interesting that i ran across this after our discussion last night
What is Project V13?
Project V13 is the codename for an unannounced post-apocalyptic Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game being developed at Interplay by Jason Anderson and Chris Taylor, two of the creators of Fallout.
an evil gun slinging V. I cant wait.
im not sure what the probability is but on their forums at
http://www.interplay.com/
There is discussion of the deal.

I never played Fallout 1 or 2, and scarcely any of 3, but I rather look forward to this MMO. I'm a little confused as to why it isn't being developed by Bethseda. Actually I just vaguely recalled something about them saying they want to focus on single-player content exclusively. I guess that means they don't want to do an MMO themselves.
Well the brand name certainly leverages a lot of promise. Of course a million things could still go wrong with it, but it's certainly on my radar and I'll be watching for updates on the development of this game. It could be a while yet!
