Fallout's co-creator was "convinced" the cancelled OG Fallout 3 could've shipped and been "a really good game" in 18 months, but money troubles got in Interplay's way

Fallout 3.

Veteran developer Tim Cain continues his valiant effort to pull back the curtain on old-school RPG history with a new vlog detailing the cancellation of the original Fallout 3.
