'Fallout 4' tips and tricks: Movie references part of title's Easter eggs

Bethesda has been known to provide Easter eggs and secrets to its franchises over the years, and the latest "Fallout" installment doesn't disappoint. Although the title was released only a month or so ago, players and observers have already listed down some of the best secrets and Easter eggs discovered in "Fallout 4."

Dorkly said that one of the most recent pop culture references found in the post-apocalyptic title is a recreation of a scene in a popular fim. Apparently, an NPC's death in the waters off the Boston Wastelands is right out of "Jaws," based on the character from the movie's signature blue bandana seen lying on the floor of the boat.

Meanwhile, another film reference can be seen in the Back Street Apparel. According to IGN, the teddy bear reading a newspaper while sitting atop the toilet is a nod to Seth McFarlane's "Ted." In the movie, the main character Ted the teddy bear is also seen doing the exact same thing, with his glasses on. In "Fallout 4," players can take both the teddy bear and the newspaper and add the two items in their inventory, or as part of their collections in the sanctuary.

Meanwhile, GottBeMobile also listed at least two more movie references that players can find in "Fallout 4." Apparently, the monkey with the ear-shattering cymbals that activate when players get close to it is a reference to the monkey appearing together with Woody and Buzz Lightyear in "Toy Story 3."

Meanwhile, another science-fiction film, Harrison Ford's "Blade Runner," is also referenced. In "Fallout 4," there is a noodle center in the outskirts of Diamond City served by a robot that only speaks Japanese, recreating a storyline in the movie. In addition, there supposedly exists a recreation of another scene in "Blade Runner," this time on the roof of the Mass Fusion Containment Shed.
