Fallout & other classics in CD Projekt's retro-PC store

13
To gamers too young to have played the 1996 original, the excitement--and controversy---surrounding Fallout 3 might be a bit baffling. Now those wondering what all the fuss is about have a chance to play the first Fallout without having to track down a battered copy on eBay.

Now no one can say they couldn't try Fallout. Awesome return of the classic.

Yep ... great games.

I have played fallout 1 and 2, but still have not played fallout tactics. Is it worth it ?

Well, it's not a Fallout game. It's like those tactical military PC games but with Fallout's traditional character screen in which most skills don't do much in the combat oriented world of Tactics.

A decent spin-off with some neat ideas and of course some special encounters though the you're not that free in World Map and there are no open / free cities. It's more like Diablo. Also, it's not made by Black Isle. The developers are rather unknown but they did a pretty good job for spin-off. Also, it might be good for preparing for Fallotu 3 which is more like Fallout FPS: A Post Nuclear First Person Shooter ;)

1.4 - Well actually,
good find MK, while I see no reason to buy the first two again, I might actually, getting fallout 1 and 2 to work on my new PC was a b*tch, the screen was entirely black and would refresh only when the cursor was waved across the screen franctically, it took me weeks to find the proper patches and fixes, but I know this sounds stupid, but I've had the original games since their respective releases, and it wouldn't feel right if I left those, wow 10 year?, discs in the dust, maybe I'll make a display case for them.

Here in Poland i can buy F1/F2 in almost every Empic Store. GOG is just a online store

BTW fallout saga is one of the best games ever . Still i play a lot (F1, F2)

I'm worried about F3 :/ I don't want to see another boring elder scrolls game...

3 - cool, I guess
it's great for people trying to find the game, but as for me I've had 1 and 2 since they were released and recently bought tactics which I enjoyed alot, my expectations were low, but it was pretty well done, I mean obviously not fallout but still very good if you like turn based combat.

4 - Skeptical
I'm only 17 but still a huge fan of the fallout series, tactics was a good game in itself but not a patch on the original 2. Personally i'm a bit cautious about fallout 3 as it is constantly being compared to Oblivion, if fallout 3 is going to be a 'reskinned' version of oblivion with a slightly different battle system (Which it seems as if it probably will be) then i will be sorely dissapointed.

p.s. Check out the fallout 1+2 modding community, it's small but there's some pretty nifty things out there (www.nma-fallout.com is a good place to start)

4.1 - yep
I think Fallout 3 will be diffrent than Oblivion, but still not fallout good, I hated Oblivion, hated it, I've been increasingly looking forward to Fallout 3 recently, I don't know why, I'm just excited over because my fanboy anger ended a few days ago, it was stirred up by Diablo III, but now I am eagerly awaiting its arrival.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Heh, I may be worried but I still plan on picking up the special edition at midnight when its released *sigh* such is my blind faith towards the fallout series...

5 - I actually
tried to find a couple of these games a while back. I did find one of them, but at a price I didn't want to play. This will give me the chance to play what I've missed.
