    May have never gotten around to playing Fallout 2 as of now, let alone getting past the first settlement in Fallout, but I might have to give this mod a try. Real soon.

      Because everything made in the greyzone of “until the IP owner sends us a cease and desist” risks the console producer (sony/Microsoft/Nintendo etc) getting in trouble for allowing the content on their hardware.

        In this specific instance the IP owner and the console manufacturer are one and the same. I just don’t see Microsoft spending any effort on porting Fallout 2, though. I could see them remaking the original two though with how popular some of their other remakes have been recently.

      I don’t know why people are downvoting you for simply expressing a desire to play this

        Because my man is over here asking for mod for a 26 year old game to be ported to a games console it was never programmed to run on.

        It’s not exactly smooth sailing to port a complicated game engine to a console, then on top, put a barely finished mod for that game to be put on top of that, and make it run properly.

          I know why it’s not a feasible request for a host of reasons, I just read their post as a harmless expression of their desire to play it.
