It will be made available in North America for both PC and Xbox 360 and will run you $19.99 and $29.99, respectively. At this point, according to a post from the firm, it isn’t “allowed to release it for PS3″ at present, but if the situation “changes at some point, we’ll let folks know.”

Bethesda concept artist Adam Adamowicz, who created amazing art for Fallout 3, Skyrim and other Bethesda titles, has passed away after a long battle with cancer. The sad news was quietly announced by Pete Hines after Skyrim won big during the Academy of Arts & Sciences awards at DICE. A lovely tribute to the man who helped create some of the wonderful games we enjoy, and written by a fellow concept artist, can be found over on Awesome Robo. Our thoughts and most sincere condolences go out to each one of his family and friends.

It may technically be Wednesday where I’m sitting, but I live in the future so I’m calling it Tight Arse Tuesday. Today’s feature is even thriftier than discount cinema tickets as the wonders of the Internet hand it over entirely free of charge and with nary a family-friendly Ashton Kutcher in sight.

What Fallout: Nuka Break delivers instead is ghouls, shooting, radiated recovery items, informative Pip Boy segments, astounding production values and laughs. See the whole fan-made film through the break.

Most RPGs have a built-in reward for your painstaking efforts to grow stronger than the fierce, two-foot-tall sewer rats of the world: you get to beat the stuffing out of the baddies who hung you from flagpoles and gave you swirlies back in the day.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, though? Not so much.

According to a couple bits of commenting over on Bethesda’s forums, PS3 owners in Canada are having issues importing save games for Fallout 3 to the GOTY edition.

It looks as though previous Capital Wasteland save files are not being recognized, and forum posters suspect that it’s due to either improper/outdated patching or the GOTY edition isn’t compatible with the version of the GOTY sold in the region.

Bethesda is aware of the issue and is trying to figure things out before making an official statement.

Thanks, Joystiq.
