Anybody knows Van Buren's materials' and developers' lot?

azor

First time out of the vault
I have just finished Fallout and Fallout 2 games. It was incredible.
After reading some materials about Van Buren, Interplay, Black Isle and Troika i still have some questions. Especially after reading this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Buren_(Fallout)
and looking at screenshots and concepts.
What happened to 3D engine, prepared levels, game scripts, models and scenario about war between BoS and NCR?
Has Bethesda rights on whole Fallout world or only trademark?
How much does rights on S.P.E.C.I.A.L. system cost?
And the main question: where are Cain, Anderson, Boyarsky and other designers now working?
Can i hope putting them in one place and force to finish project Van Buren? [just joking]

Bethesda got all that.

Neither. They have the rights to create Fallout 3 and the option to create a Fallout 4 and 5. That's it.

How the hell should we know?
Though, judging by the tremendous amount of money Gluttoncreeper must be pouring into their shitty project, not much.

Yeah, can you actually do any research for yourself or do you come around just asking every question you can think of?
Yeesh.

Ask them.

I'll answer that one: NO. They had shit all to do with Van Buren and doubt you'd entice them in any way to finished that MCA/JES game, anymore than you could expect Bethesda to do so.

Also, moved to General Fallout
 
As far as I know bethesda didn't get Van Buren stuff, Obsidian bought all docs and materials of Van Buren and Jefferson from Interplay quite while ago.

Not all, but Obsidian has quite a bit of it, yes.
 
Jericho

ON the world map one of the towns is Jericho, not too far from Denver. There is an ABC tv show called Jericho, with Jericho nto being too far from Denver. Has anyone noticed this? ABC Jericho staff said they were too busy to comment on this for me, I wonder if maybe one of them had known of the Fallout series? Or am I just really stupid and there really is a Jericho near Denver?
