I love this screenshot.
Lots of new Fallout 3 previews hitting the intrawebs. There's a great list of them at bethblog. I would say my favorite ones are the 1UP preview with Jeff Green and Shawn Elliot - very entertaining read - and the Kotaku preview is pretty good too.
Some quotes I liked from Kotaku:
From a training system tied to a child's development to the fifties-meets-Steampunk look of weapons, Fallout 3 may not have a solid date yet, but after seeing this build, I can honestly say I am well and truly smitten.
Everything I saw about this game was impressive, but what really got my attention was its overall art style. The optimistic fifties design juxtaposed against the destroyed landscape is a great choice and is seen everywhere from the HUD to the atomic design of Vault 101. Seeing it sprinkled around the world gave me the same feeling I got the first time I saw the art-deco wonders of BioShock. It's nostalgic yet at the same time seems so fresh and new because we rarely see that style of design in modern games, especially FPSs. It also gave the design team a chance to inject the game with a subtle humor that is evident throughout, even seeping its way into the dialog choices and sound.
Fallout previews galore
