That was a skill-based RPG system that I was looking for that could simulate real-world things, because most things were fantasy or science fiction, but there was "lockpick" or "climb walls" or "Uzi," you know, "machine guns," that sort of thing. So, I gravitated towards that system and we licensed it, and that was the genesis of Wasteland. Wasteland, to me, is what set the imprint in terms of innovation, such as grey morality and non-linear gameplay.

There was strong speculation online that the countdown would end with the announcement (and in some more hopeful corners, the release) of remasters for either Fallout 3 or Fallout: New Vegas, neither of which transpired yesterday evening. Instead, fans of both the games and show were treated to recreation of one of New Vegas' most iconic locations: the Lucky 38 casino penthouse, home to Robert House, before the bombs dropped.

Lore. Lore never changes. Fallout fans will recognize this playful take on Ron Perlman's iconic voiceover, but it also serves as a bedrock truth for Amazon's smash-hit series. Fallout the show cannot escape Fallout the game, for better or worse. There is a voluminous history it must draw from, a fact that carries a lot of risk thanks to the legions of devoted fans ready to cry foul when deviations occur. It's also a tremendous opportunity.

This episode opens with a sequence of two women running through a snowy forest while being chased. When one of them is shot, we learn just who they are: Steph, the now-eyepatched future Overseer of Vault 33, and a woman we learn to be her mother. Her mother is shot, and she tells Steph to do whatever it takes to make it to America no matter who stands in her way. "They're not humans," she says. "They're Americans."

War never changes, but major TV production plans do. A new report points to Fallout Season 3 starting to shoot as soon as May 1, which is almost two months earlier than previously thought. The Prime TV series will film in Santa Clarita, California, according to ProductionList.com, which added that this location was utilized for Season 2 as well.

Like Fanatical's other build your own bundle promotions, you can pick as many games from the list as you'd like, and the more games you buy, the more you save. To start, you can pick up to four games for $3.33 each. At five or more games, you'll pay $3 per item. Grab 10 or more games, and you'll pay just $2.90 per game.

Walton Goggins has time to play sexy DILFs on Saturday Night Live and the Grinch in Walmart's Black Friday ad, but not sit down and mess around with VATs in one of the games his hit Fallout TV show is based on. Not only has Goggins never played a Fallout game in the past. He doesn't plan to do so in the future either. I don't blame him, either. It's just really funny how emphatic he is about it.

Amazon Luna's December lineup of games has been announced, and there are plenty of early Christmas presents to sink your teeth into. For those unaware, Prime members automatically qualify for standard, the entry-level tier of Amazon's cloud gaming service, and each month the company also hands out a number of codes for PC games that permanently join in your library once redeemed.

Bethesda is now selling a highly-detailed wearable replica of the Pip-Boy 3000 from Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. It was designed using the 3D models of the accessory in the games to make it as accurate as possible, and is available for preorder now for $299.99, with shipping expected to start as early as June 2026. Sadly, it won't arrive in time for the season two premiere of Amazon's Fallout series that starts on December 17th, 2025.

Prime Video isn't involved with this promotion, as it's strictly a partnership with the Stars and Bethesda Game Studios. As seen in the picture above, the Stars players will be wearing Fallout-inspired jerseys during warmups, which will then be auctioned off on the behalf of the Texas Stars Foundation. The Texas Stars Team Store is also selling a few replica jerseys and "a limited run of Fallout-inspired merchandise." Additionally, there will be photo opportunities, cosplayers, and Fallout-themed food and drinks.

The new poster for Fallout Season 2 prominently features New Vegas, hinting at an iconic location for the upcoming episodes. The season will focus on key characters exploring this setting, generating excitement for fans of the franchise.

Fallout: Bakersfield is a standalone game built in a modern version of the classic Doom engine, showcasing a non-commercial total conversion mod created by developer Saur X.

The mod looks to recreate Fallout 1's Ghoul city of Necropolis as a FPS campaign using GZDoom, a modified version of Doom that supports modern features.

I made it a quest to snapshot everything and archive it on CD-ROMs. When I left Interplay in 1995, I had copies of every game we did.
