Holy wow, there's actually some news about Obsidian / Bethesda's Fallout: New Vegas. We hadn't seen hide nor hair of the game since its announcement in April of last year and ... well, we still haven't. No, dear Readers, today's news is merely that the game will be distributed in many locales outside of the US by Namco Bandai.
Specifically, the Japan-headquartered giant will be putting New Vegas into the hands of gamers in Australia, Austria, Benelux, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and Rivet City. (We made that last one up.) For its part, Bethesda mostly talked up the partnership, but added that, "Fallout: New Vegas builds upon the immersive gaming experience that made Fallout 3 the 2008 Game of the Year." Yes, please!

Maybe 2K are publishing it in the UK? They publsih all of Bethesda's games, seem smart for them to publish something from a franchise owned by Bethesda.

I know Zelda Wii should be my most anticipated game of 2010, but I can't help but crave Fallout New Vegas with every fiber of my gaming being.

This is gonna be awesome.. I def. can wait for it though.. I want this to be a true sequel, but it will likely be a spin-off with little innovation.. And even so I'll enjoy it. I was playing Fallout 3 over a second time, but then ME2 came along.. I will finish it again tho, and I NEVER play games over again... except MGS3.

Is there a European OXM? The feb issue of OXM is already out, and its issue 107, not 57 like the promo images indicate. It has ME2 on the cover.
Unless the promo image is wrong, and its really the March issue, not February. And it's actually issue 108 instead of 57. Which I don't really imagine is the case.
