Fallout/Trivia

Cowboy Bebop at His Computer: A rather hilarious example, as some dubious journalists saw a Fallout 3 promo shot of a ruined Washington, D.C., without a watermark and assumed it was created by terrorists as a warning. Seriously.
Executive Meddling: The reason why two of the Multiple Endings in the original game were cut, because of the Grey and Grey Morality content. It's also the reason for Fallout 2 having the worst Justified Tutorial ever.
- 'Med-X', which provides damage reduction, was originally called 'morphine'.
Hey, It's That Voice!:
- Hellboy is always the narrator.
- In the first two Fallout games, Harold was Charlie Adler, who voiced characters such as Buster Bunny and I.R. Baboon.
- The Master is Cat!
Jossed: According to Word of God, Fawkes is and was always male.
- Fawkes could have been determined to be male from the start by the seam patterns on his tattered vault jumpsuit: they match the Male vault suit.
Name's the Same: Europeans may be confused by repeated references to the Great War (the nuclear holocaust that nearly wiped out the human race in the 21st century), as they are more familiar with this moniker being used to describe World War I.
What Could Have Been: Originally, Fallout was going to be based on a licensed version of the paper RPG GURPS, from Steve Jackson Games, and would have published under the name Vault 13: A GURPS Post-Nuclear Adventure. But due to disagreements, including Steve Jackson disliking the appearance of Vault Boy on the character creation screen, and the execution of the insurgent from the intro, the deal was called off. Instead, Black Isle thought up the SPECIAL system, which has been used in every Fallout game ever since.
- Fallout was going to have a film adaptation.
