This game looks so much like Fallout 2 even the story and characters seem almost exactly the same to me. What do you all think? Here's a link to game I found it on mighty ape

I think it looks like I clicked at a bad time...they're running "Routine Maintenance." I'd have been interested, otherwise. I'll have to check back later.
Thanks for replying and I'm tempted to buy this game to see what it is like. Still maybe GOG Staff should check it out too if they are fans of fallout like games and see if they can sell it on here?
There we go, now its up for viewing. Yes, it definitely looks like it has a heavy FO2 influence. I'd never heard of it until now, but I see it was released in 2004. The one & only review on the site you gave is 1-Star for it being incompatible with "modern graphics cards" so maybe if GOG did strike a deal with them, it could be patched.

I just found a promo video for it here...

...and while it does seem to have a FO influence, it doesn't look like a full-fledged clone. Could be very interesting! I'd be willing to give it a shot if it showed up on GOG (and if a few others played it & had some more info to give about it).

5 dollars on amazon.com. FYI
I didn't actually write a review on that site but I agree it would be great if they can make it compatible with modern computers if it does indeed have issues with modern hardware.

I don't know if Amazon ships PC games to Australia as I there seems to be region restrictions for some of the games. Be great if I can buy games on amazon though and $5 is cheap for that game.

Weird that it was made in 2004. It seemed so late 90's when I first spotted it. Although isn't Arcanum and Planescape: Torment fairly recent games?

Nope. Planescape came out in 99 and Arcanum came out in 2001.

BTW - After Arcanum, Troika released The Temple of Elemental Evil (Which can be found here on GOG.com) and Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines which can be found on other services.

Yah I guess I understand why Amazon would restrict stuff outside the USA, but it sucks when they have good deals.
This is the second post I created that had spam posted on it, so annoying. Anyway I didn't know the Temple of elemental evil was made by troika and after Arcanum. I think I'll get that now thanks.

Shame Amazon is so restrictive regarding the sale of games I guess that decision is out of their hands and up to the game publishers and developers instead. Oh well more power to GOG = )

I Plan on getting TOEE soon as well, but I have many games on my plate...

Plus GOG has always ran an end of the year sale: I Might just wait two months for that and scoop up a bunch of games then. I Need to get TOEE, Icewind Dale, and Baldur's Gate :)
