Earlier this week a Fallout fan site reported via an anonymous Interplay source that Bethesda Softworks has lost a preliminary injunction in their Fallout trademark dispute. Now a post from Interplay's own lawyer on their message board states otherwise, saying, "The Court has not ruled on Bethesda's Motion for Prelminary Injunction." He added that the court ruling is weeks away and that "Interplay will issue an official statement if there is a material development that needs to be addressed." Meanwhile a new concept piece from "Project V13" has popped up on the message boards. The MMO, which is most likely Interplay's Fallout massively multiplayer game, is still very early in development.

Interplay, why not use the Wasteland franchise since you already undeniably own THAT, go with a Baldur's Gate/Icewind Dale engine (Or even a NWN clone), thereby saving a ton of money (by not having to throw gobs of it at eyecandy) and instead hire GREAT WRITERS to craft something wonderful.
Wasteland isn't the legend it is because of high end graphics...it's the story http://justmusicarchive.com
You want to stand out?
Build us a game that doesn't rely on machine choking visuals as a crutch, and instead build us a GAME TO REMEMBER.
You CAN do it, it WOULD sell, and your development expenses and time would be substantially reduced.
