Today, we bid farewell to the legendary post-apocalyptic 2D classics.

Due to circumstances beyond our control, we needed to pull the three classic Fallout games, that is Fallout, Fallout 2, and Fallout Tactics, from sale and remove them from our DRM-free catalog. These classic titles have been with us since day one, that is for over 5 years now, and they were always one of the highlights of the selection of games that we offer. There are very few titles in the history of computer role-playing games, that have had so much impact on the gaming landscape, players' expectations, and even the popular culture. The iconic setting, the memorable quotes, and unparalleled amount of fun and challenge these games provide--it's all burned in the memory of a whole generation of gamers. Probably even more than just one generation. It was an honor to have you here, Fallout. Take good care of yourself out there, try not to mistake a gecko for G.E.C.K. (not even remotely the same thing!), and remember to take your Rad-X pills!

All those who acquired Fallout, Fallout 2, or Fallout Tactics on GOG.com prior to the date of removal (that is before Tuesday, December 31st 2013, at 3:59PM GMT), will still be able to download the games' install files (as well as the bonus content) via the "My Games" section of their user accounts. Gift-codes for these three games acquired in our recent giveaway are no longer valid. However, if you own a gift-code for any or all of them that was purchased outside of the said giveaway, you'll still be able to redeem it in the foreseeable future.

We sincerely apologize for all the inconvenience this situation may have caused you. We invite you to browse through 671 other fantastic titles offered in our DRM-free catalog of the best games in history, and we wish you a Happy New Year of gaming!

synfresh: This has nothing to do with DRM, at least as far as the Fallout's are concerned. I think it has more to do with pricing. Beth wants control over that and it's something they can't control as much on here.
It has everything to do with DRM. Zenimax (Bethesda's parent company) wants to retroactively add DRM on all their games. Even games like Doom where you need a Steam account to download it, even if you have bought it in a place like Gamersgate. What's also telling about Fallout is that the games were not only removed from GOG.com, but also from Desura and Dotemu, sites that did have regional pricing.

Besides, if Zenimax wanted to raise the price on those games here, nothing could really stop them as Interplay did the very same thing here before.

Ah, the joys and security of digital media.

I wonder if they're planning on restraining their titles so they can pump them out in a little physical bundle when they pump up the Fallout 4 hype, eventually? Otherwise, it doesn't make sense since these titles have been on GOG and Steam forever.

Hope GoG gets these back, though. These are kind of the foundational blocks of titles that need to be a part of any historical archive of great games for people to still buy and play.
I'm sorry to hear this GOG. Fortunately, I bought all 3 Fallouts prior to the removal date. This is a good time for me to add that GOG is by far my favorite game site. Thank you.

So long old video game friends. Glad I picked them back up here!
There's always the chance Bethesda (Zenimax - whatever) makes them free anyways tomorrow or the next day anyways, just like they did with TES 1 & 2.

Thunderstone: DAMNIT!! I was going to use those codes for a giveaway and prizes for my guild, a little warning would have been nice on those codes becoming invalid.
There was warning by TET but I it was only in Fallout sub-forum.
There goes my Tuesday release. You guys should let community know who is responsible for this, so we can let those guys know what a fuckers they are

What exactly are those circumstances? Bethesda being bought by Disney or just going DRM crazy on their own?
Also vote to bring Zenimax's cataloge on GOG.com: http://www.gog.com/wishlist/site/strike_a_deal_w_zenimax_media_inc

So long Fallout and thanks Bethesda.

If I want to play any of your future games I don't already own I'll wait for them to hit the 360 used discount bin or just skip over them.
