Fallout 3 funds Earthworm Jim, MDK revival

Interplay is looking into reviving its portfolio of deceased game franchises, including Earthworm Jim and MDK.


According to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the company intends to bring its in-house development studio back from the dead using the money it gained from the sale of Fallout to Bethesda.


In a bizarre way then, Fallout 3 could end up causing a flood of rubbish Earthworm Jim cash-ins in the near future.


Interplay could also develop its long-shelved Baldur's Gate and Decent franchises - and it's just snapped up Test Drive from the now publisher-only Atari.


Presuming it can get some decent talent together we reckon MDK could be a great candidate for a modern day update, but more the likely we'll end up with 5/10 bargain bin fodder.
