Changes to the Megaton quest stop players from detonating a nuclear weapon at the heart of the city...

The Japanese arm of Bethesda has published a list of changes to the Japanese version of Fallout 3 from the European and North American releases. Included in the list is the eradication of the NPC Mr. Burke, thereby stopping players from detonating the nuclear bomb in Megaton during The Power of the Atom quest.

Other areas of censorship include Bethesda's decision to pull an unnamed weapon from the game (very possibly the Fat Man Tactical Nuclear Catapult), as well as some cleaning up of the more gorey elements in the Western release.

This is not the first time Bethesda has had to censor Fallout 3. In order to please the Australian ratings board Bethesda pulled drug references from the game's release in the territory, although we find these latest Japanese changes more understandable to be honest.

Fallout 3 is due for release in Japan at the beginning of next month.

i hope fallout 4 is running off a stable skyrim engine and follows the story from fallout 3 right after you defeated the enclave only this time your in a different city, i know its been overused but new york state would be a perfect location to continue the story plus i miss the metro tunnels so new york is an ideal location.

The Bethesda studio that developed Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, and Fallout 3 previously never worked on any of those projects simultaneously - there's no reason to assume they'd start doing that now.

i would have though the next fallout game would run off the skyrim engine just like fallout 3 running off the oblivion engine, 3 years is an unrealistic time scale 1 or 2 years is more realistic as for all we know fallout 4 could have been in development alongside skyrim but kept hidden which would have been very easy given the scale of intrest in skyrim up untill launch (lol now you can breathe, my grammer is poor i know.).

@Post 138: I guess it's possible that Bethesda could have decided to farm out the next Fallout to another developer again, as they did with Obsidian on New Vegas. If so, it's possible the next Fallout could arrive within the next year or two I guess.

If Bethesda Softworks are planning on making Fallout 4 next though, then it'll be a good three years at least before it's released. The gap between Fallout 3 and Skyrim was three years, and there's the added complication of next-gen consoles to factor-in this time.

Well since Skyrim finally came out, fallout 4 should be the next project bethesda is working on, plus since new vegas came out a while back it's gotta be about time for a new one, any idea what city is the lucky one to be laid waste too?

@Post 136: You may have to make do with New Vegas to be honest as it could be a long wait for the next Fallout from Bethesda Softworks - the studio only just finished work on Skyrim after all...
