It has been revealed that Fallout 4 will have a total of 65 different songs on it's soundtrack. All of the 65 tracks on the soundtrack have been composed by Inor Zur specifically for the Fallout 4 game. The main menu music for Fallout 4 was already revealed before, but a lot of the music in the soundtrack has not yet been heard.
On top of revealing the 65 tracks on the Fallout 4 soundtrack, Bethesda has put up the soundtrack on iTunes for $16. So far, Bethesda has not revealed any plans to publish the soundtrack on other places, such as Soundcloud, Spotify, TIDAL, YouTube, Google Play Music or other spaces. That isn't to say that Bethesda won't publish the soundtrack on somewhere other than iTunes, but for right now, the only space to get it is on iTunes.
Whilst the full soundtrack costs $15.99, if you would like to, you can purchase separate tracks for $0.99 each - if you'd just like your favorite tracks, such as the main menu theme, then you'll be able to save some

The gun mechanics in Fallout 3 were a bit lacking compared to other first person shooter titles and whilst Fallout is an RPG title, it would still be nice to see an improvement in the gunplay. Fortunately Fallout 4 will be getting revamped gun mechanics and there will be plenty of changes to make the gunplay in Fallout 4 feel more like a traditional shooter.
It's great to see some positive changes being made to Fallout's combat system, but what were the changes inspired from, and what other game would be best compared to Fallout 4 when it comes to gun mechanics?
Surprisingly, Bethesda Studios hired a Bungie employee to help create a gun system that has been heavily influenced by Destiny. The gunplay in Destiny is undoubtedly very smooth - even if you dislike the game, there is no denying that the gun mechanics are very decent.
It's hard to say how much inspiration Fallout 4 will take from Destiny, but we do know that Bethesda also asked for help from Doom developer

After going a couple of months without any stock in sight, Bethesda suddenly announced new stock for the Fallout 4 Pip-Boy edition. In the past, the Pip-Boy collector's edition of Fallout 4 sold incredibly quickly.
It is expected that demand for the Pip-Boy edition this time round will be just as high or even higher than before so it's best that you act quickly if you'd like to have the chance of purchasing the collector's edition.
The new stock of the Pip-Boy edition is only available from Bethesda's official store. The version on the store is available for $120, just like everywhere else. Because of the huge demand, Bethesda could probably get away with selling the version for $300, but it's good to see that the price has stayed at $120.
Now that the launch of Fallout 4 is so close, it's likely that this new set of stock for the Pip-Boy edition will be the last chance for Fallout fans to get their hands on the version of Fallout 4. Once this stock has gone, fans will

The file size for the digital version of Fallout 4 has been leaked through Microsoft's listing of the game, and I must say, you will be pleasantly surprised to hear the numbers, especially if you're currently low on hard drive space.
There's no denying that Fallout 4 will be one of the most, if not the most expansive games released this year and as a result players are already expecting a large download size. Surprisingly though, Bethesda has done a great job at keeping the file size at a minimum.
If you choose to purchase Fallout 4 digitally on the Xbox One, you'll be looking at downloading and installing 28.12GB worth of space onto your console. The PlayStation 4 numbers haven't been revealed but they are likely to be very similar to the Xbox One's number.
At 28.12GB, you shouldn't have to worry at all about installing Fallout 4 onto your hard drive. It's also important to remember that you won't have to use any storage space for the base game if you purchase the

Fallout's Pete Hines has taken to Twitter to answer a few questions from Fallout 4 fans. As a result, we've managed to learn a few things about romance options, Fallout 3 on the PlayStation 4, and more details about the wasteland.
One PlayStation 4 owner asked whether Fallout 3 was going to make it's way to the PS4. He asked this question because it was recently confirmed that Fallout 3 will soon be playable on the Xbox One. Pete Hines responded by saying that Bethesda haven't worked to put Fallout 3 on the Xbox One but instead have simply allowed Microsoft the rights to make Fallout 3 backwards compatible.
For that reason, if the PS4 were to be backwards compatible as well then players would also be able to play Fallout 3 on the PlayStation 4. As it stands right now, however, only the Xbox One can play Fallout 3 via the Xbox 360 version of the game.
Further through the week Pete Hines mentioned that players will not be able to build settlements anywhere within the

Whilst the Pip-Boy collector's edition of Fallout 4 seemed like a big gimmick for a lot of gamers, it clearly is no joke to any Fallout fans out there. In fact, there will be no more Pip-Boy editions available for sale because they've all sold out.
Some rumors have circulated that Bethesda has purposely artificially limited the stock of the Fallout 4 collector's edition but Bethesda has opened up about the Pip-Boy and the truth is actually completely the opposite from this.
Despite Bethesda trying to increase production of the Pip-Boy as much as possible, the Fallout 4 Collector's Edition still sold out and Bethesda can no longer get hold of any more. In an interview with Gamespot, Bethesda's Pete Hines explained that, "We reached a point where we'd go back to the factories and they were like, 'guys, this is it, sorry.'"
When talking about keeping in touch with the factories responsible for production of the Pip-Boy, Hines mentioned, "We'd go back and say 'Demand for

Bethesda has recently released a brand new blog detailing a few things about the wearable Pip-Boy that will be coming with the Fallout 4 Special Edition.
In the blog post, Bethesda mentions that the Fallout 4 Special Edition units had all been sold out in North America, meaning that anybody in the region would not be able to purchase a special edition.
Bethesda did not confirm that other regions had sold out of the special edition as well, but they did suggest that stock is most likely very low worldwide. Here's a snippet from the blog post:
"Our North American quantities for the Pip-Boy Edition are sold out. We are still working out details on final inventory for European territories and expect to have information early next week. As we receive new information, we'll update in real-time on our Twitter account, @bethblog."
Further on in the blog post, Bethesda has also revealed that the Pip-Boy will not support all smartphones. Whilst the majority

After years worth of rumors and false information spreading across the internet about a new Fallout game, we may finally be hearing something official from Bethesda themselves. On Monday, some Fallout fans noticed that the official Fallout website design has changed.
The previous content on the Fallout website has been replaced with a large countdown timer that will end at some time tomorrow. As you can imagine, there's definitely going to be some kind of Fallout related announcement tomorrow and it it's very likely that it could be to do with a brand new Fallout game.
Considering that E3 is just around the corner it'd make perfect sense for Bethesda to announce a brand new game to grow hype ahead of the onslaught of other video games that are bound to be announced at E3.
Unfortunately we still have no idea about what the next Fallout game will be like and Bethesda has done an incredible job to keep everything hidden from their fans. Once the countdown timer is over,

Recently, Bethesda has revealed plans to hold a press conference at E3 in June, and by the sounds of it, it's going to be pretty big. But what could Bethesda be planning at their upcoming conference?
The first conclusion that many people will jump to is the announcement of Fallout 4. Yes, this could be a possibility, and considering all of the hype surrounding the rumored game so far, it would make sense.
The strange thing is that no matter how large a game Bethesda has announced, we've never seen a press conference as large as Bethesda is making their upcoming E3 conference to be.
Whilst it is planned for E3, the actual conference will be happening a few days before all of the chaos of the gaming show. The event will take place on a Sunday, on June 14th.
Before we straight up say it's most likely to be a Fallout 4 announcement, let's take a look at a few other things Bethesda could potentially show off. Firstly, the Doom reboot we've all been expecting for a
