A Fallout movie was briefly in development at gamesas between 1998 and 2000. I have managed to obtain the film treatment with full summary of the movie's story. You can find it here:

No spoilers - see the thing for yourself. The Vault - Fallout Wiki * Fallout Online * Fallout IRC Channel * Fallout: New Vegas

Interesting, I wonder how a film would have looked at that time or whether it would have hit main stream appeal.

gamesas Films was a pretty good idea IMO.

maybe they should try again

You've GOT to be kidding me.

This is from the 90s, back when Mortal Kombat was the (and still is the only) prime example of how game to movie adaptations could work well for all involved.
