Buyer Beware [Posted on 2008-03-28] As to the games: It's Fallout. By this point, one shouldn't need a review of the games. They're amongst the best games of all time (Tactics excluded), and no recommendation can be high enough. They just don't make 'em like this anymore.
However! Something has to be said about the reliability of the games. First: you likely will need to crack Fallout Tactics. For whatever reason, in Vista, the game does not recognize the CD as being a game CD. Thankfully, gamecopyworld.com is still a bountiful resource for safe No-CD cracks.
Also, from what I've heard of friends' experiences with this collection, some of the bugs that Fallout and Fallout 2 experience on WinXP are serious enough to ruin the game experience. For what it's worth, Vista has had no game-breaking issues with any of the collection so far.
There are, however, odd graphical glitches (the game screen has a tendency to suddenly go black; saving when this happens clears up the issue), and certain still-unresolved gameplay bugs that amount to minor annoyance.
Greater on the annoyance scale is that the games *still* bother you to register them despite both Interplay and Black Isle no longer existing, and the publisher of this collection, GSP, seems to have their own agenda trying to push a "register and get a free game" thing. Once again, individually small issues that add to the larger annoyance factor.
Bottom Line: It's Fallout. Play it. Sure, there are some annoying technical issues, but lets be realistic. It's Fallout.
Fallout Collection [Posted on 2008-05-17] I am so very pleased to be able to play these classic games. The package was delivered quickly and arrived in great condition.
GREAT COLLECTION [Posted on 2008-05-22] YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DOWNLOAD PATCHES GO TO BONUS SECTION OF THE DISK!!!
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST RPG'S OF ALL TIME. THIS COLLECTION IS ESSENTIAL FOR RPG FANS.
BUY IT.
ENJOY.
Not bad [Posted on 2008-05-31] It's not a bad game, but I can't get into it much. Fallout 1 suffers from blackouts on XP (I've tried every fix listed online, so I'll probably have to run a virtual machine with Win 95 or something), but Fallout 2 can run on XP fine. I'm about 3 hours into it, though I don't care for it too much. I personally prefer Diablo 2, though Fallout allows much more interaction with the environment.
Check out no mutants allowed for the patches and stuff for the game.
wow i found a good game. [Posted on 2008-07-20] this game is sweet good story but the first one's story is kinda dumb here it is the world was in a war and nukes went off they made vaults to protect every one you find out that your vaults water is going to run out in 150gamedays u can make it 250 by buying water but after you get the water and kill the big bad mutans u get back just so u can get kicked out of the vault i cant tell all the story [spoilers] but all of the games are relly good.
