By way of twitter, InXile's Brian Fargo shares a piece from the Wasteland project the company was working on a few years back, when Fallout artist Jason D. Anderson was with the company.

Concept art from old InXile Wasteland project

What ever happened to the good old pencil and paper, I'm not fond of these collages. Compare the Wasteland concept artwork to the one from Van Buren - but that's just me...

I don't even understand what that thing in the left bottom corner is. I sincerely hope that it's not something like Fallout-esque 50s technology, I really want to play a more of an 80s/90s apocalypse (with the respective music, of course).
Also, damn, Van Buren. Naughty Mr Caen.

But best title ever!
The display and the buttons don't look retro-futuristic to me at all.. well okay, maybe now that we're in 2012 that stuff could be considered retro-futuristic, but there's still plenty of similar tech available. Looks like something that could have been conceived/built in the 80s/90s.
It reminds me a lot of something out of M.A.R.K. 13 Hardware. Pretty fitting for a Wasteland game, imo.

Why does the radio have sharp looking pieces but the tape is all blurred? It's like someone's photoshopped googled images together.
Probably because someone photoshopped googled images together.

Uh, maybe that's because Wasteland was never supposed to be retrofuturistic?

Uhm, I was replying to Sub-human who was talking about 50s-esque techonology.

Apparently taping batteries to an old cellphone makes it work.

I always imagined Wasteland like that, even before I played it - when I read about it for the first time.
It would be great if the sequel is done like that.

Just check out the punks and brawlers and stuff. They are like out of a 80s sci-fi movie with their glasses and such.
I like the concept art. What is it called? Tech-Punk? Tech-Junk-Punk? Reminds me of that computer nerd/god you visit in The Mysterious Journey.

I just classed it as Industrial 80's or 90's, the punk monicker gets thrown around way to much.
A Mad Max/80's Action Movie vibe would be totally awesome.

Exactly, that should be the way to go.
I think the best intro song would be Queen's Hammer to Fall. Although them having the money to license a Queen song is rather unlikely.
