10 Best Fan Theories That Totally Change Your Favourite Video Games

2. Fallout 3 Predicts The Future

Does Fallout 3 have the power to predict the future? According to certain theorists, it most certainly does. Scattered throughout the Capital Wasteland are various radio towers that emit nothing more than a strange, looping sequence of beeps and nothing else.

It didn't take long for people to realise that the signals were actually relaying messages in Morse Code and, after translating them into a language the general populace can understand, fans started linking their messages to certain real life events.

So what do they say, exactly? One such code apparently translates to "nine-four-five four-two-zero two-zero-one-zero. Accident in the gulf, several dead. Oil spill apparently averted", which supposedly predicted the Deepwater Horizon disaster, and another quite accurately predicts the date and time of American actor Garry Coleman's death.

It all sounds eerily convincing until one of the codes predicts the death of Queen Elizabeth as happening in 2014.

Well that's that, then.
