Bethesda Looking Into Fallout 3 Leak

Were you the one that leaked Fallout 3? Well, you better not be, because Bethesda is looking to find out just who did! Bethesda VP Pete Hines says they've narrowed it down and they're gonna get you!

"We're looking into it. Since we haven't sent out a single disc, it greatly reduces the number of places this might have come from."

Who cares? They are still gonna make mega millions.

Only about 1% of console owners know how to mod a console. And that one percent will not make that big a difference.

Burn em at the stake on public television. That'll deter pirates for a couple hours. It does suck for the company tho but I doubt it'll affect the bottom line too much. It's gonna be a huge seller.

...the temps bought the Wii because they didn't work long enough or make enough to buy the 360 or PS3, but now with the 360 price drop they all will buy a 360 so they can play Fallout 3.

...Sorry, I'm going to have to agree with 622 - it was teh janitor.

6 - I hope they don't find "the guy"
That means I won't be getting any more early releases! Oh BTW, if you love Oblivion and FPS games, you'll love Fallout 3: guaranteed. I'm at Tenpenny tower right now. Unfortunately I have a strange motion-sickness with this game, but I'm sure I'll hammer it out eventually.

@thereapersson
I can't compare Fallout 2 to Fallout 3 because Fallout 2 was mainly overhead view, I'd compare that more to Diablo 2, by which it's very good! Fallout 3 will definitely take a toll on your social life, but IMO it's pretty darn worth it right now. The only game I can compare Fallout 3 to is STALKER. Fallout 3 feels less immersible than STALKER:Shadows of Chernobyl, but that's better for the casual RPG gamer because that's less commitment on their part as well. It's like comparing Tekken 5 to Virtua Fighter 5. Are you getting the idea?

@the bubble repo guy
My copy of Fallout 3 is paid in full at Gamecrazy. I'm was too tempted to grab the game because it's 2 weeks before release. I just couldn't resist. I admit, I did the same with Halo 3 when it got leaked, and I ended up buying the Limited Edition. Didn't preorder because the pre-order list was insane.

Why don't you stop stereotyping? You know, bigotry and prejudice isn't the way to earn respect either.

Hmm It seems they could easily find the leak if a disc was never released.

I mean how many people would have access to the finished product? Thats a real question by the way if anyone knows.

this is what the leaker says during his live streaming play:

"I am the assistant general counsel of ZeniMax Media, the parent company of Bethesda Softworks LLC."

7.2 - That IF
the leaked version was the gold one, but if it was the reviewers one it could take longer and i think there is no way in hell to know.

If this was released from within, then whoever did it has just killed their career. I suspect newbie games tester. Nobody else would be as stupid.

I wonder if pirated games qualify as user-generated content? That'd be a double-whammy for Microsoft. ^_^
