  • I approached the crater, it seems like this bomb made a hole into a underground shelter or something. My geiger counter was going crazy, but I was full of Rad-X and Rad Away.

    I went deeper, something here went horribly wrong!

  • I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SONG FOR YEARS GOD DAMN YOUR A BITCH TO FIND hahahahaha It plays on Big MT too ;) very nice music! somewhat spooky too

  • I remember the first time I got to The Glow. My first character had 10 intellect, so I could get all the deep, sealed away secrets of the computer. Even though I wasn't even a teenager yet I remember being completely blown away when reading about the FEV. I was so enthralled by just reading green text on a screen.

    If you can get a pre-teen excited about reading in a video game, you know you did a great job at writing.

  • What's the name of the background music that plays in the Lonesome Road DLC? Sounds epic.

  • @BewareTheLiveWire Well, you can hear Fallout 1 - Brotherhood of Steel in the Divide

  • Absolutely love this soundtrack and game <3

  • Comment removed

  • @TheMovieguyisafag And here -in lies the problem - this "simplification" leads to dumbing down of games and a drop in their quality i say.

  • It fits with the facility. A radiated FEV lab running, where lie unpowered, and a secret waiting to be discovered.A secret powerful enough to make the Master commit suicide...

  • i will never forget that one time when i got down the hole and found all those wise and clever books. so naturally i started reading em all one by one by one and when i came out i was so read-up i died of radiation disease just the moment i started fast-travelling.

  • @TheMovieguyisafag so true man, imagine a cod fag playing fallout 2 his brain would explode

  • THE GLOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!

    -Confesser Cromwell

  • i was born in 1998 yet fallout gives me nostalgia

  • @Mac0901Games Games like these transcend personal experience to reach into one's

    soul. All it takes is for one to be open to it.

  • Fallout runs just fine on W7, so are Tactics.

  • @WahookaTheGoblinKing

    MMMmmmmm Tactics was so good. If only it had the sandbox play-style like Fallout 2....

  • I do like how they reused these classic tracks for New Vegas. It's fairly appropriate, considering how the game plays out not far from California, but it really helps unite the two types of game, and really helps solidify the Fallout-ness of the setting.

    This, for instance, is damn near perfect. Where once the halls and rooms were full of life, there is now only empty desolation, the echoes of pre-War plans and the technology that drove them. Am I describing the Glow or the Lucky 38? You decide!

  • This music should have been playing in Vault 112.

  • damn, i can't wait to get a good amount of Microsoft points and download the last three DLC for New Vegas.

    also, saw the Fallout Trilogy pack for $20 at my Wal-Mart......AWESOME!!!

    too bad Win7 is too crap to play alot of older games, and even fallout 3.

  • @halopwnmaster

    You ever heard of compatibility mode? It works great. :)

  • Comment removed

  • Perfect music for abaddon, forgotten place..

    I love fallout

  • You see: Zax, the artificial intelligence controlling the glow.

    "wanna play a game of chess?" ( until you're irradiated as fuck :P )

  • "The Glow" is kind of where the entire story of fallout began. This is where the mutant virus was tested, and where the Brotherhood of Steel kind of originates from.

  • Comment removed

  • you have recived a large dose of radiation

  • Makes me wish i had a hot dog, and a really long stick.

  • after about 0:33 i was just thinking oh man, this is really bad, something not frikking right here.

  • The Glow was the best location in fallout 1

  • Yeah, I remember how I once got into The Glow unprepared. Lost everyone there, and when it came time to leave, I died the very moment I started Fast-Traveling. Had to make new character and start the game from the beginning.

  • @ResurrectedTemplar Same here. =P

  • I fell asleep listening to this

  • plays in the Lucky 38 :)

  • @westridgemattlyman And on Old World Blues, outside of the Sink. =)

  • This music, is the very essence of untold technology. Rejected into the wasteland where no man has stepped in over a hundred years. The strong sickly smell looms around you as you climb the rope, you notice the further you decend the more your Geiger counter ticks away. The atmosphere is dark gritty and corrupt with uncounted technological secrets.

    You collapse as your vision blurs, you snap your fingers for not bribing that extra rad x. Darn it.

  • holy shit... i just have no words to describe my fellings while im listen to this...

  • 2 people forgot to take Rad-X before entering the Glow.

  • This music make me feel like I am dying of radiation poisoning. And that is a good thing when it came to game play. Some people did not like the music from fallout 1 and 2. But I did as it help you get in the survival mood. The only beef I had with fallout 1 & 2 is they did not have any combat music. It felt weird in the Hub shooting thugs as to upbeat bongo music was still playing.

  • @StarControl69 You need some rope and then you can descend down a steal beam. However if your a good thief the better option is to get the electronic lock pick from the thief circle and pick the BoS front door. For some reason they do not mind you picking their lock. "Don't mind me I am just picking your lock because I think the Glow is BS" But Great risk come great rewards when it comes to the glow. This thief thing also work on the final boss, avoiding him and going straight to his bomb.

  • never played this ill save it for when i'm 30

  • Nastalgia man.... nostalgia...

  • OMG this plays in the lucky 38 in new vegas!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @StealthKing95 that`s correct. i literally shat my pants when i heard this wonderful tune. this one has to be my favorite fallout soundtrack ;)

  • SO glad they took this put this in FNV, sooo much nostalgia!

  • Anyone recognise the samples? Mark Morgan sampled extensively from other artists such as Tangerine Dream, Eno and Richard David James.

  • Thought this sounds like something outta FFX...

  • I would love F4 be made like F1/2 in terms of wold map/travel. Not just one big map with tons of decorations/camps/uncecessary shit to cover the 3min walk from location to location but a vast alienative empty world with individual locations (much smaller than this huge moloch of F3). Each with individual, worrying, scary music just like this one. Wold where you travel for days (interesting addition would be necessity of having food and water - not saying good but worth thinking about).

  • Nice music to fall asleep to, very very peaceful

  • Bethesda Softcocks

  • @Smola666

    That was uncalled for.

  • You can hear this when you are in the Lucky 38 in FNV.

  • @noob1138 I knew this sounded familiar!

  • @noob1138

    And, damn it's creepy.

  • @Siegerzkranz

    Yeah.

  • wish they made more games like this, o wait the video gaming industry sucks now, an is all obsessed with shit games like COD an halo, my fuckin bad

  • @Metal4Life117 halo is a good game

    your saying every game that doesnt have playstyle like diablo and fallout 1 n 2 sucks?

    there is a reason why FPS games make alot of money, because people like to play them and they are fun

    but cod is stupid as fuck

  • @BadVoodo0 Halo CE for the PC, THAT is where the fun is at.

    I do agree with COD, tis getting stupider, hopefully MW3 would bring back my interest.

  • @BadVoodo0 Boo, Halo, boo!

  • @doom032 halo has good multiplayer, also halo has playablility....buut you need friends and interaction for that so i guess i can see why u dislike halo

    fallouts awesome too but its people who say stupid shit like you and shuns any game that wasnt made 12 years ago that makes me alittle embarressed to be a fallout dinosaur, play it and u might enjoy it

  • @BadVoodo0 Any multiplayer game is good with friends, saying you need friends to enjoy the game at all just means it sucks. Infa 100%

  • @Metal4Life117

    Developers are making only casual games, its why Bethesda failed at making a Fallout game. All they care about is profit.

  • @Volcatious bethesda did not fail, you failed for accepting for what it is: a decent game that revitalized the fallout franchise.

    The days of isometric rpgs are over, deal with it and accept the new fallouts for what they are. If you guys want to play the classics because of nostalgia, fine, but don't expect new games to be made this way because they won't sell worth a shit.

  • @CorRomeister

    I accept Bethesda made an excellent post apocalyptic future game. I played Fallout 3 through to the end, I even completed most of the side quests. Not once in my entire time playing it did I think, this is a Fallout game. The stats, skills, perks, everything has been toned down horridly. ONE example, compare the perk requirements of any classic Fallout with Fallout 3. Everything in Fallout 3 is easier, easy quest, easy builds, repetitive voice actors. Oblivion all over again.

  • @Volcatious To each their own. I've been a fan of the fallout series since '99, and I see nothing wrong with Fallout 3 & New vegas... It's different, that's all. The stats, skill, and perks can always be improved for future games, but I really wouldn't freak out over such details since it can always imrpoved with Fallout 4. Just becasue it gives a different feel, a different atmosphere, and different mechanics, does not make FO3&NV bad. In the end it boils down to taste, which I accept.

  • @CorRomeister

    "different feel, a different atmosphere, and different mechanics", that's some huge changes, a sequel is about improving what you have, not making an entirely new game. They wanted a catalyst to boost their sales, so they used the Fallout name. NV wasn't made by Bethesda, just because its their parent company doesn't mean the same eggheads worked on it. Also for the record I NEVER said Fo3 was bad, I said Bethesda failed at making a Fallout game.

  • @Volcatious The one thing that would make me mad, however, would be bethesda retconning everything from the original fallout games and making everything in their own image. But they didn't. Made their own Fallout setting continuing the story in a different part of the States, all the while making numerous references to the old fallouts. That part I loved.

    They even used the same music tracks from 1&2 in New Vegas.

  • @CorRomeister

    I have not played New Vegas, I've heard many good things about it, and I would expect as much considering Obsidian developed that one. Engine still looks like Oblivion with a huge conversion mod. If they had improved the engine, minor changes doesn't count, I might have accepted Fo3 as good enough. IMO, the story felt tacked on. The references was a nice touch, however to me the Cons greatly outweighed the Pros.

  • @Volcatious preach that shit brother, NO fallout game made by bethesda or anyone for that matter will ever own up to fallout 1 or 2

  • @CorRomeister

    I also don't expect an isometric view. Here's ONE idea; take Fallout Tactics, make it proper 3D(have a rotating over head camera, even have zoom) and have a FALLOUT style gameplay. They made it an FPS because there are far more casual players than hardcore, comes back down to money. At least let interplay make the MMO. I could give you a pages of reasons why Bethesda failed. Bottom line, I hate Bethesda for using the Fallout name.

  • @Metal4Life117 Halo is an amazing game. You can't go around comparing a turn-based RPG to the best FPS of all time. CoD,however, is total garbage.

  • @MetroidMan95 Woah. dont go calling COD garbage. Yes, the story can be weak, but the gameplay is quite solid, just like Halo's. and the MP is superb, just like Halo's.

  • @2TJW HA.

  • @Metal4Life117 At least there is still Bethesda and sometimes Bioware and Blizz.

  • @Metal4Life117 some games are good

  • @noobcrusher141 scientific research has theorized that nuclear fallout lasts thousands of years after the initial splitting.

    Atoms reach half-life and give off energy, then half-lives of their half-lives and so on. Every single half-life has the same level of radiating energy as the last. The isotopes may be shrinking, but the radiation only gets heavier over time.

    This is shit I remember from 6th grade science btw

  • @flaksucks

    Its sadly true

  • i didnt know this song was from the old fallout :o i thut this was from obsidian's music XD

  • the fist time i entered to the glow i was very scared them from the northwere i steped on a landmine i almost fell from my desk chair.....i actually fell

  • @combair lol dude you sould calm down its just a game ( :

  • to pass the glow you need:

    -a rope to enter in the hole.

    -rad X and rad away..... or else you will DIE (i didn't died one time..... but it was luck)

    -magnetic grenades to pwn robots....

  • Went through every level and BAM! 7510 Radiation level...

  • *Walks into the lucky 38.* "Hello?" *Music plays.* *Turns around to play at gommorah*

  • This place is tooo ridiculously creepy.

  • Ever play chess whilst visiting The Glow? Big mistake.

  • @cultofdagon yeaeh i did, he kept beating me even with INT 10 so i said ok smart ass let's play, then flashy white screen and i was : "oh right..radiation...opsie"

  • Shit I've heard this in the Lucky 38 on Fallout New Vegas.

  • @NANOFORGE yea this plays in the cocktail lounge. this music coupled with the fact that the cocktail lounge is still in pre-war condition and the lighting and lack of any person or company at all in there makes it almost comparible to the original. and the only reason thats true is the fact that a few of the developers of the original fallout and fallout 2 worked on new vegas.

  • This music not only makes me think of the Glow but Pre-War locations in general that have been long lost along with their contents. It makes me think of a wasteland explorer discovering some ancient secret and learning about what it was like before the War.

  • how do i even get into that damn crater? do you need rope?

  • @ishouldplayzelda yes you need rope.

  • 1 dislike have recieved a large dose of radiation'

  • Listen to this music very closely. Can you feel the radiation filling up your lungs?

  • @Juustokauppias

    Radiation doesn't affect you through your respiratory system.

  • @KhasarDeTemplari yup . If you put the potatoes in a gas mask then put in a microwave owen nothing happens to them.

  • @feydrautha80 you do realise microwaves =/= radioactivity?

  • @fikujez Well sir they are not different. The only "difference" between radiation emitted by radioactive metals and microwaves is the frequency. But they are the same thing. Electromagnetic Waves. And yes it affects you through an respiratory system unless you are a redneck soldier from US army breathing fumes from DU shells wich are perfectly safe for them.

  • @feydrautha80 they belong to the same category ("Electromagnetic Waves"), but they are not the same thing. The frequency makes a HUGE difference. If we follow your reasoning than we might just as well say that radio waves, microwaves, UV and visible light are all the same thing really because they're all electromagnetic radiation...

  • @KhasarDeTemplari Unless you're breathing irradiated dust or steam.

  • How many radiation per second did you add in the vicinity of the Glow?

  • The glow.... I always wondered why I couldn't equip the dead guy's armor.

  • @Boyengetsu maybe because it was out of fuel ? :P

  • @mily357 But aren't the T51b's equipped with 100 years worth of nuclear power source?

  • @Boyengetsu T51bs were made before the war. 80 years passed out of 100 and some more maybe, it's a miracle they even have anything left in those cells.

    Not to mention that's some damn durable energy weapons ammo batteries!

  • @cr4yv3n That is true. But those things were built tough. And it WAS a brotherhood owned set.

  • @Boyengetsu In the original fallout 1 the brotherhood was scrapping up remnants - the mood wasn't so happy as in later fallouts ( with them building their own ).

    Their scavenging would eventually 'dry out'.

    The whole game had a very bleak view of post-apocalypse.

  • @cr4yv3n Yes they were scraping up the remnants, but if you've played Tactics, You'll see how the brotherhood was devoted to repairing and maintaining old tech. They actually started out with a bunch of tech.

  • @Boyengetsu as i said the first fallout 1 was bleak , Fallout tactics had a more happier tone. Some endings were quite ....good.

    I read that Fallout 1 once had an even bleaker view of morality - check the famous junktown main quest issue.

    Initially helping the Killian would turn the city into a vigilantee madness while helping Gizmo who while a bad guy had the right money making idea would help the city grow.

    The morality choice was considered too....real and was scrapped for the one we played.

  • @cr4yv3n I know about the endings. Played Fallout 2? Well, in the credits, it tells you how all the decisions you made affect the future.

  • @Boyengetsu like in all fallouts :)

  • @cr4yv3n Exactly. When I played Fallout 1, I skipped the credits. I was only 12. XD

  • @Boyengetsu i didn't know how to skip em, so i watched :P

  • @cr4yv3n XD

  • @Boyengetsu Also fallout didn't have any sequel in mind at first - hence why the ...weird... ending.

  • First thing to do when starting a Fallout Game: Get 2 Rad-X and 2 Rad-Away.

    Then visit the Glow.

  • when i first played fallout i went down this glowing hole and found some really interesting books inside.

    i read them all right and also loaded my pockets with lots of other goodies.

    and then i died.

    i would just leave the location and the world would fade to white before my eyes.

    tough lesson - i had to start the game all over.

  • You look in the far distance and see a massive crater. What was once a place of scientific knoweldge is now a blown out hole in the middle of a desert. You start to feel sick but must continue on. As you continue you see the bodies of random people. Losers.. you think to yourself. You throw a rope down a ledge and hope for the best. As you reach the first floor your life starts to fade away from you and your vision gets hazy. You see a guy dead in a suit of armor and wonder if you will join him.

  • Stop at a square next to The Glow.

    Take 2 RadX.

    Go inside.

    ????

  • @KhasarDeTemplari

    Profit!

  • I got owned by radiation when I met glow for the first time

  • My favorite music from Fallout 1. Don't forget to have a chat with the friendly computer down on the lower levels. :)

  • I could never get into Fallout 2. Fallout 1 and the Glow on the other hand... Amazing.

  • I love the atmosphere of this one. It truly sounds...radioactive and deadly.

  • @rigstula yep truly an aftermath sought of feeling

  • One of the best soundtracks in the game... BUT, I need to make a note to self : never play chess in that area. My rad level jumped to 600!

  • @DarkLauron, all you need do is find the pills "Rad-x" who gives you immunite by a time. And in the floors of glow, you will find some itens who can low you rad level.

  • The worst is when you find a skill book down in the glow, because you are so tempted to read it right there, but your Rads will jump so high if you do so!

  • If fallout 3 had music like this, with a darker tone, and more facial expressions. I might actually call it fallout 3 instead of oblivion 2

  • @pafenwick

    so true

  • @pafenwick

    And I thought Metroid fans were childish

  • how do i open the elevator in first sublevel of the glow ?

    pls help me ... i am feeling sick an i am loosing my hair ...

  • The beauty in this game is finding things out yourself.

  • @ischarioth01

    When you feel sick and your hair starts dropping out, it's probably

    better to exit the glow and pray for survival as you attempt to reach

    a safe place to recover.

    Speed is the key to getting through the Glow, including escaping from it.

    If you must, do it in parts, making sure you're not inside The Glow for

    long periods of time, because it really sucks when you can't get out anymore

    after having done everything down there.

  • 'you have recieved a large dose of radiation'

    'you have recieved a large dose of radiation'

    'you have recieved a large dose of radiation'

  • "Not even the carrion eaters will consume your irradiated corpse"

  • @Yodan82 *Stops* "You sence a trap is near"

  • @Yodan82 God damn iiiiittttt.

  • @Yodan82 Ah, now to simply enter the world map and receive my reward from the brotherhood!

    You have died.

  • Somebody know where i can download both fallouts 1 and 2?

  • buy them from STEAM. about 10 Euro per game, less than 200 crowns where I live. Considering the extreme value of the games that's quite a bargain.

  • @Yotunen; and THAT was what made old school computer games so amazing. The fear that you might actually end up in a hopeless situation and have to start all over again. No chance of that with games nowadays.

  • this music was so cool with the computers thats alive there.

    And to know that alot of pepole has lived there

  • I nostalgia'd harrrrrrrd at the box art and music. ;_;

  • This songs proper name is "Radiation Storm".

    Also, according to the fallout wiki it was supposed to play in the EPA in fallout 2, but that location was scrapped.

  • Oh god when i was in The Glow for first time and i saw a dead guy on the floor. I was like damn ... what could had kill this poor fellow? the radiation? another person? something is here ? mmm im not feeling comfortable right now... The music isn't helping too...

    Unlike F3 where is ohh look, another decapitaded body in the floor, ahh is cool i already saw only 5000 on the way here.

  • hehe when i first went to glow i of course found a bunch of books and read them all and then my rad resistance from chems just wore off and i couldnt even leave the location i kept dying when exitting to the world map lol)

    and i had no goo savegames to try over i had to start the whole thing al over again.

    ahh the days...

  • @G3ckobain I agree fallout 1 seemed to have the essence in the characters. Also they were not annoying polygons I had to talk to. In 3 I was rushing though as the characters were boring. 1 & 2 I can feel them as they have a personality. Hell I even go groundhogs day to listen to more of their dialogue. The Glow did have this feel of SHIT I got to get out of this god forsaken place ASAP. The Glow was like the abyss of the post apocalyptic world.

  • @G3ckobain They need to make fallout 4 more like Stalker: Call of Pripyat and have Mark Morgan music. The Glow was epic in F1

  • God this music freaked me out while in the Glow. Especially while trying to find those key cards and thinking something's going to jump out! =O

  • I got Fallout 1 a few days ago and I'm normally not that interested in turn-based style games, but Fallout did a good job on it

  • The Glow was the scariest and most intereting place in video gaming history. The amount of information, the untold stories, they made Fallout feel like real world instead of an isometric RPG.

  • Comment removed

  • This comment should be this video's description.

  • @Kuhlfurst dude, u are f. right

  • @Kuhlfurst Yes!

  • @Kuhlfurst Truly awesome comment.

  • @Kuhlfurst what gets me is the untold stories, its like, reading a book thats got holes and missing pages in. like half life 2.

  • Thanks this is my favorite song besides the brotherhood and the mutant base on the outside. this made my day! ohh man the memories.. are flooding back. staying up till 3 in the morning or more reading about FEV and fiding all that loot in the glow.. wow..

  • The Glow... one of the greatest moments in my gaming career... Fallout 1 & 2, the best moments in gaming history.

  • this game made me skinny nerd. Love it! :D

    War never changes

  • meh 2 xD

  • correct me if im wrong, but didnt the Computer AI of the glow started the war? its been a long time and i dont remember quite well what I learned from it.

  • i dont think.. from what i remember it says that there is rumor that a computer A I that controlled the united states missle system actully started the war.. the the computer A I is actully called skynet

  • thats it!, thats the computer that you found on The Glow, not sure the level its on, but depending on your science skill you could learn what happend before the war, anyway im playing it again (fallout 1) to see whats what.

  • yeah man.. its on the very bottom level.. i haven't played fallout in like 5 years.. you know a place i can download it and play it on my xp?

  • you could try searching a torrent file, other than that im not sure where else to look, sorry frend.
