Fallout creator Tim Cain has for the first time revealed his role in the cancelation of Interplay’s Van Buren, the codename for what was intended to be the original Fallout 3.
Summary: he told management that it’d take 18 months to do a good game, couldn’t do it in less then 12, and Interplay was, at that point, down to 6 months of cash.

Chris Taylor talking about Fallout Tactics illustrates the clusterfuck Interplay was on Fallout years before that.
Better not making a game than making a bad one, wish bethesda sounded like that
