Fallout 3 revived!

No way this is handled in the right manner. Interplay has shown repeatedly that they don't care about the integrity of the license (see Fallout:Brotherhood of Steel and Fallout Tactics). I just don't see Interplay picking a decent devolopement company. I also doubt that Troika or any other company populated by the Black Isle staff has a shot at this.

I liked fallout:tactics.

granted, it's not a rpg. But it never billed itself as a rpg.

I never played that other one. I think that's a console game.

Yeah, Fallout:BoS (also known as: Fallout: PoS, which I am sure you can think of what it stands for ) was only released for PS2 and XBox AFAIK...

[CapTVK]

At this point I'm rather hoping the Devil Whiskey team will do a remake of Wasteland.

I heard the news and I felt happy.

Here's to the hopes it goes through and doesn't suck.

Obsidian has gone on a hiring spree. Are they hoping for the license?

I think it would be cool for them to have it, seeing how Obsidian is home to ol' Feargus and all...

[Grumbold]

I think they would have had to hire more just to scale up to the size of team to do KotOR2 justice now that they have the contract. Nothing would please me more than them getting FO3, either to carry on the current build or design anew, but it seems unlikely.

[Dis]

What has Obsidian done in the past? I don't recall ever hearing of them. I worry about them doing KOTOR2.

Although if they have Feargus, that is good news.

[ZargonX]

Unfortunately, I read today (on IGN, I think...) that the current scuttlebutt is that none of the previous work on the project (code named Van Bueren) is apparently going to be used by whomever takes over. Good-bye, Black Isle's efforts

[Dis]

that is worrysome. That means we are getting an entirely new game. Who knows how that will turn out.

anymore updates recently?

Rumor has it, Interplay is about to file bankruptcy, so the license will probably be sold to cover that. It's unclear as to who would buy it though.

[Spiffor]

Atari!
