In the latest Heroes episode, "A Clear and Present Danger", Sylar goes to an electronics repair shop in Baltimore, Maryland.

Fallout 3 was developed by a software company called Bethesda Softworks. Bethesda is also a city in Maryland, about 40 miles away from Baltimore.

Fast forward to about 9m15s and listen.

This is the teaser trailer for Fallout 3. Listen.

Here is Pip Boy, the mascot for the Fallout series:

Here is the front door to the electronics shop as Sylar enters:

I know the cartoon guy bears little resemblance to the real Pip Boy, but I think this was a great homage to Fallout 3. I got a real kick out of it.
