Last time I read about it, Interplay has been going down since Titus and Herve Caen took control of it. Their shares are worth almost 0 now. Employees are already being told to pack their stuff and leave.
All the important people at Interplay have already left. Brian Fargo, Feargus Urquhart, J.D.Sawyer ...
IIRC, this all started when they decided to increase console game production and reduce PC game production. Infogrames (now Atari) have announced they'll do the same, so I do not foresee a big future for them either.
Unfortunately I am imagining a future in which the only games publishers will be Sierra, Microsoft and Electronic Arts. :/
