Mr. Teatime informed me that he have interviewed none other then Leonard Boyarsky of Troika, here's a snibblet:<blockquote>Q: On the subject of Fallout 3, how do you feel about Bethesda getting the license, and what direction do you see them taking the series?
A: To be perfectly honest, I was extremely disappointed that we did not get the chance to make the next Fallout game. This has nothing to do with Bethesda, it’s just that we’ve always felt that Fallout was ours and it was just a technicality that Interplay happened to own it. It sort of felt as if our child had been sold to the highest bidder, and we had to just sit by and watch. As far as where they will take it, you’d have to ask them that. Since I have absolutely no idea what their plans are, I can’t comment on whether I think they’re going in the right direction with it or not.</blockquote>Too bad they did loose the bidding round..
