Todd Howard recently said that hewanted people to experience Fallout 1 and 2 as they were, rather than remake them. Well, this’ll make things easier: both games are currently free to keep as part of theFalloutClassic Collection over on the Epic Games Store.Fallout Tactics is free, too, but I don’t know whether Todd’s cruel enough to want people to experience that one as it was.You can head to theFallout Classic Collection store pageanytime between now and September 5th at 4pm to add the set to your account. Which means that you’ll need an Epic account, of course.I’m aFallout 3-and-after heathen, so I can only turn toyour own picks for the best RPGsto tell me that Fallout places at 13 andFallout 2at 21. Those are respectable positions for two games that are, frankly, ancient. (Fallout Tactics didn’t place.)Or perhaps I should look to Edwin, who revisitedthe original Fallout and found it the perfect antidoteto the fever around the Fallout TV series. He also found it “the hardest to get into”, all these years later.My parents have been staying with me for the past week and we didn’t Fallout even once. On the other hand, I discovered recently that my dog has fleas, so if someone wants to nuke my entire flat, that’s fine with me.There’s a second game currently free over on Epic, and it’s Wild Card Football,which you can grab here. It’s a knockabout 7-aside arcade American football game, where 150 ‘Wild Cards’ remix the rules with invisibility, stat boosts, flying saucers, and the like. Shades of Brutal Sports Football,maybe? Or perhaps that’s just me longing for hyperviolence.For regular updates on what’s free, and what’s coming next, check out our guide toall the free games on the Epic Games Store.
