    Fallout 3

    Game » consists of 45 releases. Released Oct 28, 2008

    In Bethesda's first-person revival of the classic post-apocalyptic RPG series, the player is forced to leave Vault 101 and venture out into the irradiated wasteland of Washington D.C. to find his or her father.

    Does anyone think that the original fallout will be put on XBLA?

    I missed the boat on alot of great early 90's PC games like The fallout series, planecape: torment, system shock, and was wondering if anyone has heard of a rerelase of the classic?

    Doubtful.

    You can get 1+2 and Fallout: Tactics on one DVD on Amazon though.

    I would highly doubt it...and I don't think it would be that great of a fit...just from what I've heard about the game.

    They'd have to completely redo the interface from the ground up.  Maybe they would after 3 if it's successful.

    I don't think the point and click interface would really work on consoles... I don't think many xbox players would like a top-down, turn-based RPG  anyway.

    That wasnt really necessary, because I completely agree. The game would feel completely awkward on the 360 controller, and would be heavily criticized for it's graphics. It isnt going to happen.

    I think they would.  They already play JRPG's and stuff like Civ Rev.  I just doubt that anyone's willing to invest the manpower to make a controller interface out of a 15 year old PC game.  Perhaps if Fallout 3 sold gangbusters, they'd think it was worth it.

    Nah its had its day, the turn based style combat/movement would not go over well today, personally I wouldnt be able to sit through it in its current state.

    I've been playing it on my PC recently, as I've never played it before, and I love it. But then again I'm kind of a unique gamer. I don't think it would work all that well on the 360 though.

    a lot of people thought, Command and Conquer could never go to console, but they did it and it worked really well from what I've heard.

    He's got a point. A lot of kids these days probably wouldn't be able to get into those games. Heck even I couldn't when I tried recently and I enjoy most 8bit era games.

    Although fallouts a little bigger in scope than bionic commando

    This would take alot of work but it can be done.  Who owns the rights to the first 2 games now?

    Was just about to say the exact same thing, register for early access and buy it next week for a few bucks and play it the way it was meant to be played!

    Yeah, the Fallout IP was sold to Bethesda Softworks, Interplay is a technically a Licensee of the Fallout IP for the Fallout MMO.
    Fallout 1, Fallout 2, Fallout 3 and future Fallout games and extensions are all owned by Bethesda, how much was the Fallout IP? Just under 6 Million dollars, hell of a bargain really on Bethesda's part.
