Fallout: London, PC [Part 7 – Rabbit and Pork]

Okay, here’s a “secret, hidden” bonus seventh instalment of my recent Fallout: London adventure. This one is all about the “Rabbit and Pork” DLC/add-on that was released on 30th September 2025, and grabs of my THIRD Fallout: London playthrough.

Rabbit and Pork” is Cockney rhyming slang for “talk“. It’s also the name of a recent DLC for the Fallout 4 total conversion – Fallout: London.

Fallout: London, PC [Part 6 – Tributes and References]

The magic sprinkled over the top of Fallout: London, I would say, are the many historic and cultural tributes and references, and other fine details, that have been woven into the game by the skills and dedication of the developers.

Fallout: London, PC [Part 5 – A Cultural Classic]

Initially, when I first saw the launch video for Fallout: London, I was sceptical about how good the voice acting would be in the game. I heard what sounded like a fake cockney accent and cringed… Thankfully, though, that first impression wasn’t correct, and I’m glad to report that the majority of the accents, and the voice acting, in Fallout: London, are absolutely spot-on.

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.

Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei, Super Nintendo

Kyuuyaku Megami Tensei (aka Megami Tensei: The Old Testament), is an enhanced remake of the first two Megami Tensei games that were originally released on the Nintendo Famicom. It was published in Japan for the Super Famicom in 1995.

Like most of the early Megami Tensei games these two titles weren’t released in the West due to them having controversial content based on religious and occult themes. Thankfully, though, they were liked enough by gamers to be given fan translations into English, and this SNES re-release was first fan-translated in 2014. It has also been fan translated into Spanish.
