Cashgrab - Bethesda releases Fallout Legacy Collection

If this was on Consoles, I could understand.
While it wouldn't be for everyone, I'm pretty sure some People would lap up the chance to get 3 and New Vegas on current gen consoles, add 1,2 and Tactics for a nice little bonus and I guess you got yourself a pretty decent deal (relatively speaking).

If this is PC exclusive however, then I find the collection rather pointless.
1&2 are nearly always on sale. And picking them up for a decent price isn't too hard. Hell, if you played 76 last year, you would have got them for free.

New Vegas and 3 are pretty cheap these days too.
Meaning the only game this collection would be useful for is those want to play 4. And I doubt many People would pick up this collection being new to Fallout, so I have to ask, who is it for?

3 and New Vegas do work on current gen consoles already I believe, at least they're backwards compatible on xbox. They may also come with a modest resolution increase. Even the original xbox Morrowind works on xbox one and comes with some extended graphics.
 
I'd guess they're still censored, only a repack of games.
Just didn't see a point for them doing a different file packing for this local exclusive release, especially it's for UK/Germany.

Have to take leaks with a grain of salt... would also have been interesting to have the German translated by a native speaker. At least some of this doesn't make any sense:

"The full collection of all award-winning single-player games in the series! Return to Odland with the Fallout 4 - Game of the Year Edition. It contains all the gameplay updates, graphic enhancements, the ability to download and play free mods on PCs and consoles, and all six official extensions. Welcome back to New Vegas! With Ultimate Edition, Bethesda Softworks is putting together the complete Fallout: New Vegas package. The main game with the four additions Dead Money, Honest Hearts, Old World Blues and Lonesome Road will immerse you even deeper into the world of New Vegas."

Doesn't make much more sense in German. They just took parts from the Fallout 4 and New Vegas blurbs and put them through Google translate, which explains the translation of Wasteland to "Ödland" (just missing the Umlaut)

It's 18+, that could mean this is uncensored. Children & Bloodpatch etc.

Nah. Fallout 3, NV and 4 are USK 18, which makes the whole collection USK 18.
 
I'm confused as to how this is a cash grab. Companies release bundles and anthologies all the time. This is probably a great time to get into Fallout with all the games except Fallout 4 Online in one go
 
I hate when game companies just re package everything and sell it back to you. Like most people dont have these games already.
Just make a Steam Bundle if you wanna sell these games in a pack at the same price why make a physical release?
Because there always needs to be a way to cash In, right?
 
I bet they didn't even fix Fallout 3 to work "out of the box" in Windows 10, before packing it in this Collection. :lmao:
