Ah,
here it is. Can't see any talk of it being a prequel but I'm not sure. In any case, as much as we know, Atari still doesn't have a developer.

Actually, no. The initial reaction was quite negative. That's due to the fact that Interplay, the publishing company who had the rights for the Fallout series, put it up in an auction. In the auction, Troika Games, the company leaded by people who created Fallout 1 and thus created the theme and the feel for the series, wished to buy it but Bethesda had more money so they got the series. Basically, Troika Games saw their own lisence being sold off to another.
"Morrowind with guns" was the initial negative reaction for the fans. The situation has improved however, now that Bethesda's developers themselves went to nma-fallout.com forums to assure people that Fallout III is going to be considerably different from Morrowind and that they'll take the time and effort to make it a great game.
