  • Unda Vosari: The tagline from the series ("War. War never changes.") is used in issues one and two of Unda Vosari: Chronicles.

    Live Action TV 

  • Castle: "The Invisible Man" reveals that the US government has started researching stealth armor, but is significantly behind the Chinese, who have already started making them. Quite reminiscent of the state of affairs in the Fallout universe.
  • Person of Interest: In "A House Divided", the computer showing Vigilance's show trial of Finch, Greer, and Control initially has a test pattern on its screen saying "Please Stand By", one that looks remarkably similar to one of the initial loading screens of Fallout.
  • The cold open to "The Grove" episode in The Walking Dead (2010), with The Ink Spots' song "Maybe" playing on the soundtrack, is very much in the style of the original Fallout, going from a wholesome kitchen setting to reminding that there's a zombie apocalypse underway. You almost expect Ron Perlman to narrate how war never changes when the opening credits roll.

    Video Games 

  • In Borderlands, one of the control schemes you can select is called Nuked, and bears an obvious resemblance.
  • In Borderlands 2, one of the optional skins for Zero is a Vault suit.
  • Duke Nukem: The music played at the Duke Dome, with the air raid siren, is lifted from Fallout.
  • Quite a few in Henry Stickmin Series:

  • Saints Row IV has a few Shout Outs to the Fallout series.
  • Team Fortress 2: The Mann Vs. Machine achievements aren't any slouches in shout outs and/or bad puns, including the "Brotherhood of Steel."

    • One piece of junk is a Control Chip #13 that according to the description is an exceedingly rare item designed for controlling water systems.
    • Don turns away a customer for attempting to pay with bottle caps.
