Command and Conquer. Half-Life. Baldur's Gate. Civilization. A handful of series can rightfully claim a place in PC gaming history, responsible for shaping the platform and its culture over the past three decades. But Fallout is something truly special. Before Bethesda built Skyrim and Starfield, and back when Obsidian was still known for Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2, the apocalyptic FPS and survival shooter became the proving ground for each studios' respective game-making styles. In Fallout 3, Bethesda built one of the most frightening and flexible open worlds in history. In New Vegas, Obsidian perfected its ability to make true, freeform RPG games. But before that even, there were Black Isle and Interplay, which laid the groundwork for Fallout's iconic retro-futurist world and all its fundamental mechanics - Fallout 2 remains, arguably, the best in the series. Whichever game you want to start with, now you can own the entire mainline Fallout series for $25. Six games. The entire history of one of PC's greatest achievements. And it's available now.
