1-2 but the fact is Fallout is a single player game. People play a single player game for 2 reason's... Reason 1: they can do what ever they want. Reason 2: The story, Frankly I just don't see how this story even remotely fits into the fallout universe... I mean in my eye's nothing about Van Buren's fallout 3 is even relative to anything. It's pretty bad when you literally make fun of your old game in a DLC for the new one (Old World Blue's)

  • @Promegzingxo What are you talking about? The story of Van Buren is about the war between the Brotherhood of Steel and the NCR and a second nuclear holocaust . Seems pretty related to me. If anything, Fallout 3 is the less related game, regarding storyline, of the seven Fallouts.

  • @Promegzingxo also fallout 3 did bring alot more new people playing then this would have

  • @deadfishy666 A big Lol would suffice

  • @marzwoody This.

  • I love FO3 and New Vegas... but damn I need to play FO1 and FO2....

  • yes please make it once more like this!!!

  • is it just me or can you never click the bottom buttonss because of the fucked up cursor.

  • Goodnight, sweet prince....

  • ahh the good old days when the storyline was great

  • Someone should remake all the classic fallouts and this game.

    *sigh* that'll never happen though because of all the license bullshit. Why can't bethesda just let obsidian create fallout online?

  • @newyoikmabsta Probably because Fallout: Online is owned by Interplay and not by Bethesda. A lawsuit between the two companies has slowed that game down to a crawl, though.

  • @MercyVirus They could make their own version. Same Online but not Called fallout online maybe Fallout Network or Fallout universe idk

  • 1:10 All she has to say is "ow"

  • Why can't everyone get on.

    Black Isle = Fucking Awesome.

    Bethesda = Fucking Awesome.

    Obsidian = Fucking Awesome.

    All fallout fans should stick together and just appreciate one of the greatest gaming series of all time

  • @Khanisghen l don't get it why people say bethesda is better than obsidian niggers

  • @MrThemistaken i don't get it why people say obsidian is better than bethesda tbh, but thats just MY opinion... all i'm saying is respect everybodys opinion, neither bethesda or obsidian or black isle are better, it's all just down to opinion. I love all 3 because between them they have given/created/lived on the greatest gaming series ever and i don't understand all the judgemental debating and arguing that goes on between fallout fans...

  • @Khanisghen ur right except for obsidian

  • I would of liked this game to of been released but I still think Bethesda > Black Isle

  • Comment removed

  • Should have been Fallout 3. The current Fallout 3 should have been Fallout 4 and New Vegas would still just be New Vegas.

  • @KrazyKommieKiller I'd would say Fallout New Vegas could be FO3 and FO3 be FO4 because there's a lot of references in FNV that allude to FO2.

  • Btw. Could someone tell me WHY they canceled this game? It's said that it was almost done, so why did they just leave it?

  • @UltimegaSeven Black Isle was broke. Bethesda wanted the license to fallout so it was sold to them.

  • @yasseeninator

    Uber sad face. :(

  • I liked Fallout 3 :c

  • I'm a big fan of fallout 1&2. this is just my opinion, if you like fallout 3 and nv, i'm ok with that, but to all of you who think that 1&2 sucks, without them you wouldn't have fallout 3 and nv. so you should be thankful that they were made, even if you dont like them.

  • @lordrashif

    I never played FO 1 and 2, and i don't hate the games. But just watching this vid made me appreciate it's glory days and made me legit shed tears. I love FO3, but if this was to be the next FO game, I would play it like a hardcore fan.

  • This game does look like it would've been epic, as I loved both fallout and fallout 2. But I prefer the style of fallout 3 that came out. It's not that I don't like games like this, I just prefer the style of F3 and New vegas.

  • I'd Prefer this to the Fallout 3 that came out.

  • I found out that 93% of the game was finished I want the damn game!

  • I have to say this game looks fun, see, if you could combine the fallout 3 looks, first person view and fallout 1 & 2 stories, you would have a great game, i personally think that the f3 story was a little limited, with not enough choices, and no real control over the outcomes, and i again personally think, that the view and im not trying to act like they mean everything cuz they dont, but the graphics of fallout 3 were better, also the creativity of f1 and 2 would be great too, please make that

  • @patar10050 They did. Its called New Vegas.

  • @GBeansauce Yea but i dont know i thought the story in new vegas was kinda meh

  • @patar10050 Yeah, closest thing we'll get to proper Fallout writing these days im afraid. The Old World Blues DLC for New Vegas though is one of the best things ive played in years, amazing writing.

  • @patar10050 i agree with gbeansauce. old world was great. honest hearts was too, fallout new vegas felt like the real fallout 3. it was a great game, sure the story BACKGROUND wasnt there, thats true. but the point of that was to let the player decide and come up with what his past was. so you choose the past (in your head). and i thought that new vegas was on par with the first 2 games. nv is a great game that i played (and still actually play) for SO many hours. fo:nv is a very good sequel.

  • @mariof00tball i agree, i loved new vegas im still playing it, but youre right about the story though, i think ill get old world blues now!

  • @patar10050 Old World Blues is awesome, personally I can't wait for Lonesome Road and finish the Courrier vs Courrier story.

  • @Radwar99 me too

  • @mariof00tball Fallout new vegas is a great sequel. But I'd take fallout 3 over NV anyday.

  • @evilspaceinvader For me it's the other way around.

  • Know somebody, which version the "Dream a Little Dream of Me" is it?

  • @Artemus69 It's by Beautiful South

  • First game i ever played was Fallout 1.......ohhhh the memories!

    This video almost braught a tear to my eye......RIP Black Isle

  • Also to the previous comment, there would be no New Vegas if Van Buren got cancelled since New Vegas borrows story elements of the original Van Buren story such as the burning man.

  • The only thing I like about the Bethesda Fallout is the first person view. I prefer Fallout 1 & 2 over 3. The Black Isle games were more enjoyable had a better story but I don't consider the Fallout series dead. New Vegas is good and Fallout 3 is okay. Fallout 3 had its good points but the story is what kept bringing it down.

  • I have heard you can download van burens tech demo somewhere. has anyone tested is it playable? fallout 2 > fallout 3

  • To all the kids that didn't had a chance to play Fallout & Fallout 2: "I'm sorry....." :-( It had unique gameplay and top graphics in that time, and original storyline, creatures, weapons that Bethesda can only buy and copy.... I bet that if this Van buren, or whatever, was finished it would have brought us many NEW things, that they CREATED..... Fallout 3 is just an Oblivion with some old Fallout motives... I just don't know why somebody didn't make NEW game that is actually a true Fallout3

  • I loved the actual Fallout 3 game, but looking back at this I can just see that this would have been so much better.

  • Damn, I started with 3 and went back to the first two games. Such a waste... I wish some indie company would make a free release to avoid copyright issues.

  • Being a HUGE fan of Fallout 3 and New Vegas I am SO glad they went the way they did.

  • @Alastarr1 You probably never played Fallout, or Fallout 2...? You were born after......?

  • @Pavke101 Actually I did, I also played Fallout Brotherhood of Steel and Tactics. And yah, I think I was born after too, but that doesn't matter considering of course I played them. Honestly, playing all the Fallouts, I still much prefer the newer ones, and now that Bethesda has re-created their engine for Skyrim, I am totally psyched to see what they do with Fallout 4 with this new engine, should be outstanding.

  • @Alastarr1 Son't get me wrong, I like Oblivion, but it's another game, and I'm waiting for Skyrim.... I think it matters when you played first two parts, because when I played them graphics did not matter as much, and for that time graphics was top... Today you expect incredible graphics, even at the cost of gameplay...

  • @Pavke101 Yah, graphics at neat, but I was talking about the engine. I mean, you know how in Oblivion and Fallout they move around all clanky, and not so static against the world? Seeming to like...glide on surfaces and stuff when they walk? Plus the akwardness of fighting melee and using third person are completely re-formated to be far more crisp, the LIVING environment, where everything feels alive like real life. Something that Bethesda games have sort of lacked. It would be extraordinary.

  • Damn, I'm glad Bethesda bought the series and actually made it good. This looks like shit.

  • @xRulerxLS If you've never played the first 2 games in the series you can't really talk. Fallout 1 and 2 (can't say for tactics since I haven't gotten around to playing them) were wonderful games in their own rights that helped provide the mythos for Fallout 3. Completely disregarding that because Bethesda was the first to make a full 3D fallout is unfair. Also keep in mind this tech demo is from 2003, not a game from late 2008. Graphically there've been a lot of advances in that time period.

  • @xRulerxLS I agree

  • Comment removed

  • @xRulerxLS Yeah, because Bethesda's animations and textures look fantastic. You understand this was being DEVELOPED, not even made, almost ten years ago right? Probably not, seeing as you're most likely 13. Go play your shitty fps, I'll play RPGs

  • ive been playing the tech demo for awhile and it was pretty damn good

  • i wish some programmers would get together and finish it. so close yet so far...

  • the thought of the best fallout game ever being so close to completion and being lost makes me cry. i want to finish this for them and save their hard work. and im 15.

  • I am 11 years old , and a fan of Fallout, so SUCK IT FCC

  • I don't know who sounds like the bigger prick, Contracommando or iusethelancer1.

  • As much as i love the first person Fallout 3 and New Vegas, you just cant beat the old turn based 3rd person...

  • FALLOUT R.I.P damn shame

  • @whitel0tus ok let me run this little scenario by you if they didnt cancel van buren they wouldnt have made fallout 3 and then fallout new vegas and after vegas is done with all its dlc annd stuff itss rumored in 2012 there finnaly gonna make a fallout online withtons of citys and stuff so if van buren wasnt cancelled this probally wouldnt have happened im not saying i didnt want van buren im just saying im accepting vn buren isnt coming back.

  • @4megatiger rlly online fallout?? HOLY FUCKING SHIT!

  • @EpicxCubes You can already sign up for the beta

  • @whitel0tus no

  • @whitel0tus well i think that the origanal fallouts were beyond perfection but, lets be honest , the style of gameplay had alot of changing to do , but the atmosphere of the new fallouts could have been better if interplay was the head of their creative developtment.

  • I shed a MANLY tear at the thought of what could have been Fallout 3.

    Hopefully the people at Obsidian (who were once part of Black Isle) will remember the hard work they put into this.

  • @SkyNetGoneWild

    i know, its so awesome.

    i would like to grow old together with it...

    in a MANLY way.

  • @SkyNetGoneWild yes its called fallout new vegas. if it had the load times of fallout 3 (and a better radio) then it would be WAAAAY better than fallout 3 (and before people start crying, i do love fallout 3. trust me its a great game but ive logged more hours into fallout new vegas)

  • @SkyNetGoneWild What's wrong with this Fallout 3?

  • @chrisredfiud

    Nothing is wrong with Fallout 3, but the fanboy hate is something you can find on any corner of the internet. Never mind that Bethesda saved the franchise and that Fallout 3 and New Vegas are actually incredible, amazing games. But, fanboyism, crowd mentality and nostalgia are powerful motivator.

    As a fan of Fallout old and new though, I'd say Fallout 3 is my favorite of the series.

  • @SPYDER04162 EXACTLY what I wanted to hear.

    Thank you.

  • @SPYDER04162 well you gota admit the gun play in fallout is a little clunky. (fallout 3 is best)

  • @SkyNetGoneWild You must have missed that 500 ton "game of the year" Bethesda put out a while back.

  • Has the graphics of Brotherhood of Steel but has the gameplay of fallout 1 and 2? Hmmmmm ill have to try this out.

  • @ContraCommando Good job trolling these people, A+

  • This looks like fallout tactics.not a good thing for me...
