Van Buren video compilation; as cool as the other side of the pillow

With the recent news of Bethesda purchasing the rights to the Fallout series from Interplay, all hope for a traditional Fallout title was smushed like so many Radscorpions under the jackboot of the Brotherhood of Steel.

In response to this, and to make everyone weep a lil inside, No Mutants Allowed have compiled the above video; a compilation of footage taken from the work Black Isle Studios had completed on Van Buren (the code name for Fallout 3), before they lost the rights to work on it (and were cast out of the Garden of Eden to walk the Earth until the end of their days feasting on human flesh).

A lot of this is stuff that I had yet to see, and, honestly, it makes me sad that we will never see any of this in a completed game. While I think Bethesda can make a passable title with the IP, it certainly won’t be like the game in the clips, and when you think Fallout, you want something like what you just watched, don’t you?
