They are apparently from Bethesda, and the one on the left offers a nice high resolution shot of an NCR soldier (check out the reflection in his goggles).

One staple of Sci-Fi I never understood:

Glowing goggles.

Wouldn't they be hard to see through? :S

Yup. Not much that could make your face more of a target.

True, but part of the beauty of fiction is drama. Think about the effect of seeing those eyes coming at you in the dark after you shot them. Nice wallpapers.
Appearing stupid is sexier than being stupid. Although I hear stoopid was a cut perk in fallout three, but was abandoned when the devs found out it could be simulated by simply playing the game...

Bethesda wasn't even the copyright holder. It was some website called Game Wallpapers or something. Apparently the Dutch website that Kharn pointed out to me was not the source of the images...Bethesda gave backroom deals to the game wallpaper website. What's probably the case, though, is that Bethesda saw the images up here and told the website that they had to do the work to get us to take them down. It's the same thing they do with magazine scans...they act as the police for the magazine, even though it means more publicity for their games.

Sounds like they are of the same strata of retard as viacom when it comes to back handed publicity deals and prompt fuckery of the self same publicity generated online by public forums.

"Exclusive content" in exchange for free publicity that's shoddily disguised under a thin, sickly patina of softball questions, blind adulation and all around cheerleading.

A mutual stroke job.

What the fuck is shitty about a Colt Single Action Army? Hell of a lot better than that scoped .44 mag nonsense, or God forbid a Desert Eagle.
