Awesome! I have nearly 300hrs logged on this game... Cannot wait!

Let's hope they don't trim all the fat off to make it fit on consoles... good as fallout is, cant help thinking its watered down slightly to afford the low end console specs. That said they will likely promote a new engine for this... the current engine is on its last legs and needs a huge overhaul. God I hope they add some basic co-op play this time around too.... would be nice to have 3 mates tag along for an adventure.
