With less than twenty days to go until Fallout 3 is unleashed upon the world, I'm finding it increasingly harder to contain my sheer joy and excitement.
While sadly I won't be playing the game on a PC -- believe me, I would if I could -- it's obvious a good number of you guys will, and that's why we're happy to unmask the system requirements for Bethesda's latest creation.
Unfortunately, you'll have to hit the jump to see 'em as they take up too much room to fit in this space. Oh, and while you're there, feel free to gloat about how awesome Fallout 3's meaty explosions are going to look on your rig.

Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Been there done that thanks for the useless info Bethesda..wake me when you got the next crysis level engine.
Wait, what's that? Noone is writing this down? Nobody cares if any of you can run it or not?
Nevermind then, just ignore this comment.
Also, if you bad mouth Left4Dead I will rip off your testicles, shove them down your throat, shove a large hook up your anus, and pull them through your body destroying all internal organs, and finally repeat the process all while saying, "BOOMER BOOMER BOOMER BOOMER."
