It's Official: Fallout 3 is Getting a Prequel

Bethesda has confirmed that the beloved Fallout 3 is getting a prequel, and it will be available for fans to check out next year. Fallout 3 was Bethesda's first crack at the Fallout franchise, and it's safe to say that the company exceeded expectations. While some hardcore purists bristled at Fallout 3 abandoning the isometric view of its predecessors in favor of an Elder Scrolls-style adventure, the change greatly expanded the franchise's horizons and helped bring in millions of new fans.
