    i have never heard any official quotes or info on this topic from bethesda. 
    i think its safe to say that with new engines and more modern better graphics and ai aswell as lookin at the difference between oblivion and skyrim...that fallout 4 if it ever happens could be mind blowing.

    i hope its due to come out at some point. please tell me they are developing it or something.

    Yes, most likely.  Here are some quotes I found by T. Howard.

    "I think it's good for people to miss things," said Todd Howard, executive producer of the game. "Ten years between 'Fallout' is a bit long, but I think there's this nostalgia factor."

    Fans of the post-Apocalyptic game, set in Washington, D.C., won't have to wait another decade for "Fallout 4." Howard said he believes three years is a good time frame between games. Todd Howard also has mentioned that they didn't acquire Fallout for one game.  (FO:NV was developed by Obsidian Entertainment).  Sounds like we'll see FO:4 to me.  I suspect an announcement this year.

    RuneRed, do you know if there's anymore game conventions this year? I don't know the 'season' for them or timeline. Those are usually when they will make announcements. I'm kinda hoping for a release next year, Q4. I think it would work fantastic on the Skyrim engine.

    I don't know of any in the US - but I'm not 'in the know' about that sort of thing.

    There's a big one in Germany in mid-August (stumbled onto the info by accident), but I doubt we'll see an announcement there.

    I also found this list, but it includes various types of games (not just video games).

    aye, this October will mark four ... I'm wondering if FO:NV (which was released in Oct, 2010) might have delayed any FO:4 release a bit.

    I was hoping for San Fran, but I guess I'll settle for Boston.

    I don't think we'll be seeing Fallout 4 by next year. we may get a 2 minute trailer next year but that's all I expect. With three more DLC coming out for Skyrim, Bethesda is going to want to see that through.

    Is there any statement from Bethesda saying that they're actually going to release three more DLCs for Skyrim?

    Good guess, but it seems unlikely.
