UPDATED AT BOTTOM OF POST

With the recent removal of the Fallout games from GOG, I have decided to share some screenshots of the gamecards with the community, for the sake of preservation. I took these screenshots while the games were still here, knowing that this day was coming. I wish I had some valid gift codes to share with you guys, but I don't want to spend too much money at one short time period so I didn't get any. So instead, here are the gamecards. (a.k.a. the product pages for the Fallout games)

Enjoy :P (I know this is a waste of time, but whatever, it's just for fun :D)

R.I.P. DRM-free Fallout

2008 - 2013

P.S.: If anyone bothered to preserve some of the reviews posted on the now defunct game pages, or if anyone wants to write reviews on the games, go ahead and post them in this thread! :-)

EDIT: It would appear that someone was way ahead of me with regards to preserving the gamecards. Did a better job too, mine aren't that readable, his are full resolution. Check them out instead.

Cool. I was disappointed to find that they removed them. They could have kept them and just remove the buy option, but that is just my feeling of it.

I don't think there'd be much point anyway

I wouldn't criticize if I couldn't do better, but your screenshots are barely readable.
Unfortunately, mine are bigger in size (~1MB) than GOG allows for attachments (500KB), so I've had to host them on Imgur. These were captured by me on December 12th, 2013.

Heh. Nice job! You were way ahead of me I guess. All I did was a cheap screenshot job...nothing fancy.

You also managed to snitch some of the reviews as well. (if only a few) Neat!

I used an extension called FireShot that is able to capture the entire page (not just the visible area), although not always flawlessly. It's pretty useful.

Darn, I missed that addon, or I would have used it.

Just a quick necro.

Because on the old game card screenshots, you can see some of the old reviews for the games, which are now gone in the re-released Bethsoft versions. (maybe they got lost or something)

Also the game cards looked nicer with the old site design. Gives me nostalgia attack over the earlier days of gOg. <3

Yeah, well, the Winter Sale was still going when the screenshots were taken. ;D
