Bethesda's post-nuclear visions for Fallout 3 are apparently so intense that an intelligence services contractor called SITE Intel Group thought that they were images of al Qaeda terrorist fantasies for the fate of Washington.

According to the UK Telegraph, SITE found the Fallout 3 images in a video called "Nuclear Jihad: The Ultimate Terror," posted on two possibly al Qaeda-affiliated, password-protected websites, where it also gleaned chat logs from users discussing nuclear attacks on the West.

SITE primarily monitors possible terrorist communications, activity and propaganda for government, business and media clients. We've contacted them to ask about the mix-up and have not yet received reply. We've also contacted Bethesda to see how they feel about their game images possibly being used as propaganda by terrorists, and are awaiting comment.

In an ironic twist, by the way, SITE is based in Bethesda, MD.

now if this was a real photo it would be awesome

It does show that Fallout 3 is shaping up to be an awesome game!

if it tricked those people, the graphics must be nice.

The picture is cool. I believe the original poster (Devdj) would like the aforementioned picture to be a reality...

Watch yourself, "SITE" could be reading this!!! (joke)


This kind of news is a joke, they should have done a little deeper research.
This also really shows how intelligent our intelligence groups are.

People getting busted, they get their resources cutoff.
Just because of mistakes like this.

Well i'm not gonna start a debate. So i'm just going to make my other, more important, opinion heard.

The opinion follows: "I'm REALLY looking forward to Fallout 3, and i'm REALLY going to buy the game. Without reading articles about it or playing an eventual demo.

With all that said, i'll say PEACE OUT Y'ALL :cool:

What mistake? They saw these pictures in a propaganda video if you'll read the article, never mind that they're from a game.
