10 Massive Video Game Spoilers The Internet Totally Ruined

7. Fallout 4

The major spoiler: Your wife is killed and Shaun is the head of the Institute

Fallout 4 is a game littered with twisting paths, quests, and Easter Eggs, so it's a pretty difficult story to spoil so easily.

That said, anyone embarking on the title's main quest revolving around the wanderer's journey to find his long lost son can have the experience easily shattered with the revelation that it's actually been 260 years since the bombs first dropped, and that within that time, Shaun was abducted by the institute and eventually rose through its ranks to become its director.

It's one of Bethesda's strangest twists by far, but even if no one really plays the likes of Fallout or Skyrim for their main story, it's still a pretty naff thing to have spoiled. Its release so close to the holiday period didn't really influence restraint on would-be trolls either, so gamers got to delight in having the title ruined before they even got to Christmas Day.
