Kotaku Writes; You've gotten a look at the trailer already; here's another batch of screens to help you decide if the trip down memory lane's worth 800 Microsoft Points.
Fallout is turning 25 years old today, and Gameover celebrates the classic series with this retrospective that reflects on how the series started, where it has been, and where it might be heading.
Fallout 1 is close to my heart, not only because I experienced it close to its release, but for the weird, still serious tone it had. I was immersed in the world and the first post-apocalyptic games I really liked. Still, can't and won't recommend it to anyone today. Too clunky and technically outdated. F1 should get a Wasteland 2/3 like remake.
I loved the themes and writing in Fallout: New Vegas, the execution of them though was underwhelming to me, mostly because of the limitation they had to work with both time and hardware related. This game also screams for a proper remake.
Fallout 4 was disappointing to me at first, especially how the factions are handled, too many generic MMO like missions and the whole third act which should have been changed/expanded. But still it's my most played Fallout after they added Survival Mode to it, the gameplay and the world is becoming much more intense. Garbage collecting and weapon upgrades make a difference, especially in the first 30 levels. Settlements also become a real save heaven, so after bigger missions/explorations I like to wind down with improving my nearby settlement.
So as of today, Fallout 1/New Vegas and Fallout 4 are my favorites in the franchise.
Auto Defense, a real castle battle strategy game by Gameloft, is globally available to download and play on Android and iOS devices.
Original Fallout creator Studio Interplay's fake relaunch was quickly called out over Twitter, with the account then being shut down.
What would be the point?
All the creative talent moved onto other studios.
It would be Interplay in name alone.
