Fallout 4 Announcement Coming Soon?


Today is a good day my friends.

Today, your Wolf of Fallout learned some very interesting and possibly Fallout 4 related news.

According to EGMNow, ZeniMax, Bethesda's parent company has recently registered a new domain name titled "thesurvivor2299.com."

Why is this so exciting? Well my friends we may soon be "fighting the good fight" again.

Our long waited for announcement may come as early as next month!

Right now if you go to the website you will find a black page with some beeping. The page also shows what I believe is a countdown clock, much like those we have seen in the past for big releases of video games.

What is the beeping you ask? Well my friends that is Morse code and it spells out "11.12.13." The page's source code reveals that this is a date. A European date MM/DD/YYYY, but still it's a date. The clock is counting down to December 11, 2013!

My friends, this is huge!

And you may be saying "But Wolf, a countdown clock and some beeping doesn't mean anything."

Well kiddies inspect the source code again and you will see in the script "fallout.css."

There ya go.

And why "survivor 2299?"

Well, our friends over at EGMNow have speculated the following:
Speculation is that “The Survivor” is the name of the player-character in Fallout 4, since its style is in the same vein as “Vault Dweller,” “Chosen One,” “Lone Wanderer,” and “Courier.” The number, 2299, is believed to be the year Fallout 4 takes place. Fallout 3 took place 2277, while Fallout: New Vegas took place 2281.
 There you go friends. So is anyone as pumped as I am?!

So long for now!
