There has been a resurrection of classic RPGs lately, with Baldur's Gate, Wasteland and Shadowrun all in the news. If this nostalgia is making you hungry for more, GOG has a great deal for you this weekend.

The 1997 classic Fallout is available for free from GOG's online store until 11:59 p.m. GMT on April 8. It usually sells for $5.99.

Although GOG recently changed its name to reflect a new retail model of offering newer games, it's nice to see they still cater to us good old gamers.

    I remember the DOS-based installer gave Windows fits for years, and then it showed you this unskippable trailer for Planescape: Torment that did nothing to explain or make me want the game and just pissed me off instead. The GOG installer is worth $6 just to have it native on Windows alone.
