Bethesda has Nothing on Fallout MMO's Development
Bethesda's motion was denied in the U.S. District Court allowing Interplay to continue work on Project V13 or better know as the Fallout MMO. The suit was filed early this year because Bethesda claimed Interplay breached their contract in 2007 and did not have the rights to create a project under the Fallout franchise.

Since 2007 Bethesda is the owner of the Fallout franchise, giving them the licensing rights to all future Fallout games from that moment on but Bethesda had also apparently had given Interplay back license to create a Fallout MMO.

 

The drama started when Bethesda claimed that Interplay had not honored their part of the agreement by not starting on the MMO project at the agreed pace. So Bethesda began the lawsuit to gain the licensing rights back from Interplay and lost (yay~). Had the motion succeeded it is still not sure if Bethesda really wanted to develop the MMO themselves.

So it seems the work on Interplay's project will continue and we will be able to see more of the game sooner as it's being developed. Interplay has won the court battle but the reason why they won is still a mystery. All we know is the judge that made the ruling is Deborah K. Chasanow, which perhaps is a Fallout fan looking forward to a faster development of the MMO?

    I have to unfortunately admit that I've never played this, or any of the past Elder Scrolls. However, I do know Oblivion consumed ALOT of my time when I got that, and I heard the older games in the franchise were even better. So I'm downloading this even as I type right now.

    Excellent! this seems like it could be a great game if its anything like Fallout 3. Although i've never played the first 2.... so i guess its possible they could make it like them too. or they could make it entirely different. Guess we won't know till we got some screenshots!
