What's better than cracking open an ice cold bottle of Nuka Cola right after you've blown a Ghouls heads off with your favorite SMG? Well we may have something for ya. We've already gotten a few downloadable expansions for Fallout 3, but soon, fans of the series will get to enjoy a whole new Fallout game. Bethesda has announced that Fallout: New Vegas will launch this fall for the PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 and it looks tasty great...

Although Bethesda is publishing the game, Fallout: New Vegas is actually being developed by Obsidian Entertainment. Shacknews pointed out last year that the Obsidian team includes veterans from Black Isle Studios, the developers of the original Fallout series, so the franchise would appear to be in good hands.

The new title purportedly takes "all the action, humor, and post-apocalyptic grime and grit of this legendary series, and raises the stakes." Bethesda told the Shack that New Vegas won't be a sequel to Fallout 3, but another Fallout game set in the same universe.
