The Broken Steel update for the PC version of Fallout 3 has been taken down for repair. Bethesda explains why. Read more…
Seems that Fallout 3’s latest piece of trouble-plagued downloadable content, Broken Steel, has launched broken. Least, it is on PC. Shocking, I know.
A ton of people keen enough to install the game as soon as it went live this morning have been met with the following message:
Not a cryptographic message or the cryptographic message is not formatted correctly. (Exception from HRESULT: 0×8009200D)
And then the thing won’t work. Bethesda say they’re looking into it, but, well, as someone who hasn’t been able to play Fallout 3 on PC at all (it just won’t stop freezing on the menu screen, regardless of updates), this is all getting a bit depressing.
Several online retailers are listing a DVD containing the Fallout 3 Broken Steel expansion and something called Point Look, leading to speculation that more downloadable content is on the way.

ccording to the latest issue of Famitsu, third-person “acrobatic” shooter WET has found a new publisher in Bethesda Softworks. Orphaned by Activision-Blizzard last Summer, the A2M-developed game has been without a publisher following Sierra’s extinction.
Retail listings for WET also back up Famitsu’s mention (by way of Siliconera) the game’s new home, with GameFly listing Bethesda as the game’s publisher. While WET’s not the typical fare for Bethesda, who are better known for work on The Elder Scrolls series and Fallout 3, we’d think it’s a good opportunity for the developer-publisher to expand its slate, while saving an interesting looking shooter at the same time.

Broken Steel, the third downloadable episode for the PC and Xbox 360 version of Fallout 3, will raise the game’s level cap to 30 and remove the games ending on May 5, Bethesda announced this week.

Yup folks Bethesda’s Today announced a new Fallout game Named Fallout: New Vegas its coming in 2010 for PC,Xbox360 and PS3..
Dwell On It points out that back in February Bethesda Softworks applied for a trademark on the word Fallout for “entertainment services in the nature of an on-going television program.”
It could be a case of covering all of your bases, or maybe they really are thinking about turning the role-playing game into a tv show. We’ve contacted Bethesda for comment and will update as soon as we hear something.
