IGN have posted more on the Fo3/Bis saga, I'll just let you guys read it:<blockquote>Late last night, we recieved information from another source backing up the initial claims. "To set the record straight once and for all - Fallout 3 is cancelled, and Black Isle Studios has been effectively shut down, even if the name lives on. Fallout will probably continue to exist in console form, hence the 'Fallout lives' comment."
...
Our newest source says that Interplay seems to be relying on semantic loopholes. "Technically, I suppose they are correct: Black Isle Studios isn't shut down (still got two people left!) and Fallout 3 could not be cancelled since it was never announced." According to the previous source, the two remaining employees had been working on an unannounced console title before coming to work for Black Isle.
...
Although Interplay claims the future of Fallout 3 is "under review," our new source contests that laying off all but two employees dedicated to the Fallout 3 project, which comprised the majority of the Black Isle team, indicates that "They've gone pretty far beyond simply 'reviewing' its status." At best, it would appear that the game is on indefinite hiatus.</blockquote>Sigh, have IPLY hired the iraqi Information minister ?

You know, IGN's gone from covering this to just fucking milking it at this point. If they were actually interested in covering this, then one article would be all it took. Basically just stating that Interplay says BIS is still around, but the fact they laid off everyone seems to dispute that would have been enough, but they've stretched it to three days of articles on the subject.
 
Well can you blame them, those arcticles probally bring in a good ammount of revenue through their ad's.
