I don't remember if it was detailed at length in the game (possibly buried in a computer log somewhere), but apparently the reason was because he failed to get the software upgrade encoded on the platinum chip, and subsequently suffered various malfunctions and system crashes over the years, fucking his shit right up. Presumably if the chip hadn't been lost when the bombs dropped, he would have been a bit more spry.

I thought the chip upgrade was for his missile defense systems and robots in Vegas? Isn't that why he hired couriers to get it to him to upgrade them? It seems to me House was content being a "computer".
As for whether Fallout have life prolong tech, we see those all the time in FO3, FNV and even previous games. Super Mutants, Biological robotics from the Think Tank, synthetics from Boston, and House's computer integration. But really, the setting has a lot of crazy sci-fi tech, I wouldn't consider anything too much. Maybe except ocean faring ships and planes, no one seem to have managed to leave North America, for good reasons of course.
I think the main player being an android is possible, but they haven't shown any mechanics related to being an android. Or they just don't want to spoil it. But I think your family have been turn into android or Synth to be more likely.

Of course. If they do go that route, it will probably be a dramatic plot twist around the middle of the game. The likely explanation will be that the player is a special one-of-a-kind android, that has organs and memories, etc. You'll think you are human, and you will physically react to things like a human (eat, get poisoned, drugged, etc.). Presumably the jig will be up when you set off a trap that only works on synthetics.

Wasn't FO3's Tranquillity Lane (vault 112) tech about prolonging life/some sort of cryo sleep?

Excluding the prologue, has the game been confirmed to take place before or after F3/NV ?
1 and 2 are still amazing.

They say 200 years after the bomb fell, so around the same time.

they buy consoles with mediocre hardware from 5 years ago, and complain that new games run at 1080p 30fps
they should be glad and thankful that they're not runnint at 800i and 30fps

I'd guess probably a few years, maybe up to a decade, after the events of FO3. I would think they would try and tie in a few quests/NPCs between the two, particularly relating to the android quest.
By the way, Jim Sterling seems to like the mobile game - http://www.thejimquisition.com/2015/06/fallout-shelter-review/
