Today, Interplay announced that funding for the Fallout MMO ‘Project: V13’ has been secured thanks to a partnership with Masthead Studios. ‘Project V13’ sounds catchy, but its only a code name for an MMO that the company has had in development since 2007.
Rumor has it that ‘Project V13’ is a Fallout MMO. When Interplay sold Fallout to Bethesda, they kept the rights to create an MMO based on the property. Our tipster, community member dyslixec, points out that the ‘V13’ part of the name could refer to the infamous Vault 13 - the place where the journey begins -- in the original Fallout.
Subtle hint? Probably. No word on release, of course, but at least we know progress is still being made.
[Thanks, dyslixec!]

I hope they can pull if off and it doesn't suck!
Fallout as a franchise has been dead since the day Black Isle Studio's folded shop.
Just let it die before Interplay or Bethesda rapes it any further
because if it does not come I will smash babies
LOL at people who likely never played the first two thinking a soulless, glitchy Oblivion mod with guns is anything like the first two games in mood or humor.
