They weren't really feral ghouls though, they were more senile then feral.
The good aspects to Fallout 3?

Wikia has a habit of being wrong because it is made up by contributors and sometimes they word things to suite 'their' canon but it is not an established fact.
Feral ghouls (also known as mindless zombies,[1]
Mindless ghoul has no in game reference in Fallout 1

- The Lone Wanderer: "I need more details... What's the breach all about?"
M.A.R.Go.T.: "Internal visual sensing equipment is detecting numerous unidentified persons in the southeast tunnels area. The individuals have damaged metro equipment and refused dialogue with our security units. In accordance with U.S. Security Statute A567/B, the use of deadly force has been authorized."
The Lone Wanderer: "Can you tell me more about these unidentified persons?"
M.A.R.Go.T.: "My apologies. My sensing equipment in that area must be damaged. My equipment indicates the persons possess no internal body heat and are emitting lethal levels of radiation."

There is nothing to suggest a connection other then Fallout 3 which I ignore as canon. There is no indication to the aggression of a Mindless Ghoul other than a contributors subjective hypothesis.
What do Fallout 1 Mindless Ghouls say? Where do you see them? What do they do?
This article:
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Mindless_ghoul
Is copy/pasting FeralGhoul data
This article:
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Feral_ghoul
Is making a connection that only exists in Fallout 3, a Bethesda game. Not original canon.
In conclusion, there is not enough data currently to make a connection. If you want to make a claim that they do have a connection, please provide evidence from Fallout 1 because your reference only mentions that the actor type "Mindless Ghoul" has text dialogue.
Edit: the main article also suggests that Deathclaw eggs and hammers have text dialogue too so we should make a wikia about them being NPCs, for that matter a series of words are classed here as "humans, robots and creatures" So I better get to making some word creatures in Blender. Gotta be lore friendly.

I did suspect that but I also remembered something about how the ghouls outside of Necropolis were there to scare people. I thought the Fallout wiki limited the data on the item to that specific instance when talking about that item in that specific instance. Now that I checked it they changed that. The only hint that Nuka-Cola was only retconed to be radioactive is this

While Nuka Cola Quantum is radioactive by design, my assumption that Nuka Cola was radioactive was because virtually all Pre-War food was irradiated by the world's fallout.
You could also assume it was just pasteurized.

Scarecrows are not Feral,so by that logic Scareghouls are not either.
My rule is if it has a [1], check it out and confirm, if it doesn't have a [1], then it is unfounded.
Nuka Cola was actually addictive, http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Nuka-Cola_(Fallout)

If only they had a brain.
Nuka-cola and a cookie (debatable considering it is identical to the one from Rose's Dinner) are the only edible pre-war food items in FO1/2. Nuka-Cola didn't give rads in FO1/2.While Nuka Cola Quantum is radioactive by design, my assumption that Nuka Cola was radioactive was because virtually all Pre-War food was irradiated by the world's fallout.
You could also assume it was just pasteurized.
BTW: I forgot to mention that this is what happens to someone who drank Crystal Pepsi 20 years later.

That should happen to someone who drinks Crystal Pepsi period.

First time out of the vault
Ok so I'm kinda new here so can anyone tell me why Fallout 3 has its own forum?

meanie
It's a major installment of the Fallout franchise.

I think it did the open world exploration pretty well. I also think they had their settlements designed interestingly too, for example Megaton a town built around a bomb with bomb worshippers. Or Tenpenny tower, luxury which is a stark contrast to the outside with people who seem to be quite ignorant of the outside world whilst still existing in it.

Interestingly... just not realistically.
Why would you live near an atomic bomb other than for c00l points?
CT Phipps

I dunno, maybe because you worship radiation? Also, it's in Wasteland 2.
You have people who say, "We may not be able to defeat you but we'll sure as fuck take you with us."

Great excuse that also makes sense. CotA have never been a favourite of mine.
Irrelevant, but thanks for reminding me to play W2, still not gotten around to it.

I'm sorry but having a nuclear weapon seems like a pretty good thing in the Wasteland. I'd move to Megaton over Rivet City.

Wasn't that bomb (Canyon of Titan IIRC) in W2 being used as a literal sword of Damocles to keep the region in relative peace? That's what the owners of the bomb indicate and from what I remember, that was their main purpose (though they have religious fervor based on how their main ability is suicide bombing with dirty bombs). Plus the bomb was stored in a relatively well secured manner in a facility rather being out in the open (where anyone could walk in and tamper with the bomb).

Having a Nuclear Weapon; Yes
Having a Nuclear Weapon you don't know how to detonate; No
Having a Nuclear Weapon that could one day blow up and kill your entire family, and destroy your house; 100% No

That was the way they used it. However, my personal theory is that the Megaton Bomb is not the heart of Megaton but that it's noticeably an AMERICAN bomb since we find the Fortress full of them. It's NOT Chinese which implies that it's a bomb which was left when its carrier crashlanded.
The reason Megaton probably exists is it's propably a scrap metal city made out of the plane they tore apart.
We also know the Megatoners were people who tried to get into the Vault so it makes sense they would make use of whatever nearby resources they could make.
Who says they can't?
It hasn't gone off in 200 years. You'd need a mysterious Satanic figure to kill one of the last few refugees in the Wasteland...or a guy working for a psychopath with a sniper rifle and view issues.
CerberusGate

It is. Manya Vargas in Megaton said that the metal was from planes (it was multiple planes according to them rather than one plane).
http://fallout.gamepedia.com/Megaton
As an aside, I would comment that the place does not make much sense logistically. Not a lot of room for crops, not a lot of room for rearing animals, rather far from scavangeable places (that would exist even after 200 years of looting abstinence) and rather far from the water (and that's not considering the radiation that was somehow in the water after 200 years). All it had was safety and I understand if it could survive for the first couple of years when it formed but 200?
CT Phipps

I don't honestly get the "no crops" thing or "no animals." Because the structure isn't literal. Megaton is a representation of the actual city.
Game engine limitations prevent it from actually being the size and shape it would be in a "real" setting.
You just have to assume the crops are there.
