Obsidian's Chris Avellone indicated that Obsidian just missed a bonus for
Fallout: New Vegas, reports
Joystiq, saying this came in a tweet from a
no longer existent account, allegedly saying: "[Fallout: New Vegas] was a straight payment, no royalties, only a bonus if we got an 85+ on Metacritic, which we didn't." Sure enough, the game currently sits at 84 on
Metacritic. They also note
their report of layoffs at Obsidian, though these are still unconfirmed. Thanks nin.

| They really gotta cut that out. Or at least weed out the reviews from folks that had no desire to rate the game honestly (most of these are obvious). Bottom line, is stuff like this effects whether we will get another game |
