 Still great after all these years September 8, 2010
A. Shutterly (Virginia, USA)
I first learned about Fallout when my older brother's friend brought it over one day. I was about 10 years old, and this game was a 10-year-old boy's wet dream. It was by far the most violent game I had ever played (and I grew up on Mortal Kombat, which was pretty violent for its time), and that immediately appealed to me. When I played it the first time, I had no clue what I was doing, but I still had tons of fun. My brother gave me help every now and then, but I largely did what I wanted how I wanted.
And that's what makes this game so great. You can do whatever you want. Raiders kidnapped a girl? You could be smart and talk them into giving her up. You could be evil and sell an ally into slavery in place of her. Or you can do what I did and kill the entire camp because they had cool-looking guns you wanted. You can do it however you want. Hell, you can even play the game as a character with no intelligence, so all he can say is "duhh" and "durr"! The designers at Black Isle Studios put so much thought into this game.
The writing is wonderfully hilarious (it's Black Isle Studios! What'd you expect??), but the story is well-developed too. It uses old sci-fi "science" from waaaay back that people used to talk about (nuclear radiation, mutants, plasma pistols, cyborgs, that sort of thing), and does it really well. The game captures that retro feeling so well, but makes it all feel fresh and new at the same time. The wasteland that is created from a nuclear war both feels and looks real. The "scientific" methods used to explain how the mutations and viruses and everything spread look really legitimate (I'm sure biologists would take major umbrage at the pseudo-science, but it's still done very well!), so you feel like the writers were scientists themselves.
The game is just so great and fun, and it's another game that I find myself reinstalling annually to beat it a different way. All three of these games are great (Fallout Tactics sacrificed a good story to make a really great combat system, though, and is not really in the same canon as Fallout 1 + 2). I'll always remember Fallout as one of the first PC games I ever played, and one of the reasons why I switched from consoles.
Don't work too well with my system, but great games nonetheless August 23, 2010
A. Steidl (Florida)
Great games, couldn't wait to finally try them out after playing Fallout 3 for a couple years now. Only thing bad for me is, on my machine, they don't work too well. I'm running Windows 7, on a 1.86GHz Intel Core2Duo, with 2GB RAM, nvidia 8600GTS, and a 22" LCD TV for a monitor @ 1920x1080p. Fallout 1 ran fine, but with my resolution and screen size, was hard to see details in-game. Fallout 2 wouldn't run, and Fallout Tactics ran fine, but same problem as Fallout 1. I would recommend this trilogy to anyone with a lower-end system, running XP, but probably not for someone running Vista or 7. The games are quite enjoyable, however, so, at this price, it's worth buying even if you are unsure if it will run on your machine.
this is fallout at least 1-2 are tactics is.. July 14, 2010
Josh Jeffords
well a bonus a mediocre tactical game that is worth about $5.
the games are not designed to work on modern systems and are in original condition other than being on a dvd also dos version of 1 seems mia.
these games are worth $20 each and are on one disc awesome.
there are graphics problems on moder pcs not sure why but games work fine.
fallout is probably the best non fantasy rpg ever.
fallout 2 was a good funnier sequel with better gameplay but some major tech and story holes.
these games have nothing to do with the modern fallout 3 or vegas the later games are bad knock offs.
all in all great product execution as far as graphics needs work.
 Great games doesent work in windows 7 without mods July 9, 2010
B. Fulcher (nc, usa)
This is a great game collection however if you are on winodows 7 or vista you will spend quite a bit of time moding the game files to get this to display correctly with out the rainbow effect. I recomend this for windows 2000, and xp users. They shoudl have fixed this issue with a patch when releaseing this collection.
If you are buying these thinking they are the same style gameplay as fallout 3 they are not completly different gameplay.
a great deal June 26, 2010
B. German (United States)
three games for around twenty dollars is an excellent deal. plus it plays without a disc once installed so it's perfect for loaning to freinds who want to play as well
