Hello! I'll be reviewing this article as part of the ongoing GAN backlog drive. -- Vacant 0 (talk &bull; contribs) 10:19, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

Initial comments

 * It is possible that there is copyright violation in the article. Earwig's Copyvio Detector has reported 48% in similarity. Will analyse this in depth later in the review. See below.
 * There are no cleanup banners, such as those listed at WP:QF, in the article.
 * The article is stable.
 * No previous GA reviews.

General comments

 * Prose, spelling, and grammar checking.
 * No issues were found in the lede.
 * The rest of the article also looks good. I did not find any grammar errors.
 * Checking whether the article complies with MOS.
 * Add alt texts to the images in the article.
 * The lede could be shortened to just two paragraphs, per MOS:LEADLENGTH. It meets the rest of the MOS:LEDE guideline.
 * The article complies with the MOS:LAYOUT, MOS:WTW, and MOS:WAF guidelines. There are no embedded lists within the article, so I am skipping MOS:EMBED.
 * Checking refs, verifiability, and whether there is original research.
 * References section with a reflist template is present in the article.
 * No referencing issues.
 * Listed references are reliable. Good job on archiving the refs.
 * Spotchecked Ref 2, 3, 6, 8, 10, 13, 19, 23–all verify the cited content. AGF on other citations.
 * Checking potential copyvio.
 * Seems to be a false positive. It picked up the quotes that are in text.
 * Checking whether the article is broad in its coverage.
 * For a cancelled game, this is a well-researched article.
 * When was Interplay acquired by Titus Interactive?
 * The article stays on the topic.
 * Checking whether the article is presented from an NPOV standpoint.
 * The article meets the criteria and is written in encyclopedic language.
 * Checking whether the article is stable.
 * As noted in the initial comments, the article has been stable.
 * Checking images.
 * All looks to be good.

Final comments
There are only a couple of minor issues that need to be addressed. Other than that, the article is in a good shape. I'll put the review on hold for a week. Once the issues get addressed, I'll promote the article. -- Vacant 0 (talk &bull; contribs) 13:05, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi there! Thank you for taking on this review. I added alt text to the four images and provided the year when Titus acquired Interplay. Regarding the lede, I combined the second and third paragraphs and cut out the bit about Bethesda amending the lawsuit to preclude the use of any materials from the Fallout series. I wasn't sure if that part was necessary to mention in the lede. Famous Hobo (talk) 05:57, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
