New Fallout 3 screens leak onto the 'net

Can Fallout 3 be as jaw-droppingly a good an achievement as Oblivion? Actually, stuff that, will it be even better than Bethesda's fantasy RPG? Well, that's what we're obviously hoping.

Fallout 3's still a fair few months off, but in the meantime new screenshots that have leaked onto the internet have got lots of folks very excited.See for yourself- in particular the last one of the batch that shows the pinpoint-limbs-for-destruction combat system in the game.

"The release date is Fall 2008. Until you see something official from us on when the game will be out, take any date you see from anyone with large grains of salt," Bethesda's Pete Hines told us in March about release timings for the sequel.
