    @ Gizmojunk Really? I thought it was only possible in a patched game.

    Secret ending in Fallout 2

    Is this true? I would have to say no because as far as I know there is no way to get into the toxic caves without the yellow key card you get off the dead enclave soldier in Klamath near the Vertibird. This only happens in the patched game. But this secret says an unpatched game is needed to get...

    Is The Glow worth the trouble?

    I have plenty of Rad-x and Radaway. I bought mine though. I believe I even stole some. I haven't been through The Glow yet. I did go in and get the little holodisk so I could get my power armor from the Brotherhood of steel.

    Whats worse- Fallout 1 and 2 elitists or Fallout 3 fanboy kids?

    The difference is Fallout 3 and New Vegas both have guns. So they are basically FPS. That is why everyone says they are Oblivion with guns.

    What is the difference between Direct X9 and Direct Draw 7?

    Not really a problem but what is the difference between the two and how they are used for the games?

    Whats worse- Fallout 1 and 2 elitists or Fallout 3 fanboy kids?

    I don't view Fallout 3 or New Vegas as real Fallout games. They just aren't as good. You can see they made it in first person view to drag in the Modern Warfare crowd. Fallout 3 and New Vegas fanboys are the worst. They are completely ignorant of the where their favorite game got its start. Yes...

    Bad things of fo1,2?

    I will start off by saying that I like Fallout 1 and 2. I like them both equally. Fallout 1 is a great game. My biggest complaint about Fallout 1 is that the game seems so empty when you get down to it. I know it was the first game. I also played Fallout 2 first back in 2004. I had a...

    Fallout 2 high res patch not working right

    figured it out Sorry about my posts guys. I figured it out. Only the part outside the temple has the black bars on the left and right in 1366x768 Res. Once I went inside the temple it was all good. Just like in Fallout 1. Killap and whoever else made the high res mods did a great job and...

    A character build to get the 'most' out of FO2?

    What I used to was make a female character and have her sleep with as many people as possible for whatever I needed. Like the slavers that are holding Vic. Paying with sex is cheaper than 1,500 chips. That's a little absurd for the beginning of the game.

    Fallout 2 high res patch not working right

    I have recently installed Fallout 1 and 2 again after not playing for several years. I got all the needed patches, I installed the Fallout 1 high res patch which works well. Some of the movies still look a bit off with black spaces around them. But the game looked fine. Its Fallout 2 high res...

    What engine SHOULD the Fallout Series run on?

    I liked the way FO1 and FO2 looked graphically. I noticed a lot of the loading screens looked like comic book artwork, and also there were references to comics in the game. Its obvious the look of the game was geared to this. I mean Black Isle could have done more, but they didn't. I think...

    How did you discover Fallout ?

    In my opinion Fallout 1 and 2 do a lot more than FO3 or Ne Vegas. I mean like you said you need to use your imagination. Like you do with books. Fallout 1 and 2 had way more than graphics. Though I do like the way Fallout 1 and 2 look graphically. It reminds me of an old comic book. It has its...

    How did you discover Fallout ?

    I haven't posted here in a while. Its been years. My friend gave me a copy of Fallout 2, it was a copy of a copy. I played it a lot. I loved it. Its like video game crack. Seriously. I consider it the best game ever made. If I was the type who considered games to be art. Fallout 1 and...

    Need some help with Fallout 1 and 2 with Windows 7!

    Fallout 3 and Fallout Vegas - Differences ?

    Wow watching the video I can see you can aim with Iron sights. I guess its COD MW now. LOL I also heard the guy mention Halo. Yeah its just a FPS with some scant, scant RPG elelments. 99% FPS with 1% RPG. Great. I will just play Fallout 1 and 2 and maybe even just reinstall tactics.

    Can a bad game be a good thing?

    Well seeing as Fallout 1 and 2 released in a time when alot of isometric RPGs started using early graphics cards, like Baldurs gate 1 and 2. I know 2 did. Fallout 1 and 2 were reasonable hardware wise and anyone could play them. Now I believe Van Buren could have been made with a reasonable...

    My God-- it's full of free guns

    On the topic of guns, I heard you can aim using Iron Sights. I guess after Fallout3 threw the series gun skill out the window, this game decided to run outside and stomp on its face. That just blows. I guess the gun skill is even more useless in this game. No point in even building it up. They...

    Troubleshooting FAQ, for technical help

    The problem Im having is with Fallout 1 and its that message about not having 20 megs of free hard disk space. Anyone know a way I can fix this? Normallly I just uninstall and reinstall copying my saves over to my documents and then putting them back in the game afterwards.
