Incredibly specific patch news now, with the release of a save recognition remedy for the French Canadian version of Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition (product code “BLUS-30455″). The patch will allow the GOTY re-release of Bethesda’s wasteland wandering sim to recognize save files generated by Fallout 3 sans accolades.
As a Bethesda community manager helpfully points out, your old save files will only show up if there are new saves (GOTY) present — if you only have old saves, start a new game and, you know, save. If you have in excess of 130 save files (a sign of prudence!), you’ll have to delete older ones in order for the new ones to be displayed. Oh, and one more thing: “If your saves are taking a long time to load you might want to resave them and back up or remove the old ones.”
And now we’ve exhausted our supply of the word “save,” save for one which we were keeping for the en … dammit, we wasted it!

Ever since Fallout 3’s Vault Boy went to space in Mothership Zeta, we’ve been at a loss for where to find the congenial gent. Alas, we never expected to see his mercurial face gracing the cover of a Massachusetts pizza shop’s menu. Expresso Pizza of Billerica, Ma. put the young lad to work on the menu’s cover, holding a pizza and pretending he’s a waiter. We all know you’re a Capital Wasteland Wanderer, silly Vault Boy!
The only question now is “How long until Bethesda shuts this down?” We contacted the Fallout publisher to find out its reaction, and were told, “Well he is a big part of our Fallout brand and is copyrighted, so, yeah, deciding on your own to use him to promote your business or product, or to sell stuff, or whatever, without getting permission from us … not a good idea.” Ruh oh!
(Thanks, Dan)

With original Fallout IP holder Interplay currently embroiled in a legal battle with new Fallout IP holder Bethesda Softworks, it’s no surprise that the most recently “leaked” images from Interplay’s Project V13 are said to be from an “anonymous, but reliable” source. The Vault Wiki even goes as far as to claim that the images are directly from Interplay, saying “These screenshots were actually submitted by Interplay as court evidence to show that the game is in full production already.”
Putting on our super sleuth detective caps, a Nuka-Cola billboard and the inclusion of a supermutant in these screens certainly confirms they are from some form of Fallout game. Big Download points out that these screens look awfully similar to concept art released by Interplay not too long ago. Without any solid confirmation from Interplay as to the origin of these screens though, we’re gonna have to keep it filed strictly under the “rumor” category for now.

Canadian owners of the Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition may soon have a fix for the save game issue plaguing their corner of the globe. As reported a couple weeks back, those friendly folks of the north are having problems getting the GOTY edition to recognize save files created by the original retail release of the game.
Bethesda now has a fix for the problem, which is currently being tested. There is no word on when it’ll release, but hopefully it’ll be before the Chinese actually invade Anchorage.
[Thanks, Harry S.]
