Fallout3的开发商Bethesda以575万美元买下了Fallout系列游戏的版权。

"New filings with the SEC show that Oblivion and current Fallout 3 developer Bethesda Softworks has officially purchased the Fallout series IP from current holders Interplay for $5.75 million, with Interplay now acting as licensee for its own planned Fallout MMO.

According to the filing, first spotted by Fallout fansite No Mutants Allowed, the purchase of the Fallout license and accompanying IP was settled on April 9th of this year, with final payment installments expected to be delivered by the third quarter of this year.

Prior to the purchase, Bethesda was licensing the Fallout IP from Interplay as it has continued to develop Fallout 3, its own sequel to the cult-classic post-apocalyptic RPG series first developed by Black Isle Studios in 1997. In a recent interview Bethesda's Pete Hines recently told Gamasutra that the team was “a fairly good ways into the process”, and noted that “Fallout is not a quick two year process, and we are already several years into the project”.

In an interesting twist, as part of the agreement Interplay now acts as a licensee of the IP as it continues to ramp up production on its own Fallout-themed massively multiplayer game, first announced in 2004 alongside Bethesda's sequel, and shown via internal documents as recently as December to have a projected $75 million dollar budget and launch date of 2010.

In a special clause of the purchase agreement, Interplay agrees that "full-scale development of its FALLOUT MMOG will commence within 24 months of the Effective Date of this Agreement" and that "Interplay will have secured financing for the FALLOUT MMOG in an amount no less than $30 million" within that time frame or forfeit its license rights for the MMO.

Similarly, "Interplay must, in addition, Commercially Launch... the FALLOUT MMOG within four years of the MMOG Development Commencement Date, or again, "Interplay will immediately lose and permanently forfeit its license rights under this Agreement." When and if the Fallout MMO launches, Interplay has agreed to pay Bethesda 12 percent of the game's sales and subscription fees for the use of the Fallout IP."

很好

总算逃脱Interplay这个僵尸的魔掌了

另外还是要怨念下:

Tim Cain 大叔回来吧,我们爱你!

Fallout3其实在Bethesda手里做了有一段时间了。

Bethesda already "several years" into Fallout 3

Fallout 3开发权到Bethesda手里是几年前的事情
Torika的Tim Cain想拿过来做,结果Interplay嫌贫爱富,给了Bethesda~~~F U C K……

这次是彻底买断系列版权

Interplay前两年传出过找人做“Fallout Online”的愚蠢念头
LZ新闻末尾也写了,Interplay虽然还是保留了Fallout MMO的开发权,但如果在未来几年
限期内不启动这个项目就算弃权

但愿Interplay别得逞。以现在生不如死的样子,不知道会把Fallout MMO弄成什么丢人现眼的样呢

这下算尘埃落定了

Bethesda太一本正经,还是由lionhead来比较好一点
作者: ea3dfx    时间: 2007-4-13 08:40

慢慢做,不要急,反正等了这么多年不差这点时间了。

……Bethesda好歹是从上世纪90年代开始做RPG的

狮子头……Peter大神的风格和Fallout格格不入,根本不搭调

怨念再临:

Tim Cain 大叔最高!

Interplay还没死?这僵尸比3DO还有能耐...
作者: xbgbmpsp    时间: 2007-4-13 09:39

让狮子头做一个核弹也疯狂吧~~~作为Fallout的外传~~~
作者: xbgbmpsp    时间: 2007-4-13 09:40

其实Fallout的背景是很适合狮子头玩黑色幽默的~~~

Tim Cain 钻牛角尖,太小众了
作者: RestlessDream    时间: 2007-4-13 11:53

不能给狮子头

Peter好好养狗去

Fallout 3其实最应该给黑曜石

反正是续作专业户
作者: 深夜入夢    时间: 2007-4-13 12:06

黑曜石么- -

KotOR2,最后也太简单了,系群体眩晕 --> 大闪电狂闪,要不就是光剑纷飞啥都灭了
作者: RestlessDream    时间: 2007-4-13 12:11

乌奎哈特领一帮黑岛遗老,还怕Fo续作做不好……

KOTOR2口味很纯正。平衡性本来就是D20-SW的技能设计问题

这种重动作的依我看都该学Oblivion引入Level Scaling

作为辐射的爱好者支持者来说
没有哪家厂会比Troika更适合制作辐射3。

但是除此以外
Bethesda起码经验丰富,而且没有出骗钱滥作的污点。
狮子头不适合
而黑耀石我则是觉得靠不住

所以,目前的结果还是可以接受的吧

Bethesda会把FO3做成FPS的。。。
作者: 被遗忘之神    时间: 2007-4-13 23:13

最最好是 黑岛复活或者在另一个平行世界回来做……

SEGA拿到异形电影的游戏授权,obsidian在做基于异形电影的RPG外包项目。

观望,不知道能做成什么样...

看来神作3代指日可待了 质量可以不用担心了
作者: ryuetsuya    时间: 2007-4-14 09:31
