Ooh, those are good games.  I really like Fallout 1.  Most like 2, but 1 is my favorite.

Oh it only the mission design in Tactics was better. The graphics are nice, the engine is nice, but the gear scaling is so way off! You finally get the iconic Gauss Rifle towards the end and it does nothing against the enemies you're fighting.

Best gun in Fallout Tactics was M2 heavy machine gun (but with its ammo its was very heavy).

I bought all those game loooong time ago, when they became available on Steam.

Yeah, if I remember right at the end your best bet was always good ole bullets. Forget energy weapons or gauss, because the enemies were highly resistant to everything, and bullets were more plentiful and cheaper.

It's been 80 long years since your ancestor, the "Vault Dweller" trod across the wastelands. As you now search for the Garden of Eden Creation Kit to save your primitive village, touch choices and even tougher consequences await you.

 

Might wanna check those descriptions for errors.. touch choices lol

Why is it 9.99 on Impulse per game when it's 5.99 each on GOG?  Is it Interplay defining the prices because it's really not allowing Impulse to be competitive.

They're available on gog.com if you really want them.

Too little too late, Impulse. Again. And Bethesda owns Fallout now, not Interplay.

 

You can buy the 3 pack at Target for $15 around here. It even has the same graphic art as posted above. Paying more for a digital release? Really Stardock? Really? Also, no DRM on the disc, not even a disc check.

 

I've been loosing faith in Impulse and Stardock continually since the release of Demigod.

Interplay still has the rights to sell their Fallout games, for the time being.

I thought Bethesda bought the entire Fallout IP, which is why they have a lawsuit with Interplay at the moment (Since they licensed them to make a MMO but everything has since fallen apart.)

 

In any case, it doesn't really matter as whomever is in charge of the price points obviously is just banking on people not caring about wasting their money through Impulse.

Well if I buy a game digitally it most likely is going to be from Impulse.  I'm not going to buy it somewhere else just to save a couple bucks.  Besides, most likely these games will be in a bundle soon at 50% off or something like that.  I'll wait and pick them up then.  It's not like I'm itching to play these and can't wait.  It's like the Baulder's Gate games, I do want to get them here digitally but I'll wait for a bundle sale to do it.  Not like I can't go dig out my old floppies and play if I really have to.
