"It's ultimately up to Amazon and where they will ship to from Amazon.com vs. Amazon.de or whatever localized URL folks would use," Hines said.

Original Story: Publisher Bethesda Softworks and retailer Amazon.com today revealed the Survival Edition of Fallout 3, an Amazon.com exclusive.

Along with all the goodies of the previously announced Collector's Edition--which will be available at retailers worldwide--the Survival Edition contains a life-size Pip-Boy 3000.

The Survival Edition sells for $120 on the PC and $130 on PS3 and Xbox 360, mirroring the price structure of the Collector's Edition--$70 on PC, $80 for consoles--and the standalone game itself, which goes for $50 on PC and $60 on consoles.

Based on the wrist-mounted devices worn by characters in-game, the Pip-Boy 3000 "has been painstakingly recreated and modified for real world display as a digital clock," according to Bethesda.

"At one point we seriously looked into the idea of building [a Pip-Boy 3000] that would actually work and interface with the game on some level," product manager Pete Hines wrote on the game's official site.

"That turned out to be a huge problem technically--getting it to work on three different platforms, and 10,000 issues here and there. So we bagged that and just went back to the original idea of "something that looks just like the one in the game, and it sits on my desk.'"

The first Bethesda-developed entry in the now-Bethesda-owned post-apocalyptic role-playing franchise, Fallout 3 is slated to hit PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 this fall.
