Fallout Tactics

Fallout Tactics is one of the best computer games i've ever played. It is quite buggy, but if you overlook the bugs it is a great Tactical Combat Strategy(love that phrase)game. I love how you can specialize your men to different classes, assigning skills to specific fields of specializations such as stealth, medication, and traps.

One thing that makes this a great Fallout game is the ability to play in realtime, instead of turn-based(you can still pick that though), which i think adds greatly to the realism.

Probably the thing that I would have liked the game to have was that the weapon models in the characters' hands wouldn't be restricted to just 6 or 7, when there are dozens of weapons in the game. But overall Fallout Tactics is an extremely great game for Tactical Combat fans.

if you have played fallout 1 or 2 before and think that this is a sequel, you're very mistaken. it's a entirely different type of game. instead of a TBC (turn based combat) RPG, it is a team based strategy. it does have the Fallout theme, but has little to do with the story other than the brotherhood of steal. if you played fallout 1 or 2 and really liked the combat more than the story and quests, than this is for you. make sure you get the updates after getting this, for it has bugs and faults out of the box, but overall i was satisfied.

Nice concept, but poorly executed. Lots of hype, but little substance. Kind or addictive, but not really. Wait till its only ten bucks, then buy it.

While not as good as its predecessors, "Wasteland", (a classic), "Fallout" (a true classic) and "Fallout 2" (an even better classic), "Tactics" still gives fans of the series what they're looking for...at least, until "Fallout 3" comes out.

While it uses a squad-based, optionally-turn-based system, "Fallout Tactics" still has the weapons, characters, sense of humor, and overall style that fans of the series love. And the upgrade to the graphics engine--as well as the option to play your own mp3s in the game--were much needed in the series.

My only complaints are that glitches are rampant, the squad-based combat is somewhat hard to get used to, and R. Lee Ermey's acting can get a bit hammy. But, other than that, this game is pretty good, and surprisingly addicting.
