Fallout, Kingpin, Sacrifice on Steam News

PC News by Robert Purchese

21 August, 2009

Interplay classics Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout Tactics, Kingpin and Sacrifice have been added to Steam.

You can buy them for £6.29 each or you can squash the Fallout trio into a handy bundle for £15.99.

The Fallout games need no introduction, of course, but one also shouldn't overlook Kingpin - a brutal first-person shooter where you recruit and lead a gang and bash people's heads in with pipes.

Steam also offers 50 per cent off 7/10 PC strategy game Anno 1701 this weekend.

Furthermore, co-op shooter Killing Floor has had a thorough update, the details of which you can read on Steam. There's 10 per cent off the game to celebrate, too.

Chapter two of Telltale's Monkey Island adventure series - The Siege of Spinner Cay - has been released on Steam as well.

Sacrifice is a very good game, the art direction is superb. No idea how well it has aged though.

I still have the Kingpin game from when it came on a CD in a CD sized case inside a bigger cardboard box with a manual. Those were the days of excess for sure. :)

It was a very violent game with a lot of swearing as I remember running on the Quake 2 engine but I really enjoyed it, probably because FPSs weren't so stale back then. I don't recall what the critical reaction was to the game at the time as it came out before I bothered too much with the internet and stuff.

Good thing to make Fallout 1 & 2 easily accessible for everyone who hasn't had the pleasure of playing them. True classics that are as great today as they were back then.

I would acquire these if I didn't have such as huge pile of barely played games. :(

In another Steam-related deal, they have Alpha Protocol for pre-purchase now for £24.99, with Space Siege as a free gift when you buy it.

Fallouts, Kingpin and Sacrifice are 6$ apiece at gog.com and they don't convert 1$=1€. Games are DRM free and you can download again from their servers if you lose your game. I'd say that's pretty perfect.

I would get them all on GOG really, nothing against Steam, but we all know how Steam's prices work. They can be gotten cheaper there.

Sacrifice was great. I'm not sure if it has aged that well though, it looks pretty ruffy by todays standards.

I bought Kingpin for £2 what must have been 5 years ago.

"Here's ya fuckin' dollar".

Pretty sick game, not that much fun, either.

Sacrifice was awesome for its time, but it seems that the multiplayer isn't available on the steam version - shame :-(

The best thing about Kingpin (as the game itself was fairly medicore) was using the voice samples for my Worms Armagedon team.....ah sweet uni memories

Kingping, that was pretty awesome. I have the disc kicking about somwhere but not sure exactly where.

I nearly bought it on Steam until I read above how much it was on GoG. Valve need to check their pricing me thinks.

Anyway, bought off GoG looking forward to playing it again.

GoG is pretty damn good, must have bought over 10 games on it now.

Another vote for GOG.COM from me here. Far better value all round and no messing with Steam clients etc

Erm, getting the Fallout collection on DVD which has FO, FO2 and FO Tactics for a dwarf-like £5 from Morrisons kinda puts the £16 that is being asked into perspective...
