Fallout: London, PC [Part 2 – Avoiding the Bugs]
Before proceeding with the review, I want to bring up the “elephant in the room” with Fallout: London. Something that bothered me throughout my first two playthroughs, and also something that can be mostly avoided with some careful planning and insight. And that is: avoiding the many bugs in the game…

Fallout: London, PC [Part 1 – No Swimming in the River Thames]
Created by Team FOLON, with the backing of gog.com, Fallout: London is a free total conversion for Fallout 4, turning the English capital city into a post-apocalyptic hellscape, with various different factions warring against each other.
The entire single-player campaign – the whole game, in fact – has been modified to give you a new storyline to play through, plus loads of other extras that accent the very Britishness of it all. The mod satirises British history, culture, and British manufacturing and consumerism, and has countless unique items and locations to discover while exploring.

Beach Head II, ZX Spectrum
The ZX Spectrum of Beach Head II was developed by Platinum Productions and published by US Gold in 1985.
GoldenEye: Rogue Agent, GameCube
Developed by EA Los Angeles and published by EA Games for GameCube, PlayStation 2 and XBox in 2004, GoldenEye: Rogue Agent is an ‘anomaly’ in the James Bond video game franchise. Described as “non-canon“, and more of a “what if…” kind of video game experiment, Rogue Agent unfortunately doesn’t have any connection between it and the classic 1997 N64 game called “GoldenEye“. This did actually lead to players calling out Electronic Arts for deceptive use of the “GoldenEye” name.
Ice Nine, Game Boy Advance
Ice Nine was one of the last first-person shooters released for the Game Boy Advance. It was developed by Torus Games and published by BAM! Entertainment in 2005, and it was originally going to be a tie-in with the 2003 film The Recruit. However, this fell through when the film failed commercially, but the plot of the game remains mostly unchanged.
Ecks vs. Sever, Game Boy Advance
Ecks vs. Sever is a first-person shooter based on an early draft of the script of the 2002 film, Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever, starring Antonio Banderas (as Jeremiah Ecks), and Lucy Liu (as Sever), and was released before the film had even begun production (which is very unusual). The game was developed by Crawfish Interactive and published by BAM! Entertainment in 2001. A second Ecks vs. Sever game, called Ballistic, was released in 2002.
Wolfenstein 3D, Game Boy Advance
The Game Boy Advance version of id Software‘s Wolfenstein 3D was programmed by Mike Danylchuk for Stalker Entertainment, and published by BAM! Entertainment in 2002. And it is a very good port of the classic first-person shooter.
Serious Sam Advance, Game Boy Advance
Serious Sam Advance is a handheld version of Croteam‘s infamous first-person shooter, Serious Sam: The First Encounter. It was developed by Climax Entertainment and published by Global Star (a subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive) in 2004.
