Fallout fansite No Mutants Allowed has posted a tech demo of Van Buren, Black Isle Studios' Fallout 3 project that was cancelled in late 2003.
Speaking about the contents of the tech demo, the fansite explained, "Don't forget that this is a pre-alpha tech demo from 2003: the combat is pretty much unimplemented (sucky realtime only), the graphics are really basic."
It continues, "The file is a whopping 241 MB, but don't be disappointed that it doesn't offer a full night's worth of gameplay (though in true Fallout style, it offers a lot of different paths to victory)," adding that "the demo is very, very buggy" and that anyone who downloads it should "expect frequent crashes."
Along with a download link, the fansite is also providing a tech demo guide.
Development of Fallout 3 has of course now fallen into the hands of Bethesda, which is planning to release a first trailer in June.
