    [​IMG]According to their latest 10k form Interplay is about to face a massive lawsuit from Bethesda to force them to terminate their license agreement of 2007 to develop Fallout Online.

    Interplay recently received notice that Bethesda Softworks, LLC ("Bethesda") intends to terminate the trademark license agreement between Bethesda and Interplay which was entered into April 4, 2007 for the development of FALLOUT MMOG. Despite the fact that no formal action is currently pending, Bethesda claims that Interplay is in breach of the trademark license agreement for failure to commence fill scale development of same by April 4, 2009 and to secure certain funding for the MMOG. Interplay adamantly disputes these claims. Although the potential damages are currently unknown, if Bethesda ultimately prevails and cancels the trademark license agreement, Interplay would lose its license back of the "Fallout" MMOG and any damages resulting therefrom are unknown at this time.

    I knew it wouldn't work, I just didn't expect it to end in a lawsuit. You can see other opinions at No Mutants Allowed.
