rampancy: I'm so confused. Why on earth is some obscure Christian music site airing rumors (and fake rumors no less) about Fallout 4? And WTF is up with the Gospel singer talking about Thor?

Emob78: I don't know, seems to me that Fallout 3 was pretty unpopular with hardcore players, especially RPGers. Wouldn't this news come as being rather good news for hardcore gamers?

Personally, I've enjoyed all the Fallout games, and didn't mind a switch for Fallout 3. I don't know anything about Battle Studios, but come on... we all know that a Bethesda Fallout 4 would either be another copy/paste shooter or a watered down Pay-to-Win MMO. I don't think anyone was looking forward to those choices.

Besides, from the looks of it we have our own Fallout 4 to look forward to. It's called Wasteland 2.

the_atm: I don't buy it. Bethesda owns the rights to Nuka-Cola and such with no paper trail of those being transfer.

knowing Bethesda as well, they wouldn't set a release date for a game, or an announcement window, unless they were ready for it, they don't' usually rush things.

No major news network (i.e IGN, Gamespot or even PC Gamer) has picked up on this from what I know

After the apperent failure of ESO I doubt they'd try again for an MMO

Who in their right minds would create MMO competition between their own two series?

I want to see Fallout 4 but none of what was mentioned in OP makes any amount of sense in my mind.
