Shame about them pulling the games, I'm glad I already bought them all. Sorry that some of you guys didn't get a chance to download them.

As far as the new Fallout goes, rumor has it it's based in the ruins of Boston:

I hope somewhere down the line GOG manages to secure rights to distribute the games on their platform DRM free, but knowing Bethesda and their parent ZeniMax I doubt that will happen any day soon if at all. "Capitalism Ho!!!"

Bethesda released Arena and Daggerfall as freeware with no DRM.

That's true, but look how old those games are now. The commercial possibilities have been pretty much exhausted. They had nothing to lose by releasing them as freeware. As long as enough people are still willing to pay for the Fallout games, they won't be released for free.

Who knows maybe they will release them as freeware themselves but want to do it directly...
