You can pre-order Fallout 4 (opens in new tab) on Xbox One right now, and pass the time until November 10 with Fallout 3 – as long as you don’t mind plugging your Xbox 360 back in.

Pre-orders for Bethesda’s latest post-nuclear role-playing game are live on on the Xbox Store (opens in new tab). And as Bethesda and Microsoft announced back at E3, pre-ordering the Xbox One version will also net you a download code for Fallout 3 on Xbox 360. The code should arrive in your Xbox message box seven to 10 days after you complete the Fallout 4 pre-order.

Too bad Fallout 3 isn’t on the Xbox One backwards compatibility list (opens in new tab) yet, or else Preview Program members could have it all on one console straight away. Still, free Fallout 3 is a pretty compelling reason to pick up Fallout 4 up on Xbox, assuming you’re one of those inscrutable few who hasn’t already spent dozens of hours as a Lone Wanderer.
