Certain media outlets, one of which is This is London, a branch of the UK's Evening Standard, are running stories about images that have appeared on websites devoted to militant Islamics. Problem is, the image everyone is concerned about is conceptual art from Bethesda's next game, Fallout 3.

This is the apocalyptic scene terrorists hope to create if they ever get their hands on a nuclear bomb.

The computer-generated image below was posted on an Islamic extremists' website yesterday.

The caption for the image states: This computer generated image posted on terror forums depict what would happen if a nuclear attack took place in Washington D.C

You can find this very image in the art section for Fallout 3 here.
