Product Description:
A Post Nuclear Role Playing Collection! Combined into one collection are two post nuclear role playing titles sure to keep you on the edge of your chair. Fallout is a classic old school role-playing experience with all new depth and complexity. Fallout 2 is the sequel to the critically acclaimed game that took RPG'ing out of the dungeons and into a dynamic, apocalyotic retro-future.
Customer Reviews:
 War.War has changed., 2008-09-11
A long time ago, RPG's took place in Past-lands and involved epic swordfights and the slaying of Giant Rats, Spiders, Minotaurs, and just about every other Mythological creature from Alabi-jam.
That isnt the case with Fallout.
Fallout takes a Stark turn at the typical hack and slash Swordfighting RPGs, and goes in an entirely new direction.
The story is as followed: Life Sucks. America has Annexed Canada, Nuclear Catastrophe has left the world barren and destroyed, and to make matters worse, your dropped right into the middle of it. Deserts abound.
Now like I said, this isnt a Hack and Slash RPG. I was suprised to find I liked this combat BETTER then Hack and Slash (And just to iron out all the comments that may say: "Biased!", I am a Huge Diablo fan).
Since its entirely Turn-Based action, yes, The Combat is just a little bit slower, but you are required to think and plan your moves carefully.
Now upon starting Fallout, you are gifted upon 3 Pre-set characters: "Charismatic but not very strong, strong but not very smart, and a Female who I believe is a bit of both.) While you are allowed to cut corners and choose a pre-set character, the real fun/complexity comes from making one yourself. You are able to choose your name, age, and stats ranging from Agility, to Strength, to Intelligence. You are also able to tag 2 special Traits to give you an advantage. A word of caution, pick VERY Carefully, one mis-calculation, and it could be the meaning of life or death..
Now Then, The atmosphere in Fallout is grade A, Top-Notch quality. Upon leaving your Vault (Underground Fallout Shelter) where you have everything needed to survive, you are suddenly tasked with trying to survive. The game is designed to give you a constant feeling of uncertainty once you have left the comfort of your Vault. It always makes you think: "What if?" or "But now what..?".
So definitely get this package if your mildly interested in RPGs, or just love a massive game with seemingly endless amounts of Replay Value.
NOTE (This is entirely up to you): I DONT reccomend getting the complete Fallout pack with All 3 Games (1,2,Tactics). Tactics is just not that worth it, as it is easily the weakest of the series.
