Bethesda announced today that the follow up to the critically acclaimed Fallout 3 will arrive this fall.
Along with this announcement, they released a teaser trailer that shows Sin City looking much as it does today, perhaps signalling that Las Vegas managed to escape the worst of the holocaust that visited the rest of the world.
It also suggested that the New California Republic will be a major faction in New Vegas, as the lone soldier in the video is seen holding a California state flag.
More information will likely be forthcoming, but for now, the trailer is posted after the break.

ModNation Racers, set for release this Spring, has been called “LittleBigRacer” for its similarity to Media Molecule’s customizable platformer. Shawn Vermette and Graham Russell spent a lot of time with the beta so they could give you a preview of the upcoming title.
Shawn Vermette: I went into ModNation Racers without high expectations. I love kart racers, mainly because of Mario Kart, but the big focus of the game seemed to be on customization, which I’m not a big fan of. I love the idea of customization…I just rarely put the time or effort into customizing things. So consider me impressed when I tell you that I believe ModNation Racers could be the closest anyone has gotten to creating a kart racing game that is as fun and addictive as Mario Kart Wii.

All through the fall, gamers were griping about delays and talking about how Q1 2010 would be better than Q4 2009. Now that we’re here and starting to see the release of some of these games, do you think that’s true? What are you looking forward to in January, February and March? Let us know!
From our family to yours, we’d just like to wish everyone a joyous holiday season and general merriment. Whatever and however you’re celebrating, be sure to have some fun before 2010.
Feel free to stop by and let us know how it goes!
One of Snackbar Games’ traditions every year is to have each staffer pick their top ten games of the year. We’re so all over the map in our tastes that our lists are never similar. Today, we have site veteran Chris Ingersoll. We’d be surprised that he wrote so much about only two systems, but…well, we know the guy.
As usual for my own year-end list, I want to emphasize that this only covers games released this year that I have actually played. This leaves a lot of front runners left off the list simply because I don’t own the system(s) on which they were released, I wasn’t interested in them, I had other financial obligations at the time of its release and it got back-burnered, or any number of other reasons. Additionally, there are a few titles remaining to be released this year that could have stolen a place or two.
Right off the bat, I don’t own an Xbox360, PS3, PSP, DSi, or gaming-capable PC. For the two systems that I do own, here are the ones I didn’t get to for 2009 that probably deserve consideration: READ MORE
