But why would someone be allowed to register a name with the trademark Fallout in it?

I hope we're gonna meet an immortal Ray Kurzweil there, founder and patriarch of the Singularity Church.

That seem like a retarded title to anyone else?
That's how you know it's the real thing.
Beat me to it. Although, keep in mind anyone can file these things. Remember six months ago some derpy made a Fallout: Shadows of Boston IMBD entry. This is probably just more fan wanking.

Hines is big on deception.

Perhaps he's putting out derpy imdb entries to cause doubt and confusion about the necessary public filings they have to do.

If that trademark is legit, I doubt it's the name of the actual game, which will probably be just Fallout 4. It might be the name of some kind of tie-in property.

Noticed post by Infinitron from thread list view.
Clicked on thread hoping for actual news.
Just his reply to bland hype about domain name registration.
Maximum disappoint.


So here's a free-meter Haiku-styled short poem instead:

Broken hills dusted in sand
I lie by a long dead fire
Radiation cooking my chicken.

I wanted to see what Bethesda's forum is saing about this, first thing I saw:
Something to note. Discussions of Child Killing is not allowed on these boards. Don't even bring it up in this thread. It won't happen in any future game from Bethesda, so there is no reason to even discuss it. If you post about this subject, you may be Warned and or Banned from the boards for doing so.
:roll:
So it will be crap anyway, better got disappointed now than when you spend the money on it.

Were quest givers in F3 killable, or it was Skyrim's level of game for primary school kids?

Reckon we could show a screenshot of this on 4chan get /v/, or even /b/ to troll the boards asking about child killing?

Of course they will be killable, just needs a mod to enable it.

Which it likely won't be, since anyone can submit those applications - they did the same thing with last year's hoax.

Non killable everybody who is not cis white straight male.

Last year's hoax was pretty cool, ciphers on this fake website were more entertaining and exciting than entire F3.

Why would anyone consider Shadows of Boston to be real? It's quite clear Bethestard would want the number "4" in their Fallout game.
Anyway, anyone remember this horseshit? Was this Kotaku trying to get more ad revenue or was it an actual leak? The absolutely horrible writing points to it being real, but at the same time I imagine that this is something a Kotaku journalist would write and admire himself for.

Well I don't read German but was it actually registered or just filed? People do this all the time with World of Warcraft. File bogus expansion titles then link it as proof of the new expac's title.

Well, it's possible that one day they'll just accept fact that they cannot make good Fallout game and give somebody else chance to make another spinoff.

It's simple. It's the new Fallout spinoff from Obsidian. While Bethesda makes the numbered ones, Obsidian makes Fallout: *insert your city name here*.
