I don't agree. The Fallout games have a huge reputation, but none of them made much money. Even Fallout 2, the biggest seller, didn't break into Civ or Sims territory, or even come close.

I think the Bethesda gang want to make F3 for the same reason any of us would -- they love the old games. But they're going to do it their way, and build it using their tools. I'm trying to think of it as the biggest fan-made homage ever created. It won't really be Fallout, but that's okay. The team that made the first two games is long gone, scattered to the four corners of the earth.

Even a KOTOR-type Fallout wouldn't "really" be Fallout. The king is dead, long live the king!
