Ummm...the owner of the application IS Bethesda. I didn't view the application for HL3, but was the owner Valve on the application?

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.

I'd already burned that travesty out of my memory. Bah. OHIM filings aren't hard to fake.

Yes, the owner was Valve. Registered via the Spanish IP firm Casalonga.

I know it's an RPG but I also know that Bethesda is streamlining everything so I wouldn't mind combat that more closely resembles a shooter... I'll wait and see on this one.

If so they could make the first proper open world shooter RPG.

Fallout 3 was most played game last gen in our house, this can't come soon enough. Just hope it is next gen only.

Yeah, but really no reason to fake Fallout 4. We know its coming and Bethesda already said they bought the franchise to make more than one game.

Yup. I expect TES:VI to be revealed in 2016, for a release in november of 2017.

Christ, that's in four years. :(

Oblivion released March 2006 exclusively on Xbox 360 and PC, only ~4 months after the Xbox 360 launch. No cross gen.

Fallout 4 will out ~12+ months after next generation systems are well under way, and will not be cross gen.
