Awesome Fallout 3 Propaganda: Vault Dweller's Survival Guide

Shacknews writes: "Remember those old Fallout manuals? The ones with the taped-over hints and 50s-style dark humor? The original Vault Dweller's Survival Guide?

Bethesda has channeled all of that in their PAX 08 swag hand-out for Fallout 3: a thick, pulpy booklet full of illustrations and informative blurbs. It's basically Bethesda's take on Black Isle's original concept, and boy, is it awesome.

This thing even has an old school map that you can fill in as you explore the world, as well as a few pages of blank note space. It's very cool - and you can check out the whole shebang below."

I've got both of the original manuals in pristine condition. If Bethesda would ship these with the game I'd be eternally grateful.

Fallout 2's manual was a friggin spiral notebook. I wish I still had mine. All I have is the original humongous box.

2 - The manuals are rare.....
.......but the walkthrough guides which were written by one the staff working on the game are virtually extinct a mint of the original is worth about £100. Fallout 2's about £60. Because they contain extra info and commentary aswell as the tips etc. I havent seen one on ebay in years.

ALSO FALLOUT FTW.
