Fallout - Retrospective @ Games Radar

Games Radar is looking back at the original Fallout game.

After a slow-burning start, Fallout became one of the most revered names in PC RPGs. It ushered in a dark future stomping ground that proved incredibly memorable (for a wheezing, radioactive husk) and continued to sparkle in the transition to 3D. 

Of course, classic Fallout looks a bit scruffy now, and it was never the most forgiving of adventures, so in some ways the series’ growth has thrown a harsh light onto its origins. But this was visionary stuff, opening up avenues for morality or hair-raising immorality, then leaving you to deal with the karmic consequences of lying, betraying or resolving disagreements with people like the old Vault 13 Overseer by, well, murdering them.
