I wasn't even aware it wasn't finalized yet, but it certainly is now, Interplay moving fool steam ahead on Project V13 by finalizing the MMO agreement with Masthead.<blockquote>INTERPLAY AND MASTHEAD STUDIOS FINALIZE AGREEMENT TO DEVELOP MASSIVELY MULTIPLAYER ONLINE GAME

LOS ANGELES, CA, January 21, 2010 — Interplay Entertainment Corp. (OTC BB:IPLY) announced today that the Company has signed definitive agreements with Masthead Studios concerning the development of Interplay’s post-apocalyptic Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG), code named “Project: V13.”

Project: V13 has been under development at Interplay since November 2007 by some of the original Fallout® creators. Masthead joined the project in early 2009 and development continues under Interplay’s direction and control. Project: V13 will utilize the proprietary tools and MMOG technology Masthead developed for its “Earthrise” project.

Commenting on the announcement, Interplay Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Herve Caen said, “Masthead’s technology is impressive and perfect for our Project: V13. Its team is passionate to bring our vision and game play to the market. This MMOG will have many unique features that we will disclose before launch of the public Beta in 2012.”

Masthead Studios President Atanas Atanasov said, “Project: V13 incorporates many creative and technological innovations. We believe it will be a unique experience. Our technology will continue to evolve in order to realize all the extraordinary content and features Interplay has designed.”

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.</blockquote>
 
I can see it now...
Bethesda evokes the nuclear wrath of some terrorist organization to wipe out the source of the Project Vault 13 beta. The US government thinking it is under attack by the Chinese begins launching its own nukes. Russia gets involved, and soon in 2 brief hours most of the world is reduced to cinders.

That would be the nuclear option alright since Bethesda is right down the street from D.C
 
Oh no! I know what causes the apocalype now:

September 2012
Interplay announces a closed beta. A few NMAers weasel their way into the tests... information leaks to the NMA front-page about Interplays cannon reconciliation programme. Not only did Fallout Tactics happen, FO3 plus BOS 1 and 2 also occurred, leaving logic paradoxes that confuse and twist the minds of the fans.

The next day there are reports of people running in the streets shouting "Burn it all down. We can make a better game". All the closet psychos finally realise that the reason they where put on this earth was to make a good fallout game with photo realistic graphics, and dynamic dialogue trees.
