Three Smash Hits in One Radioactive Pack! 3 Action Packed Fallout Games in 1! FALLOUT: It's the year 2161, 84 years after a two-hour-long war that destroyed most of civilization. Mankind soldiers on, living out a hardscrabble life on the surface or holing up in great Vaults built inside caves. You're a member of Vault 13 somewhere in Southern California, and the Vault Overseer's got a job for you: find a replacement water purification chip within 150 days, or your home is doomed. FALLOUT 2: It's been 80 long years since your ancestor the "Vault Dweller" trol across the wastelands. As you now search for the Garden of Eden Creation Kit to save your primititve village, touch choices and even tougher consequences await you. FALLOUT TACTICS: A departure from the character -heavy RPG of traditional Fallout games, Interplay's Fallout Tactics is instead a squad-based tactical RPG, utilizing both turn-bases and real-time mechanics. As part of a split faction of the Brotherhood of Steal, the player controls a team that attempts to grow and expand across Fallout's barren wastelands by recruiting outsiders to embark on combat-heavy missions. Though vastly different from other Fallout titles, Fallout Tactics is a solid and enjoyable title that fans of the series would do well to explore.Product Details

A blast from the past
Never haven played any
Fallout games before, I didn't know what to expect. I knew they were
most likely great games after hearing PC Gamer magazine go on about the
greatness of the original Fallout games all the time. Even then, I
underestimated the games. I started playing Fallout and found that it
was fun, addicting, and really immersive. The world's are beautifully
crafted and will make you wish YOU lived in the post-apocalyptic world.
The story's are great in all the games. Each character has their own
original personality. And being made ten years ago, they are perfect
netbook games. You don't need me to tell you these games are great, just
buy it. You won't be dissappointed.
P.S. Despite what other
people might tell you, there is no DRM. No disc is required to play
(also a plus for netbooks) and there are unlimited installs. But hey,
it's only twenty dollars. Why pirate it?
Fun.
The purpose of games....remember?
If you don't mind the
limitations of a 1980s program, this is a great package. If you haven't
ever played the fallout series, I envy you. You may be in for a pleasant
surprise. A lot of love when into these games. They are not just "good
for the time", they are just plain good.
The original fallout was
a winner. Fallout 2 was even better in many ways. Both of them were
very absorbing with a lot of replay-ability. Both quickly developed a
fanatical following. Fallout Tactics is not really the same kind of
game. I believe it was a result of lots of fans screaming for a sequel.
It's basically a 3rd person shoot-em-up and not in the same league with
the first two, but still lots of fun.
In fallout and fallout 2,
Your actions determine how others react to you. You can play the game as
a shooter, or a talker, or evil, or nice. Each type of play is not only
possible, they are all fun.
Both Games have a fairly straightforward
story line with a few cool twists and a LOT of other stuff to do. You
can mess around in the wasteland for a LONG time and never see it all.
You can play a different type of character and have a completely
different gaming experience.
The NPCs (especially in fallout2)
are very memorable. Sulik, one of your companions, is staunch,
dependable and has a hilarious way of expressing himself. Once the game
ends, you find yourself missing him. Marvin (a teenage boy who wears red
sneakers) is also pretty funny. Try leaving him behind and he panics
and offers you bribes not to ditch him...(try playing a female and watch
Marvin's hormones kick in...funny stuff.) The NPCs also interact to
some extent with each other. All of this is achieved without
overpowering the game's story line. It's there if you like it, or you
can i
gnore it. In fact, you can totally ignore the story line and just
go around throwing dynamite into outhouses. (try it)
A word of
warning. The GUI takes some getting used to. Once you master it, the GUI
is very playable and ergonomic, but it's probably not like any game you
have ever played. If you are tired of all the first person 3D shooters
with lame stories, and are starting to get bored with spectacular
graphics... You might be ready to play a lower-tech game with some
substance. Give fallout a try.
Good
games, Tactics Problems
Good set of games for a good
price. Everything works, except Tactics, on my XP Pro system. I can get
the installer to work, but when I go to play it tells me to Insert a
Fallout Brotherhood of Tactics CD. The CD is in, I've uninstalling and
reinstalling many times. The patch you get with the game didn't seem to
fix the problem... other than that, Fallout 1 and 2 work perfectly.
