Fallout 2 Ad

Post » Fri Jul 30, 2010 9:37 am

So I was flipping through my collection of old computer gaming magazines, was feeling nostalgic, and came across an old F02 ad in Computer Games - Strategy Plus.
It's from way back when, Decememer 1998. Thought I would share it with you guys.

Heh. What else is there to say?

Good days when even game companies had a phone number to call to if you had questions. Nowdays, all you can do is to send interactive error reports.

I love that helmet. If you'd find FO 1 and 2's boxes on the shelves today they would stand out.

Awesome.

Seeing that helpmate makes me really wish Bethesda realized to take the whole "1950s" theme with a grain of salt like the originals did.

Nice.
This may be a silly question but should I get the Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics bundle?

Yup, definitely a silly question. ;)

If you have never played them, GET THEM!! In my opinion they were the best Computer RPGs of that entire decade, the 90's. A timeless classic. :fallout:

Wow, the undertitle is shockingly great! Didn't see that before, and I can honestly say I haven't seen another game promotion looking any similar, with an indirect insult to fantasy or other designs.
