[edit] Vehicles
Why is more than half of the article about cars? They wouldn't have been essential to the game. ~~Lumpy~~
[edit] Van Buren v. Fallout 3
I realize I just made this article, but I feel I should defend having an article on Van Buren AND Fallout 3 (Which doesn't exist, but should. I might make it later. The article that is. Not the game.). They are different games, and could end up with different stories, characters, etc. They should be defined as different games. And that's my two cents.

As I understand it there will be a sequel, but not from BlackIsle. Bethesda has apparently bought the rights to produce any sequel to the fallout-series. This supports the hypothesis of two different entries (fallout_van_buren and fallout_3) (per9000, non-wiki guy 2006 mar 28) see: http://www.bethsoft.com/news/pressrelease_071004.htm
Van Buren is vaporware, Fallout 3 is in production by Bethesda AS WE SPEAK. Someone needs to make a Fallout 3 page for the upcoming Bethesda game and move keep Van Buren as a seperate entry.
Btw, nowhere in the article is it mentioned that the game was cancelled. we can only see that in the "categories list". I'd rather not fix it myself as i'm not familiar with Van Buren, but afaik, as the user above me said, fallout3 is being devoloped as we speak. Chaotic Mind 17:30, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
It does make sense that Van Buren and Fallout 3 should be separate articles, as there seems to be (just barely) enough information to discuss Van Buren as more than just a footnote to the Fallout 3 article. However, I also agree that the Van Buren article needs revising, as it seems to have some misleading outdated wording that implies that the original game is still in development. I've added the {{update}} template tag to the article to give the issue higher visibility. --HunterZ 18:28, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
