Finished Fallout Tactics?

I finished it today. Which ending did you get?
Spoiler:

I saved right before the end and did both endings

After reading the message boards at Fallout.gamestats, I managed to get all three endings. The good one is still the best though. I just wished they had different cut scenes for each one.

I never finished the game, so could someone tell me what those endings were?

I got up to like mission 10, and then become disenchanted with the game, and I've put it aside for now. I don't know why, but I just didn't like the feel of the game..

For me, the best tactical games will still be X-Com and Final Fantasy Tactics

Does anyone else feel that most turn based games are way too slow now? I don't know how to describe it, but X-com felt very fast, but most new games seem to be very slow, almost too long.
X-com will probably never be surpassed.

It might have been if Freedom Ridge hadn't been cancelled.

what's the third?
Spoiler:

I fought the calculator and destroyed it with over 40 seconds left, and I merged with it. Does the third envolve letting time run out?

One involves merging with it yourself (good), one involves letting Gen. Ripper (or whatever his name is, I don't remember) merge with the calculator (semi-sweet), and I think the third is just killing it (bad).

Yeah, you're supposed to give it to him at some point. I don't remember when I did it. It's been a few months now. Overall, I had a lot of fun with the game, but it was buggy as sin. I never even tried the multiplayer though, and that was all I played with the demo. Lots of fun setting mines in doorways and watching the whole squad get blown up. Never saw much use for mines in single player though

too hard to get the enemies to walk into mines. After a got a m249 and plenty of 7.62 I just burst fired into mine fields, it was easier than disarming them

Can't remember much else about the VA's for Tactics, but Fallout had Macgyver doing one voice, and Fallout 2 had Michael "Worf" Dorn as the main villain. Pretty cool. Fallout 1 and 2 are definitely THE BEST rpg's I've ever played.

I'm sort of interested in Arcanum, for the setting and whatnot, but I couldn't get into the demo. I'll try d/l'ing it again and trying it out. Maybe combat will work better. Also, from all reports, the graphics are catass. I don't recall them looking even as good as Tactics, but that might just be me.

other star trek fallout series V.A.s
Dwight Schultz - tactics and possibly FO2, I can't remember. played Barclay
Kurtwood Smith - tactics. Was the federation president in ST6, 2 or 3 tv roles. Also Clarence Bonnager in Robocop and Red Forman on the 70's show.
They get good people for FO

What the? You're saying the villain from Robocop is Red in "That 70's show?" Dang. Who's Dwight Schultz though?

Murdock on the A-Team. Lt. Barclay in star trek the next generation and a few voyager episodes. Not sure who he did in fallout though
