The latest Official Xbox Magazine in the UK has an interview with Bethesda's Todd Howard, where he brings the joyous news that Fallout 3 is still alive, still being developed on and actually feels real. As in, this time, it won't get canned.

We started work (on Fallout 3) in late 2004 with a few people. We only had about 10 people on it until Oblivion wrapped, but most of our staff is on it now.

We have pretty long preproduction phases on our stuff, doing concepts, design, building prototypes, and such. We should be ready soon to show it off, but we'll see.

Wonderful. And I'll presume that, seeing as this interview comes from an Xbox magazine, it'll be appearing on 360 as well as PC. Fantastic. Just make sure you get more than three voice actors this time. Luke Plunkett
