Goodbyes are not forever (and war never changes).

It's not the first time we give this advice, but remember to take your Rad-X pills, try not to mistake a G.E.C.K for a gecko (not even remotely the same thing!), and take good care of yourself out there in the wasteland: <span class="bold">Fallout</span>, the premiere post nuclear role playing game franchise, is back.
The Fallout games have been with us on day one, and they played an inseparable part in defining the early GOG.com catalog. When they got swept away by radioactive winds, a gaping hole the size of California was left behind that we haven't quite been able to fill... until now!

Once again, you can pick up all three RPG classics at <span class="bold">66% off in a single post-apo bundle that includes:
--Fallout
--Fallout 2
--Fallout Tactics





We're welcoming Bethesda Softworks to GOG.com with more bundles, and tons of new classic releases - all DRM-free of course - and don't forget that two The Elder Scrolls classics (The Elder Scrolls: Arena and The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall) will drop like a bomb straight into your library, completely FREE with any Bethesda purchase. The bundle promos end on Wednesday, September 2, 12:59 PM GMT.





Stream watch:
Twitch.tv/GOGcom is worth your attention - we'll be showing off all three returning Fallout games over the next few days, along with many other Bethesda releases!

THURSDAY, August 27th:
4pm GMT / 6pm CEST / 12pm EDT / 9am PDT: Fallout Tactics with MegapiemanPHD

SATURDAY, August 29th:
6pm GMT / 8pm CEST / 2pm EDT / 11am PDT: Fallout 2 with Outstar
8pm GMT / 10pm CESt / 4pm EDT / 1pm PDT: Fallout 1 with Vlad of The Weekend Slice

DukeNukemForever: I would highly recommend that gog would add some more informations about the differences between Bethesdas re-releases and Interplay classic releases. So far I know the re-release has some mods added, like the Baldur's Gate remakes. Multilingual isn't also new, as the Interplay releases on Dotemu wee also multilingual. That's not a Bethesda excluse, only gogs late move to multilingual support. Also multiplatform support seems to be gone, but that's also no surprise, as GOG did back them for Interplay (first dosbox, later wine versions).

So yeah, some officieal explanations what's new would be very nice.

Edit: Another thing, thread title is talking about Fallout classics while the versions are not the new labelled classics from Interplay. So yeah, kind of confusing. So, are these versions the Bethesdas updated and modded versions like on steam, or are these just the old Interplay versions just new branded?

Paczyk: The only difference between the Classic editions and the Fallouts from Bethesda is that the Classic versions (as we've decided to call them) have more bonus goodies and support one additional platform - OS X. Other than that, those two editions should be identical. The main reason for this difference is that the approval process for the remaining bonus goodies takes a lot of time and we didn't want to hold up the release just because of that. ;)
To answer another question - will we ever have them included in the Bethesda versions? We will do everything in our power, of course, but I can't say for certain that we will.
Thanks for the Clarification :D

damien: do you mind clarifying if this time they are the uncensored version?

JMich: They are not. The installers for both classics and "new" fallouts are the same.
cheers! does anyone know some kind of a patch compatible with gog installers which remove the censorship?
Posted August 27, 2015
What has been censored? Thanks in advance.

The one always used? The fallout forum should have the link, but I can go look for it if needed.

From what I recall, you can't kill the children, or something like that. There should be a patch to fix that somewhere.

There are no children, much less able to kill them. Or they're invisible so you can still be pickpocketed but not get your money back.

thanks! I hope it works with the new installer also

After reading through the post my mind is now clear. I'm free of fear, I don't have that completionist urge to buy them again. I do have a sudden urge to grab a patch as in my head I hear the words "think of the children"

Thanks for the answer vulchor, I hope that such will be the deal.

Regarding your second comment, I was the exact opposite of you, I only had Fallout: Tactics, and then the games disappeared from GOG before I could buy the other two. Unfortunatelly, they did not appear in my Library because I had forgotten that I'd purchased them. No magic for me :)
Thanks again!

Awesome. So I already have a superior version. Please merge the 2 versions when the new version has everything that the interplay version does, so we don't miss future updates.

LOL. I even played that one when I was on a tear of action RPGs (they were good fun on the console, playing with a friend - heck I even had a girlfriend or two at the time that enjoyed them!). And that one was pretty awful. Just boring and repetitive and didn't even try to hide it. Plus new enemies were just old enemies with huge HPs. I know it's probably much hated here for the unfortunate branding choice but the Dark Alliance games were very good.

We may as well have 3 and New Vegas for a more complete Fallout collection on gOg. What the heck, I may even buy one of them if they come here.
