December 15, 2009 - It would appear that the first round of drama over the Fallout license has ended in Interplay's favor. Bethesda had initially claimed earlier this year that the packaging design and marketing of the compilation could cause customers to become confused between the original titles and Fallout 3. Furthermore, it claimed that Interplay had not begun serious development on the Fallout MMO, a claim that Interplay disputed.

According to a court document found by the website Duck and Cover, a US District Court judge denied Bethesda Softwork's injunction against Interplay on December 10, which sought to block the publishing of the Fallout Trilogy compilation and MMO version of the franchise.

More of the story in the link.

tl;dr
Bethseda was basically fighting over the Fallout license with Interplay saying people will get the Fallout Interplay makes confused to Bethsedas Fallout. The were trying to stop a supposed Fallout MMO from being published because they say no serious work had been done on it which I guess Interplay disputed.

So Interplay is working on a Fallout MMO that Bethseda tried to stop.

**** yoooou Bethseda.

Bethesda, like any company, has corporate cronies who are paid to do this kind of thing. You think this is only Bethesda that would pull this? It's about money and most companies would try the exact same thing in Bethesda's situation. It doesn't make it justified, but it shouldn't be so damn shocking. Quit overreacting.

****ing sucks.

I enjoyed Fallout 3 a lot. Really nice gameplay and a lot to explore. I was hooked on it for months.

Do not see how a fallout MMO would good. I really hate what developers are doing with the "leveling up gun damage" or whatever.
Fallout was alright but would've been better if guns had realistic damage.

Though I never played 1 or 2 so I donno how Interplay would handle it

But it just comes to me as odd that they're fighting for rights that was never theirs in the beginning. Although I'm not sure how Bethseda got the OK from interplay to make Fallout 3. Interplay probably said "Ok you can do it, but we still own the title".

Plus for New Vegas Bethseda isn't even making it. Obsidian is, and they have a few guys who worked on the original Fallout. So where do they fall between this triangle of Interplay, Obsidian and Bethseda?

if they made that mmo none of you would play it because it would have been made in the first two game's style and none of you have ****ing played the first 2 games.
