Todd Howard's comments at QuakeCon last week -- at least, how we once understood them -- ruffled some feathers. I passed on some reporting done by Big Download this morning, who said Howard remarked that The Elder Scrolls V was not currently in development at Bethesda. Those comments were taken by some to mean Bethesda had moved on from Elder Scrolls. Bethesda's head of marketing Pete Hines has clarified on the Bethesda Blog that this isn't the case.
"Both Todd and I have said repeatedly that, of course, we’re going to do another Elder Scrolls game," explained Hines. "The last one was enormously popular. So was the one before that. You get the idea. So do we."
"Todd and Bethesda Game Studios are hard at work on their next big game, and we’re not ready to discuss it," he continued. "As always, we prefer to have something amazing to show when we talk about it. We aren’t going to confirm or deny or comment on speculation, nor are we going to give hints about anything. If you know us by now, you know we don’t really do that."
Hines comments seem to suggest the next project from Bethesda's main team is not the once widely speculated The Elder Scrolls V. But Hines comments should be reassuring to fans of the franchise: another game is coming, even if it isn't anytime soon.

This sounds more like it ( they never will comment on any thing untill they have a boat load of stuff to show)
I do wonder what happend to the whole "we plan to have the next TES game out on this genaration of systems" this comment came out shortly after Oblivion and i dont see the current genaration lasting more then 3 years ( pc's by then will make the 360/PS3 look like DINOSOURS)

Awesome! Now I feel better, I was too bummed out to comment on the earlier story after recently playing another 100+ hours on Oblivian. This is wonderful news and I can't wait!
Off Topic:
1) When I sign in to comment, I get invaild username password the first time I try to login. Then after typing my password again I get logged in.
2) Every now again lately when I click on a headline link, Internet Explorer closes to protect my computer. This has only happened over the past week or so.
3) When I post a comment, I have to first logout, then wait a few minutes before my comment is posted. I am patient so I have, so far, avoided double, triple, quad posting.
