Fallout Trilogy is a compilation of the first three games in the Fallout series. It contains Fallout, Fallout 2, and Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel. Other names for this compilation as released in other countries include Fallout Collection (White Label, UK) and Saga Fallout (CD Projekt, Poland). It has been released as Fallout Trilogy in several other countries as well.
Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics can also be bought separately as a digital download in some stores, such as GOG.com.
Release history
In May 2009, the Fallout Trilogy compilation was #7 or #8 on all NPD weekly top 10 PC bestsellers lists[1], and #9 on the monthly list[2].
In September 2009, Bethesda Softworks sued Interplay for trademark infringement, partly in relation to the Fallout Trilogy pack. According to Bethesda, the licensing contract requires all advertising, packaging and other promotional material to be sent to them for approval first, which, according to the lawsuit, was never done by Interplay regarding neither the Fallout Trilogy pack, nor any of the releases through Good Old Games, Steam and other digital distribution platforms. Bethesda also claims that the name Trilogy constitutes unfair competition, since it suggests that the pack includes Bethesda's own Fallout 3. Interplay argues that there were previous releases of this pack under the same name, and thus the new edition does not violate the Asset Purchase Agreement.
Bonus content
The disc contains not only three Fallout games, but also some bonus content. It contains artwork such as animated GIF's and illustrations, videos, manuals, patches, and more.
Patches
The latest patches for Fallout and Fallout 2 are included on this compilation's DVD. However, to fix some compatibility issues, Interplay released a new, additional Fallout Tactics Direct Sound patch on May 12, 2009.
Issues
The latest edition of the trilogy can still be found in some retail stores, however there are customers worldwide reporting that the Fallout Tactics version of the game is missing 99.5% of the game's sound files. No patch or hotfix has ever been provided for those customers, leading many to pirate Fallout Tactics, just to get the sound files needed.
