Video Game Reviews of Fallout Collection (Fallout, Fallout Tactics, Fallout A Post Nuclear RPG)

Summary: 5 Stars
Fallout fans tend to measure all other cRPGs by the rather tough standards Fallout 1 and 2 laid out and have for the most part been disappointed as a result of it in recent years.
The game's weren't considered particularly pretty even for their time but the relevance of player and character choice in the games is unmatched by any modern cRPG out there. The perk system is probably one of the the first elements of a computer roleplaying game to actually get adopted by pen & paper games and is sheer genius considering the original devs had to improvise on the fly when GURPS creator Steve Jackson pulled himself and the GURPS license off of the project.
It's quite possibly the most replayable RPG series I've ever experienced owing to the vast number of different ways quests and obstacles can be resolved.
So come find out why Fallout Fans have a reputation for being so incredibly insufferable when it comes to the slightest changes, real or perceived when it comes to speculation on Bethesda's Fallout 3.
Customer Review: One of the best PC series ever.
Summary: 5 Stars
Having purchased all three of the original games when they first came out I was overjoyed to hear that they grouped them all together in one collection. Both my Fallout and Fallout 2 CD's were scratched so bad they would not load on my PC anymore and the 1st disk of my FO:T was snapped in half rendering it useless. After hearing word that the loooong awaited Fallout 3 is due out in Fall of 2008 (on PS3 and XBox 360) I had to get my hands on the original 3 again.Customer Review: Fallout Collection Set
Summary: 5 Stars
It was def. everything I was hoping it would be.
Contains all 3 Fallout games, quickly installs, and easy to play.
A great buy if you love RPGs, and don't mind less quality graphics, but better emphasis on storyline and a focus on the game play instead.
Customer Review: War. War never changes...
Summary: 5 Stars
Fallout 1 and 2 are classic role playing games that feature a post-apocolyptic setting, but one can figure that out by looking at the cover of the box. What cannot be seen at first is the subtle humor that fallout fans have come to love. These games may be over ten years old, but they still have replayability. This collection will put a smile on "Mad Max", "Escape from New York", and other post-apoc fans' faces.
Fallout 1 may have a definite end without the v1.01 patch (it eliminates the 500 day timer after completing the main quest), but it had a great balance of complexity as well as simplicity in play. The player can beat this game in under two or three hours if they knew what/where the objective was, and yet, the game can take 50+ hours if the player wanted to find every quest in their PipBoy 2000, a futuristic personal digital assistant, completed.
Fallout 2 delivers more excitement than Fallout 1 did. It improved upon the various systems of Fallout 1, continued its' dark humor, and provided a never-ending gameplay from version 1. As with Fallout 1, the game can take as little time to play as a few hours to the same amount of time, if not more, Fallout 1 allowed us.
Fallout: Tactics was a slight upset to Fallout fans, but provided an interesting tatical concept. With about 18 missions to complete, the player will find increasingly difficult missions and will attempt to get the best AAR* possible. Your successes and failures do change the outcome of the future, whether it be having a new team mate or a helpful armorsmith.
My final words will be that this collection will provide hours of entertainment for gamers who enjoy RPG's regardless of graphics and for those that have played this/these games, having them on one DVD with extra content is great.
*(In military terms, AAR stands for "After Action Review", or an assessment of what went well in a mission and what could have been improved on.)
