In hereyou`ll find concept art of a cancelled game. Many of those drawings and sketches were made by people that now works with Obsidian. It`s only four pages.

 

You made me sad. :-

Why did he make you sad?

Because that game, like BG3, will never be made now :)

Well... I don't know about the rest of male geeks around here, but being "not authorized" isn't exactly what I would call a "wet dream". Perhaps I'm not enough of a geek? :p

I suspect none of it, at least not offically, since it most of it was released to the public in one way or another.

In case you didn't notice, it is a dynamic link (argument parsed into a php command string), which cannot be directly linked. Seems like I can't even link to it now!

Bethesda said officially that their Fallout 3 will have absolutely nothing to do with Van Buren.

I don't know what we could have expected. It's not like Bethesda was going to take what BIS had and run with it. Could they have theoretically bought the whole thing and finished it? I suppose, but come on...

Who did they buy the rights from? I thought Interplay was gone when Bethesda bought the rights to F3.

I don't recall, but Interplay had folded but still retained the rights as I understood it. I remember that Herve Caen was still trying to work out a deal unto the last minute.

 

Apparently they filed with the SEC on 8-19, so theoretically they're still alive. On the other hand, I simply don't understand most of it. Anyhow, for the legally minded folks, here's the link:

EDIT: here's a grimly funny link to their current web page, from which you can try to contact investor relations and link to their SEC filings. Ah hell, it's short. I'll just cut and paste.

 

Interplay Entertainment Corp. is a developer, publisher and licensor of interactive entertainment software for both core gamers and the mass market. We are most widely known for our titles in the action/arcade, adventure/role playing game (RPG), and strategy/puzzle categories. We have produced titles for many of the most popular interactive entertainment software platforms, and currently are focusing our publishing and distribution business by developing interactive entertainment software for the On Line Massively Multiplayer market.

 

 

 

We seek to publish or license out interactive entertainment software titles that are, or have the potential to become, franchise software titles that can be leveraged across several releases and/or platforms, and have published many such successful franchise titles to date.

 

 

 

We publish and distribute interactive entertainment software titles that provide immersive game experiences by combining advanced technology with engaging content, vivid graphics and rich sound. We utilize the experience and judgment of the experienced gamers in our production group to select and produce the products we publish.

 

 

 

Our strategy is to invest in products for those platforms, whether PC or video game console, that have or will have sufficient installed bases or a large enough number of potential subscribers for the investment to be economically viable. We do not currently internally develop new products. As we anticipate continued substantial growth in the use of high-speed Internet access, which could provide significantly expanded market potential for online products, we are focusing our efforts to launching an online service, entitled GamesOnLine, allowing consumers to become part of a unique online community of gamers and access selected content.
