Didn't come as news to me, but I don't think it was official. I have no feeling toward it, it could be nice, or not. I don't care either way. If it's fun or special, I may try it. These games are almost MMO's already, anyway. What strikes me as funny is that Bethesda always kept saying that they're not interested in MMO's; they're in the business of making single-player RPGs. Well, Bethesda isn't developing this one, of course...
