Is F3 a part of the Fallout canon?

[Wintermind]

The developers right the story? how do you "right" something?

You do the opposite of 'lefting' it. Duh.

I myself have decided on a rather neutral point in-between FO3's "canon" and FONV's canon. I myself prefer to call FONV, Fallout 3. And FO"3" renamed as Fallout: Capital Wasteland or something like that. On that point I consider FONV/FO3 as solid canon, and FO"3"/FOCW as semi-cannon that can be brushed away by the true sequel to Fallout 2. If you like, compare Fallout "3" to Fallout Tactics (on canon not on gameplay), semi-canon, nothing more, nothing less.

That is my opinion (nothing more, nothing less and so on), I hope other people could see this as their opinion as well as I believe it's quite a valid one.

Indeed it is, and I completely agree with you.

As a huge Bethesda fan, I would have to say that FO:3 is not canon. I think that when they made the game they decided they were gonna treat it as if it had been their property all along. I view FO:NV to be more true to the series and closer to a direct sequel.
