Lot of things have been said until now. On one side we have the old-school gamers that crave for real Fallout and not a remake of Oblivion and, on the other side, we have the (other) gamers, not familiar to the Fallout universe, that have nothing against Bethesda's new project. Writing a review you always have to be impartial and, that said, I will pick the middle path, somewhere between the angry mob waiting to slay Bethesda at the first sight of an Oblivion with guns and those that wait for a shinny new Post-Apocalyptic RPG.
When they started work on F3, Bethesda wanted to make sure they wouldn't make the tabloids in a mass murder case so, in an old fashion tradition, they got their hands on all the things that were labeled as Fallout. These included original plans, documentation, art-works and probably even made a synapse scan of those involved in the first Fallout.
The action will take place 30 years later from the first games and, kinda sad for us, it wont link to the first story lines. There will be no direct connection to The Vault Dwellers and we wont see the famous Vault 13 either. Not all is lost considering the fact that we will still have the Brotherhood of Steel and some minor references to other parties involved in the first two games.
