More Court Drama

Post by POOPERSCOOPER »

<strong>[ Company -> Update ]</strong>

<p>Remeber when Bethesda got the license and all the sites kept reporting it to be Fallout 3, 4, and 5. Well it looks like Interplay is about to use that to its advantage. The question being also is New Vegas going to be considered Fallout 4? The possiblities are endless. RPGcodex reports;</p>
<p> </p>
<p><em>VG247 <a href="http://www.vg247.com/2011/01/21/audio-% ... ore-139817" target="_blank">conducted a phone interview</a> with Pete Hines last night, reports NMA.</em></p>
<blockquote>
<p><em><span>"We own the rights to the MMO,&rdquo; he said when asked if Caen&rsquo;s comments were true.

He continued: &ldquo;We own the rights to everything Fallout. The licence is ours. Fallout belongs to us. That&rsquo;s what I&rsquo;ll clarify.

&ldquo;Beyond that, I&rsquo;m not commenting on anybody else&rsquo;s comments. It&rsquo;s a legal matter. A specific MMO or project or any of that stuff, the lawyers are all going to sort it out.&rdquo;</span></em></p>
</blockquote>
<p><em><span><a href="http://www.vg247.com/2011/01/21/audio-% ... ore-139817" target="_blank">Listen to it.</a></span></em></p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><em><span>Additionally, there's an interview with Eric Caen at Eurogamer. <a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011- ... ld-be-ours" target="_blank">Fallout 6 could be ours</a>.</span></em></p>
<blockquote>
<p><em>"We sold the Fallout IP to Bethesda in exchange for a certain amount of cash and the right to do the Fallout MMO," he said. "If they refuse to let us do the game, then the sale of the IP is terminated, and they will be allowed to do only one more Fallout, 5.</em></p>
<p><em>"But in that case, the IP will come back to us, and of course, we will complete our work and release Fallout MMO."</em></p>
<p> </p>

My prediction is Bethesda loses the Fallout IP after buying Obsidian with the intent they develop all of their future Fallout games, leaving us in a situation where we get Fallout 5 from that team and nothing else.

The upside is we might go back to isometric turn-based, or my dream of having a Tactic's like CTB option, but I doubt it.

I think while getting fucked in his nose he'd try to sound smart and stay serious, explaining how his rapists lacks emotions and a soul, and then he'll tell him about the girl he <strike>met</strike> alienated online a few days ago with his tedious stories about how he perceives life.... :bang: :monster: :hammer: :poke: :blowme: :punch: :axe: :chaingun: :laser: :dinosaur:

I'd sooner play that than, say, TES V. How about replacing Toad Howard with Cakester? Two birds with one stone, yeah? :dance:
