You heard all the hype about Fallout 3, all the talk, saw the screenshots, heard the people talking, debating, arguing about whether or not Bethesda would do the originals justice and you DIDN'T immediately go out and purchase the first two?
Hell, I've bought two copies of Fallout, three of Fallout 2, just because I lost the discs.
Well, the third Fallout 2 was only because it came with the second Fallout.
