Yup, that's what people are getting into their mailbox these days. Fans all over the world have been emailing Interplay and complaining about their decision to close Bis and drop Fallout 3. Some guys have even gotten blacklisted by Interplay, here's the little "press release":<blockquote>Thanks for your note and comments on Interplay, its games, and recent actions.
For some reason, there has been a high amount of speculation about Black Isle Studios and intellectual property surrounding the Fallout license. My only guess is that the source of these rumors must be an employee/employees who recently departed Interplay.
My response to these rumors is quite simple: Interplay management makes decisions and takes action on items relating to product, personnel, costs, revenue, and more on a day-to-day basis, none of which would be deemed material by SEC regulations, and none of which would merit a public announcement or press release.
Accordingly, if Interplay management had closed its most valuable development asset or chosen to abandon one of its most prized intellectual assets, the Company would have made an announcement.
As always, Interplay management is focused on delivering great, profitable games and maximum shareholder value.</blockquote>So there you guys have it, it's all in our heads......and the heads of those that got fired, so get back to work all you Black Isle guys! </end sarcasm>
