Fallout 3, RE 5 in 2008, Final Fantasy 360 Never 136
In addition to the truly excellent trailer, yesterday Bethesda Softworks let slip the platforms on which Fallout 3 will be playable. CVG reports on an article in the upcoming issue of Game Informer magazine, which describes some of the gameplay and states the title will be on offer for the PC, 360, and PlayStation 3 sometime in Fall of 2008. Meanwhile, Eurogamer is reporting that Capcom won't be letting Resident Evil 5 out of the holding pen until at least April of next year. For now they're relying on the Wii port of the title and other offerings to see them through the year. Finally, if you were hoping to play Final Fantasy XIII on the Xbox 360, you'll be waiting a long time. IGN has word that there are no plans for any FF games on Microsoft's console.

If you're into Fallout 3, don't miss the original Fallout 3 Van Buren design documents [demonoid.com]. Cool stuff. Going to be interesting to see if anything survives from there.

And please God, don't let them contract out to another company to do a half-assed port.

Nintendo had been the sole Final Fantasy Console for years when Sony stepped in and took it. Now Nintendo has FF titles again (weak ones, but still...) so there's nothing stopping them from doing the 360. They are probably fishing for a big check from everyone's favorite monopoly first.
