In the archived Interplay website there's this little piece of info: "One quick thing... there was close to a riot over the cardboard PIP-Boys that we had at the party. To be frank, those were unique items that we produced just for the party. We made the art, printed it out, and hand-glued them...

So, what do you guys think of this revelation? Personally for me not only is it interesting,(of course) but it also shows how badly Interplay Entertainment was struggling financially during that particular point in time. And as Tim put in the video, they've would've cancelled it either way...

You know, it took me quite sometime to realize that the Mariposa Super Mutants from the Classic Interplay Era Fallout Games, have a full set of hair. I mean all took was simply watching this particular New Vegas Mod video: In which it finally helped me notice this about them, can anyone...

20 years ago from today, it was officially announced that Black Isle Studio's Fallout 3: Van Buren had been cancelled! But instead of mourning the loss of it,(like we haven't already done that for the past two decades) I wanted to present some hypothetical scenarios, & a few other questions that...

You know ever since I beat Fallout 2, I've always wondered what happened to these four characters after the events of the game. Canonically I mean, because we never really found out about whatever happened to them after the fact. Oh, and here are the four that I'm talking about BTW... The...

Out of all the game's in the Fallout series,(specifically from the Interplay era) Fallout Tactics is the most influential one for every entry that followed after it. With either concepts reused, or ideas revisited and revitalized, there's no denying that this game continues to inspire each new...

You know, it's crazy to think that we would've gotten a Fallout 4 made by Black Isle Studios if Van Buren wasn't cancelled, and that the IP for Fallout wasn't sold to Bethesda back in 2004. Now just to be clear, even though the Van Buren Development Team was talking about making FO4 due to...

I plan to play both of the two classic Fallout games, but I need a mod that makes Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 feel like the same game. For me, consistency is key. I know there are two mods that put the first Fallout into Fallout 2's engine. Those two mods are Fallout Fixt and Fallout et tu. Both of...

Huge kudos to @Diggfinger! for sharing this on the General Fallout Discussion Forum, I wouldn't have known about this if it wasn't for his post. So thanks man! :clap: On April 27th, 2023 the creator of the Fallout series Tim Cain started making videos on his YouTube Channel simply called...

I just realized that yesterday would be the 16th anniversary of the time when Fallout 3: Van Buren's Tech Demo was leaked to The Internet, by none other than this very website! And ever since I first heard about this fact, I've always wondered how that came to be. You know, like how the heck did...

Recently on Twitter, TriangleCity asked FO1 Designer Jesse Heinig if he remembered any details of the original plans for the scrapped raider factions The Vipers & Jackals, and this is what he had to say... Here's the transcript of the Twitter thread: TriangleCity: "I know this is a longshot...

If you have Fallout: Tactics in Interplay's Fallout trilogy box set, and you are encountering a black screen and hourglass when trying to load Fallout Tactics, this patch fixes the problem (which is compatibility issues with XP and Vista). If you do not encounter the problem you won't need this...

* as the FOBOS dedicated forum has been archived ages ago, I am opening a thread to it here. Last week I bought copies of Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance 1 and 2, and I received 1 today. Having played the game now, I have discovered what a half-assed job Charles "Chuck" Cuevas and Iplay have done...

OK, let's try this - maybe something comes out of it. It was the summer/autumn of 1998., a month or two before Fallout 2's release. The 15-year old me was a mischievous teen, my parents just got divorced but all I cared for in this world was the sequel to the first true RPG I played -...

This archive contains the Fallout 1 Demo in Fallout 2 mod. Get ready to explore the first Fallout settlement introduced to the fans by Interplay on April 26, 1997. This adventure is one of the shortest among those taking place in the Fallout world, but its seniority gives it a very particular...

So, I saw that there is two versions of the US edition, one released in 2006 and the other released in 2009. Does anyone know the difference between these two? And one more thing, which patch version comes with the games, is it the vanilla game?

Van Buren was the Codename given to Interplay's Fallout 3. Text from "http://fallout.gamepedia.com/Van_Buren": Featuring a fully 3D engine, that Black Isle had made for Baldur's Gate 3, commonly referred to as the Jefferson Engine. Black Isle Studios planned to include a dual combat system in...

I thought it would be interesting to look at the different cultural (and pop cultural) influences on the different writers of Fallout. I've been reading a lot of New Vegas trivia recently and it's astonishing how much thought was put into almost every story point and location detail. Mad Max and...

I'm a weirdo who likes looking at pictures and want a place where I can look at these pictures anytime together. Basically I just want to use this thread in a similar fashion to a soundtrack compilation. I can't get enough of the old graphics and character designs. This is mainly a...

Update your version of Fallout 1 up to 1.1 version. Fixes many bugs. There are three types of patch - Windows, DOS and Mac. Please download patch for version you have installed on your computer. Note: Most modern versions of Fallout 1 do not require patching and this patch is rolled into some...
