Disgusting... first news we hear about FO3 and its going to be in an Xbox 360 magazine? what a way to win over the DAC and NMA cynics

I think it's awesome and great for the game. PC is becoming the last restort, junk box for developers. Just a hell of a lot more cost effective both pre- and post- delivery of the game.

Someone loves their Xbox 360, clearly
I have to disagree entirely with what you said though.
I hope you are able to make a logical distinction between the PC and Console gaming market, and realise the shear hate that the Fallout community will have if this ends up being a total flop.
The game will essentially be dumbed down, because a company like Bethesda will not focus two very different versions for two markets, they will have to sacrifice the freedom they have with PC games in order to produce one that will work flawlessly on BOTH platforms.
It's plain to see, Oblivion was pure eye-candy in the eyes of an Xbox user, and the companies stand-point was "Console gamers do not have the time to grasp a complicated RPG, hence we will have to introduce a ridiculous levelling system".
It should not be left to the modders community to fix the errors of game developers! that is why Oblivion is a 'special case' so to speak.
These kind of compromises only stunt creativity in respect to such a massive RPG like Fallout.
I have my serious doubts, but if they manage to pull this one off, it will probably go down in history as a momentous occasion.
