Bethesda Announces New Fallout 3 DLC Written Tuesday, May 19, 2009 by Dan Webb Bethesda today announced two new pieces of downloadable content for Fallout 3, coming this coming June and July for Xbox 360 and PC; one of which you might even recognise from the one rumoured last month. The first of two newly announced episodes, Point Lookout throws players into a massive swampland area promising new quests and content to tide you over. Point Lookout will cost the usual 800 Microsoft Points and be available in late June. The second of the new episodes, set for late July for 800 points also, is the extra terrestrially named, Mothership Zeta, where you'll encounter a race of supremely pissed off aliens and experience an alien abduction first hand. In addition, PS3 owners out there who own this title will be glad to see all previous downloadable content making its way to the PSN starting this coming June with Operation Anchorage, followed by the release of The Pitt and Broken Steel 4-6 weeks apart. Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta are all slated for a PS3 launch after all the other three packs have been released. Bethesda also sent word that they are planing to release their content on disc with their Add-on Pack #1 (Anchorage and The Pitt) hitting stores across Europe from June 12th. Add-on Pack #2 will drop in August and contain Broken Steel and Point Lookout. No price has yet been finalised, but these packs are stated as Xbox 360 and PC only. Last but not least, Bethesda will be releasing a Game of the Year edition of Fallout 3 this coming October that will feature the original game and all five add-ons for a mere £39.99/€59.99 for the Xbox 360 and PS3. A PC version will be available and it will be slightly cheaper at £29.99/€49.99. So then ... new Fallout 3 DLC ... excited much? | |

 | Comment #2 by Mik3y Boy Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:58:56 AM Thats great i need to get all the others but i might just wait and get the game of the year version :D Yay |
 | Comment #3 by Ricass Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:59:00 AM Might have to pick up the Game of the Year Edition, I've been itching to play some Fallout since I sold it. |
 | Comment #4 by Frostylongcat Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:59:17 AM Whoo!!! This looks extremely kick ass. Bethesda really knows how to satisfy. |
| Comment #5 by b3nnyth3gr33k Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:59:47 AM + why is this in the fable 2 part |
 | Comment #6 by nickdablood Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:59:48 AM alrite finally get to 30 easier with all the new dlc |
 | Comment #7 by vgcollateral Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:00:22 AM tryng to work out wether to wait for GOTY edition or buy the packs. whichever is cheaper will get my vote. all this DLC nowadays is getting expensive. GTA IV, Gears 2, Fallout 3, Fable 2. its like buying half as many games again. |
 | Comment #8 by starkiller Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:00:57 AM cool gonna grab that one too.... |
 | Comment #9 by Lord Gothic Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:01:04 AM didnt microsoft pay bethesda for the exclusive release on xbox 360 for the first 3 dlcs ? |
 | Comment #10 by Webb Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:01:45 AM @ B3nny, ha ha. Fixed now. Thanks. |
 | Comment #11 by neiltc13 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:02:24 AM This is the massive 3pm news? :( |
 | Comment #12 by MAXIBHOY Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:02:51 AM to #8 to many this is massive. |
 | Comment #13 by Raining Light Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:03:07 AM Hmmm. New Achievements? What will it be bumped up to now? |
 | Comment #14 by mijihon Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:05:04 AM Awesome news. Was not looking forward to finishing Broken Steel and that being it, glad its confirmed that there will be more! |
 | Comment #15 by zyxomma100 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:05:50 AM October? I guess I can wait that long to get Fallout 3. |
 | Comment #16 by MrDerrf Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:06:36 AM sweet will pick these up btw didnt bethesda say that the first three expansions were "exclusive" to the 360 and PC back at E3 last year. i guess that word means nothing nowadays. |
 | Comment #17 by jumpin jonny Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:07:15 AM comment 11* the limit is now 1750 this is awesome and i love betheseda for supporting a game all year unlike mass effect LIES- hopefuly developers will learn this is the correct to support a game |
 | Comment #18 by [Waggly Bean] Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:08:02 AM Dammit, I knew I should have waited on Fallout for a GOTY edition. It's a steal if coms with 5 pieces of DLC - alone they run you up to 4000 points, which is roughly £34. Even if you buy the GOTY edition at full price, the main game is still technically only £6! Oh well, I'll see if I can pick up the add-on packs for a decent price! :o |
 | Comment #19 by Kaboozez Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:08:39 AM Been waiting for this to get announced. And now there will be 2? Jeez, I might die. Was hoping for something else instead of the extra quests (don't know what but I was hoping for it). But this is awesome news too. |
 | Comment #20 by RobertWarner Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:09:44 AM omg cant wait for zeta i wonder if its the same aliens from the downed spaceship you find on fallout 3 maybe ill be able to get more than 2 alien blasters this time! |
 | Comment #21 by Snowdog205 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:10:12 AM Bethesda i love you |
 | Comment #22 by ilRadd Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:13:49 AM Glad to see they keep adding to this game! |
 | Comment #23 by SP4RT4N360 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:15:06 AM I want bethesda kids!!!!! God any more of this game and ill be albino and 5st lol i want i want i want i want |
 | Comment #24 by mnorsworthy Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:15:18 AM shit....dnt think i can get it as iv got to stop on my mass spending for the next 2 months and that includes xbox dlc.....fck debt is worth this lol! |
 | Comment #25 by Dox Almighty Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:16:02 AM Hmm so this is supposedly a $110 game now? What a laugh. If I want to run around aimlessly with a gun I'll grab mine and head outside. Hate the new face of Fallout and it is even more boring than Elder Scrolls. Fallout & 2 = good, Fallout 3 = cookie-cutter garbage cashcow game. |
 | Comment #26 by Jollyrodger16 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:18:39 AM Finally a GOTY edition, I don't even own the game and now/in October I can buy it all in one go. And aliens are gonna be sweet. |
 | Comment #27 by MattyBoosh Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:19:14 AM Yawn. And here's me thinking we had some exciting news. I guess it's good news for the fans of this game. but to be honest, more DLC for this over-milked cash cow was as inevitable as another Guitar Hero or CoD game. |
| Comment #28 by mijihon Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:19:48 AM @ #16 I believe they were timed exclusives, though I thought it was 6 months timed, not 2 :/ Not that it matters anyway, as long as I get to play it i'm happy either way. |
 | Comment #29 by RTRD Mayhem Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:19:59 AM no US prices? is it not going to be released in US or something? i figure it'll be $59.99, but still you didn't put it in. |
 | Comment #30 by Madhatters13 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:20:19 AM Awesome news |
 | Comment #31 by SuperWoody64 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:23:16 AM Hey #25, hear that? Fallout3 doesn't like you either. This game is so awesome. And being that I live in Maryland it makes it locally made which makes it that much cooler. Every time I go to dc (fairly often) I see the monuments in a whole new light. |
 | Comment #32 by Oultranator0731 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:25:53 AM yay!!! when i saw it on another website it said that ps3 will be getting dlc and i thought that it would be new exclusive dlc but now i happy!!!!! Hopefully those new quests will be good and the alien thing will be made in the right way! 1750G here we come!! |
| Comment #33 by Webb Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:26:23 AM @29 - Yeah it will be, but I was sent the EU press release cause I'm in Europe =P |
 | Comment #34 by JNix22 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:28:15 AM @3 I agree. I'll need to pick up the GOTY in order to satisfy my cravings. |
 | Comment #35 by SickCrackho Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:30:12 AM @ webb are you sure that the pc version will cost 59.99€ as well? cause it would cost the same as the xbox version then. |
 | Comment #36 by II M1CK3H II Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:31:47 AM I barely played it when I had it, but ever since I sold it ive wanted to play it again :( Game of the year will do nicely :) |
 | Comment #37 by The Globalizer Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:32:20 AM Nice to hear about the GOTY. Might have to cough up the $60 for that. |
 | Comment #38 by Beau Coup Dinky Dau Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:32:29 AM Cool. I've been holding out on all the DLC, waiting for either an add-on disk with all the DLC, or a GOTY edition with it. Awesome news. |
 | Comment #39 by Bammyj Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:34:07 AM Woop... aliens = more power cells :D |
| Comment #40 by Tomzablade Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:37:10 AM about that goty edition, it really piises me off the fact that it costs the same price as the game and iv already wasted 1600 points on the dlc wots the point in that then bethesda |
 | Comment #41 by eternal123 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:43:57 AM OMG!!!!!! I LOVE FALLOUT3 |
 | Comment #42 by NFaMuS one Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:51:33 AM awesome, this is good news |
 | Comment #43 by SoylentGreen Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:52:31 AM Fucking amazing. A DLC Pack with ALIENS?! Goddamn GENIUSES at Bethesda. This game never ceases to amaze me. And also, it's cool that they're giving the DLC over to the PS3. Is the GOTY Fallout -just- going to be available in Europe? Wouldn't make sense if it did, at least not to me, but once again, it's not too sure. It might sure be the euro/pounds sign that's boggling me - those are euro's and pounds, right? |
 | Comment #44 by TinnoUnited Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:54:33 AM Can i just ask, how is 29.99 and 39.99 both 59.99 euros?! |
 | Comment #45 by omgyjya_switch7 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:55:04 AM Great news but, 5x800msp = £34.00! More than I paid for the game originally. :p |
 | Comment #46 by AdamCorp Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:56:18 AM Best News Iv had all day :D Hot Damn!!!!!! |
 | Comment #47 by Shadow Warlock Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:57:10 AM Wonder why it's being released on the PS3? I thought Microsoft paid big bucks for it to be exclusive to the 360 only. I'm guessing Bethesda found a way around the deal, some sort of loophole. Like most companies do nowadays >_ |
 | Comment #48 by xGoRmSx Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:57:21 AM I LOVE YOU BETHESDA! |
 | Comment #49 by iruhlman Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:57:34 AM Aliens!!!! SWEET! A must buy! |
| Comment #50 by Webb Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:00:11 AM @ SickCrackho - You are indeed correct sir. That should have read 49.99 Euros. |
| Comment #51 by TinnoUnited Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:00:32 AM Sorry my miss reading! |
 | Comment #52 by JudgeSuggs Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:02:33 AM i love it...keep the content rolling!!! |
 | Comment #53 by roman15 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:02:47 AM AWESOME ,I want to get GOTY edition not sure I will wait that long to finally buy Fallout 3 ,Gonna get Fable 2 meanwhile I think. |
| Comment #54 by Rothshield17 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:05:09 AM cool stuff |
 | Comment #55 by cassetto Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:06:51 AM ouch this take me to 3200 points in fallout DLC. i'm a alittle bit bored of DLC (see halo wars, see fable 2, see saints row 2, see....) |
 | Comment #56 by Olliezilla Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:08:09 AM YES I love fallout 3! Nice for the PS3 owners to be able to play it (well some of them) |
| Comment #57 by M ii L k MaN x Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:09:02 AM OMGOMGOMGOMGO MORE DLC FOR MEH :) |
 | Comment #58 by DemonI81 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:09:27 AM Wow... I kinda wish they'd let it go and stop with all the DLC for this game. I'll have spent over $120 for this game after buying the retail and all 5 expansions, another $20 if you count the worthless Prima guide. |
 | Comment #59 by SeaNN v2 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:10:22 AM i have only bought 1 dlc the broken steel im guna sell the normal game while it still is worth somthing and then im guna wait for the gotye but the bs download would of been a waste of needed cash |
 | Comment #60 by Pointless Dan Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:14:35 AM This is exciting! I will wait for the GOTY edition so I can play them all at once. |
 | Comment #61 by Barry619 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:15:01 AM comparing the fallout dlc to any other dlc (apart from GTA's) is ludicrous, your actually getting 3 - 5 hours of proper game content as good as the original game here, not some shitty multiplayer maps or extra bloody costumes! 800 points a pack is a great price in my opinion, i hardly by any dlc cause it's normally awful, but great content for the greatest game ever, I'll happily pay for. |
 | Comment #62 by xan212 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:21:39 AM This is great news :D |
 | Comment #63 by Astrex Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:26:49 AM Wooo hooo!!! bring on more Fallout! best game I have ever played! |
| Comment #64 by DemonI81 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:30:06 AM @ #61 I have to disagree. None of the 3 released DLC packs have been anywhere near as good as the retail. Not only story wise, but they've been plagued with bugs that Bethesda is ignoring so they can make more DLC. Also, if you buy a map pack for a game you play a lot, you'll get WAY more than 3-5 hours of play out of it. I got, in 2 days, more play time out of the Mythic Map pack than I did for all 3 Fallout 3 DLCs and I spent $10 on Mythic, $30 on Fallout 3 DLC... so far. The Fallout 3 DLC packs should have been no more than $5 a piece, (The Pitt should've been free after all the crap they pulled with it), and I'm sure neither of the next 2 packs will be worth more than $5. Let the greed flow! |
| Comment #65 by PimpingChloe Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:31:26 AM How much will the Game of the Year edition be in dollars? We don't care about lire or euros. |
 | Comment #66 by Greg0fTheDead Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:31:54 AM NICE! |
 | Comment #67 by SubtleSarcasm Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:35:40 AM Demon, you're an idiot.. I have gotten huge amounts of time and enjoyment out of all the Fallout DLC. Played through each with my 3 characters, and soon with a 4th, not to mention enjoying items like my Chinese Stealth Suit and Shock Sword throughout the rest of the game.. This game and Bethesda have earned a lot of respect from the gaming community bc they put out extremely solid games, and when there is a problem, it gets fixed hella quick.. I don't know what bugs you speak of, bc I've played through numerous times and have encountered none.. If you don't like the game or the extra content, don't buy or play them.. Problem solved.. Now shut the fuck up |
 | Comment #68 by AngrySalad Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:44:25 AM been debating picking this up but with a GOTY edition coming in Oct with all DLC, I think I'll put my money toward Ghostbusters and Prototype first, then grab this at the tail-end of the year, along with Arkham Asylum. Giddy-up! |
 | Comment #69 by Louchavelli Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:44:49 AM Awesome, can't wait for these. Hmmm.....Fallout 3 has been out for a few months and they have several DLCs available and a couple to be released. Mass Effect has been out for quite some time and only one DLC after promising more. Just venting. |
 | Comment #70 by GeneralOnx Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:45:22 AM YES! |
 | Comment #71 by tsydrown Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:46:36 AM There is a god, MORE Fallout DLC :-D Roll on June . . . . . |
 | Comment #72 by TriRock Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:50:08 AM I'll be getting them. Who'll dare a bet whether the DLC works on release day? :D |
 | Comment #73 by alfindeol Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:53:29 AM Do the math... the GotY edition, when released in the US will be about $80. |
 | Comment #74 by MandalorianSage Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:56:03 AM Sounds awesome. I can hear my hard drive getting smaller and smaller... |
| Comment #75 by tattie Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:57:21 AM Nice, this means on my main save I will be able to reach level 30 easily. |
 | Comment #76 by Night45Fox Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:58:20 AM Problem is, i only have 2.3 gigs left, going to have to uninstall mass effect. Awesome that PS3 is getting the content, not that I have one but who wins from content exclusivity?, and most didnt even care about the content just wanted a patch. The GOTY is cheaper but who wants to wait 5 months? |
 | Comment #77 by Cowraffe Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:05:24 AM Tuesday is now Win Day. |
 | Comment #78 by El-Gringo-Loco Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:18:33 AM Meh, Aliens DLC? Come on, thats ridiculus! |
 | Comment #79 by RAID186 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:23:41 AM @45 Actually 4000 points= $50. so its even more than you thought. |
 | Comment #80 by agentplatypus Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:26:49 AM Glad I haven't bought any of the DLC yet. I will ust wait for the GOTY edition. I'll have two copies of Fallout 3 though :/ |
 | Comment #81 by IanAHD Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:28:22 AM fuck yes :D cannot wait :D |
 | Comment #82 by Doktor Wilhelm Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:28:48 AM Yay, I've been saying that they should have a Alien Mothership as DLC, and the Swamp sounds interesting, very 'Deliverance'. How sore is my characters arse going to be after the 2 new DLC, what with the Alien probes and the inbred hillbillies? lol. |
 | Comment #83 by secretkaos187 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:29:30 AM Wow! the colorful range of opinions,Mine is...I'M EXCITED |
 | Comment #84 by zr122 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:34:37 AM If the GOTY version does come with all DLC, then I'll finally have a reason to buy this game. Good job Bethesda. |
 | Comment #85 by Balverine Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:36:53 AM Looks like i'll be waiting for 2 more DLCs to enter the fantastic collection of DLCs they have already released. Keep up the great add-ons Bethesda! |
 | Comment #86 by UnerringBiscuit Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:47:53 AM awesome will def pick up both dlc packs |
| Comment #87 by DemonI81 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:49:12 AM @ #67 Don't go around this site flaming people, this isn't xbox.com, this is an actual community. Second, if you looked on Bethesda's forums you'd see just how wrong you are. The gaming community is pretty sick of Bethesda releasing bug ridden DLC and games. Just because YOU didn't encounter bugs, doesn't mean thousands of other people haven't. Due to framerate issues and constant freezing (I can't even scope in with a sniper rifle or my game freezes) the game has become pretty much unplayable for me. Now mods, could you kindly do something about the unnecessary flaming/name calling? The think I love about this site is the community, but it seems people like SubtleSarcarsm would like to ruin that. |
 | Comment #88 by lordskorrkeeper Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:59:40 AM Yay! Keep Fallout 3 coming! |
 | Comment #89 by Hybridchld Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:01:21 PM Sweet! This DLC really buts the Halo Wars one to shame :P Must say I'm tempted by the GOTY Ed on the PC, mates of mine have been raving about how cool some of the mods are and would be nice to get another 1750. |
| Comment #90 by garb77 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:10:27 PM Yes! I am so glad i didn't get rid of fallout 3 after i finished broken steel! |
 | Comment #91 by weird carrot Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:12:09 PM great! cant wait to get my hands on these new DLC. |
 | Comment #92 by Darf Spud Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:14:21 PM Got Fallout when it came out but sold it. Tempted to buy Game of the Year Edition as for £40 it's the same price as when I got it last year. I even think it may be about £35 to pull in new gamers. |
 | Comment #93 by Cleeo 182 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:21:18 PM I have to say I am excited by the new DLC for the most part. I have to say I am a little put off by the "alien" aspect of the 2nd pack. After reading through everything, I will say I applaud Bethesda for: A) Taking over Fallout from Black Isle and making something truly amazing. And B) For supporting and expanding the game with DLC, these will be packs 4 & 5 and mot many games can claim that many packs......and that many successful packs either. Bugs will be encountered in most DLC, you cant plan for every eventuality when testing. But you have to agree that Fallout without any DLC is a huge game and more than makes up for the price tags being added on now. The fact that I am still playing speaks volumes. I purposely made sure I would have to play the game at least 3 times for t |
 | Comment #94 by Dr Bob Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:28:50 PM Great, now I can buy the Fallout 3 addons without Games for Windows Live's ridiculous age lock on content. The August release date for Addon 2 is a bit far away though... |
| Comment #95 by Diaxen Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:30:32 PM I'm really glad I never start playing this game because the sheer amount of DLC released for it has been ridiculous. I wish MS would cap games at 1000. |
 | Comment #96 by nickb2819 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:34:20 PM YESSSSSSS |
 | Comment #97 by x 19 Luke 87 x Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:35:48 PM more ps3 trophies :) |
 | Comment #98 by Captain Urahara Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:48:19 PM I'll get the GOTY edition. I've been waiting for it. |
 | Comment #99 by PG_MaxPayne Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 12:52:45 PM I'll def be getting the 2 new DLC when they come out. I can't wait! |
 | Comment #100 by CLB Left 4 Dead Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:02:06 PM too much dlc |
 | Comment #101 by bulletman Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:06:02 PM GOTY edition for me! :-) |
 | Comment #102 by MachineHero Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:10:28 PM just when I thought I was done, they pull me back in. I think I'll wait till I download the 2 before I play since I don't want to hit lvl 30 before the DLC's, make it that much funner to play |
 | Comment #103 by SteamingClown Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:12:23 PM wow Bethesda, Way to make me pay for all the DLC and then release it ALL for £40...............AGAIN!!! -.- |
 | Comment #104 by asilent boom Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:20:54 PM @87 Demon quit whining for the mods every time someone disagrees with you. You wanted me banned also because I disagreed with you. You've done some flaming, name calling of your own in past forums. The sad part is you do the same thing you accuse us of doing but your way to high on yourself to recognize it. |
 | Comment #105 by Krisko Disko Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:30:10 PM Oh. Fuck. YES! This means I'll delay hitting those level 30 achievements until the next DLCs come out. No point in forcing it ahead of time. |
| Comment #106 by lordskorrkeeper Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:42:48 PM @ #67 I Totally Agree with you man, you rock could not have said it better myself!!!!! FALLOUT III + DLC FTW Keep It coming for the true FALLOUT Fans like US who have played em all and love em all despite who makes em, you can't go wrong with this story IMO and Bethesda has out did themselves! |
 | Comment #107 by smallskillzu Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:45:46 PM YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA MORE DLC! |
| Comment #108 by Dox Almighty Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:46:56 PM #67 - Believe it or not, it's completely possible to disagree with someone without that person being an idiot. Hope you realize that soon. Anyways I agree with the guy you called an idiot, so I guess I am an idiot too. The Fallout DLC has not prolonged the story, provided additional immersion, etc. to the original story. It's a bunch of individual chapters that don't connect, is far worse than the original game (which was not even close to the "greatest game ever" as someone above said). It's just a rehashed Elder Scrolls, the main storyline is boring, and the DLC is crap. Increasing the level cap was the most entertaining part of it. Sorry to squash your notions of the greatest game ever, but FO3 is just a cookie-cutter Elder Scrolls game, and the DLC is just juicing yo |
 | Comment #109 by turboskerv Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:53:33 PM I hope the next DLC for xbox is glitch free. I would love a REAL expansion for Fallout 3 though, like shivering isles. I am feeling a little nickle and dimed for ten dollars for 4 hours of gameplay on all the DLC. I am happy however about the new content though... By the time all of this DLC is out, I will have paid one hundred and ten dollars to play all the way through Fallout 3. WEAK!!! PLEASE RAISE THE LEVEL CAP AGAIN...maybe more significantly this time...DO I hear 50? |
| Comment #110 by Dox Almighty Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:55:52 PM (#108)....you "idiots" for another 50 bucks. |
| Comment #111 by Dox Almighty Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 01:57:54 PM #106 Spoken truly like someone who has never played a Fallout game besides 3. Bethesda hasn't "out did" anything, they just stuck a different face on Oblivion and gashed you guys for $110 for one game. Bethesda - 1 Consumer - 0 |
 | Comment #112 by eXtreme 1138 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:05:13 PM Europeans care about euros, number 65... And the other symbol is for pound stirling, not Lira. And in answer to your question, £39.99 is roughly $62 and €49.99 is roughly $68.29. |
 | Comment #113 by SegaJack Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:06:54 PM I suppose the Goty edition will just have a bonus disc with all the content on it right that you have to install to the harddrive. Ill just download it, else the previous downloads seem a waste of money |
 | Comment #114 by smacd Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:08:46 PM w00t! that's all. |
 | Comment #115 by Paprikeh Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:11:44 PM We all saw this coming, they couldn't just stop with Broken Steel. HOPEFULLY there won't be ANY errors on these next two pieces. I didn't have a save before Broken Steel and I got two achievements while the server wasn't working so I have to replay the whole game on a separate save just to get to those two quests :/ |
| Comment #116 by Dox Almighty Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:18:58 PM #115 - har, that is clearly indicative of the "greatest game ever". Hope yous guys enjoyed paying $110 for one game. Reminds me of the N64 days, paying $70 for Mario 64 and Killer Instinct Gold. Difference is, I bought those when they were brand new and of scarce supply. FO3 DLC on the other hand... not hard to find, not worthwhile.... Anyone please tell me I am wrong. The best-selling games of all time (which FO3 cannot even sniff) cost $40-60. I would love anyone to tell me how FO3 is worthy of being the most expensive game ever (besides uhh.... Steel Battalion?). It is just the storyline from an awesome older game stuck on the same engine Oblivion ran. Sure, the story is catchy - try the other FO games - 3 is just a storyline swiped from Interplay and gameplay swip |
 | Comment #117 by strawberry Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:24:55 PM @40 you paid that extra money so you could play the game for like the last 8 months... its like saying if you buy a game brand new on opening day for 60 bucks and then 8 months later complaining about the fact that the game has dropped prices... lol it doesnt work like that |
| Comment #118 by Dox Almighty Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:27:11 PM (#116)... swiped from Oblivion. Hope you're satisfied with your buck ten purchase. |
 | Comment #119 by Kovan Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:28:48 PM Awesome, I'm loving the Fallout 3 DLC and all but.. why are we getting 5 packs for it when Oblivion (which most people tend to agree is the better game) only had 1 worthwhile pack and a bunch of crappy dungeon packs? I'm aware that a lot of people would have sold it already but I'd be willing to bet a lot of people would pick it up cheap again and enjoy some more time in one of the greatest game worlds created. |
 | Comment #120 by jd070993 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:32:02 PM £40 for GOTY edition? God, I payed £40 for the standard! Actually, I got it as a Christmas present, so that's a lie, but still, couldn't it have least been £45-£50 to make me feel better? On the DLC side though, I'll most likely pick them up, like the previous 3, although it may be a while before I do :( |
 | Comment #121 by BristolMeth Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:35:53 PM Waiting for GOTY now, better value. Maybe I will have finished with Oblivion before then too..... |
 | Comment #122 by The Bum-Mobile Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:40:19 PM Zing! |
 | Comment #123 by The Bryceroy Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:42:06 PM Why does anyone who didn't enjoy or even purchase Fallout 3 bother making an idiotic 'zomg guys it isn't isometric and exactly like the original games therefore it blows your moms balls lol!!1one Also it r Oblivion with guns lul!' post here? Bethesda is going to take flak from mouth breathers like this even if they HAD essentially copy/pasted Fallout 2 and given it a face lift. What if Elder Scrolls didn't exist? What would your truly vaunted opinions be then? Just bitching because a different developer did something different? This isn't an example of a 'cash-cow' game, no, examples of THAT would be Halo, Call of Duty, GTA, any sports titles, and virtually any JRPG. Meaning, the developers take the smallest amount of effort to BARELY change anything, then market it as brand spanking new. |
| Comment #124 by Doktor Wilhelm Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:52:16 PM It's always sad when people can't understand that people like something just: because they do, anyways I believe that Fallout 3 is a brilliant game, and will support it by buying all the DLC, to make sure that it keeps being released and in the face of the people who post several times trolling up what should be a happy thread! Yay, for more DLC! |
 | Comment #125 by blindguardian33 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:53:01 PM As I was reading through I thought that they should put all five on a disc and release it as an expansion and then I found out that they are. The only problem is my original disc. Maybe I'll sell it. |
 | Comment #126 by laundryman Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:54:07 PM The alien DCL is a terrible idea. Totally throws the value of the alien blaster out the window. |
| Comment #127 by Yoohoo Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:57:27 PM After the last 2 being so bad, im not gonna buy these. |
 | Comment #128 by SuperNova X2X Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 02:57:50 PM Hmm I'm thinking about selling my Fallout 3 now and picking up the GOTY edition on my birthday. I wonder... |
 | Comment #129 by Epic Henchman Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 03:07:31 PM a swamp and a alien ship sounds like a lame excuse of trying to get money out of us, in saying that i will most likely get them anyway lol |
 | Comment #130 by LAClennell Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 03:22:37 PM OMGWTFBBQ WE ARE FINALLY GETTING THE DLC (PS3) I think I just jizzed in my pants |
| Comment #131 by turboskerv Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 03:28:00 PM I want a MUCH larger expansion and a higher level cap! I hear 50~~~~ |
 | Comment #132 by Xtrem3 Poptarts Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 03:39:15 PM I know this article is talking about GOTY for Europe, but I'm wondering if this is going to be for Canada and the USA as well. I got Fallout 3 recently and I am debating if I should give it back and get the cash, and wait for GOTY. All 5 expansions is 4000 MSP and roughly about two 2800 MSP cards in Canada which is almost another 100 dollars. If this is guaranteed to be released in Canada, I can hold of for another 5 months. But then again, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 will just be around the corner... |
 | Comment #133 by waterhead71 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 03:46:09 PM umm how much is that in USD. |
 | Comment #134 by ReapingAngel Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 04:03:28 PM And here i was wondering why i didn't buy the game. Now I can get the GOTY edition |
 | Comment #135 by Blue Thunder28 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 04:05:53 PM So I'm getting the GOTY edition then... |
 | Comment #136 by H3CTOR87 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 04:37:50 PM @#31 Hell yeah i got to level 30 real quick just by playing broken steel on the very hard difficulty |
| Comment #137 by H3CTOR87 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 04:39:14 PM stupid keyboard i meant @ # 131 |
 | Comment #138 by nothingface023 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 04:41:29 PM Woohoo!! Level 40, here I come! Well, hopefully anyway...I noticed at lvl 30 the XP bar had a 31 at the right side...hmm |
| Comment #139 by nothingface023 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 04:46:19 PM @ #116 - I agree about Steel Batallion being ridiculously expensive (I think it was like $150), but don't forget the old Neo Geo cartridge games - they were $199.99 A PIECE brand new. And we all thought N64 games were bad... |
 | Comment #140 by SetoChaos Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 04:53:46 PM Haven't brought this yet, will probably get the GOTY edition :) |
 | Comment #141 by The Leprechaun Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:00:10 PM Wait whats with these $100+ comments. Isn't it going to be $60...? |
 | Comment #142 by Admiral Axtell Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:06:20 PM Im totally waiting for GOTY edition... but why dont you put how much its going to be in USD...??? |
 | Comment #143 by epik499 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:08:49 PM With all of the stuff coming out for this game, one wonders if they held back on the disc to milk the fans - which is working. Way to go. |
 | Comment #144 by jedifather73 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:11:32 PM more dev should put this much time & effort into supporting their games after release as long as its quality content. the bugs stink but they fixed them pretty quickly. I was waiting until Steel came out & raised the cap to play the 1st 2 dlc. i just finished anchorage & thought it was ok. starting the Pitt soon. it does suck that they're $10 but at least it wasn't for a new online map, new outfit or horse armor. if you don't like the price, don't buy it. this is the world we live in, if you don't like it, get off the ride. |
 | Comment #145 by Dredgon Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:12:06 PM Fuck yes! Now I can wait to level up to 30, if I can help myself! June iis a busy month for me with this, Prototype, and Overlord II!!!!! |
 | Comment #146 by stevec1636 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:16:14 PM just keep the DLC comming, must buy day 1 every time!!!!! |
 | Comment #147 by XvMav3rick007vX Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:36:51 PM can not wait. but i will hold off until it is confirmed that they all work properly |
| Comment #148 by lordskorrkeeper Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:38:09 PM @111 I actually played all the Fallout games and loved em all, my least favorite was tactics but that's personal opinion, I liked fallout 3 very much but again its preference why post here if you don't like the game is what I am thinking, I did not play oblivion so I have no comment there. |
| Comment #149 by Nixdorf Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:38:38 PM Will you shut up Dox Almighty you're such a fuckin loser. This game is awesome and you're not going to change that, or anyones opinions about it so fuck off and play your halo 3. stupid bitch. |
 | Comment #150 by Fyrestarter00 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:38:42 PM Can has now time peas? I can't get enough of Fallout 3 and I'm with #144, Prototype is going to be sick |
| Comment #151 by jedifather73 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:48:52 PM and feeding into this Dox Almighty is what he wants. people like him get off on flaming everyone. ignore him & he should go away just like a child. this is a very good game but the best ever? what about KOTOR 1 & 2? Fable 1 & 2? Elder Scrolls? God Of War? Viva Pinata? did i lose ya on that last one. just makin sure you're payin attention. the first KOTOR is why i bought the original xbox. ok i got off subject. any other game & i would have sold it by now. please keep the quality dlc coming! |
 | Comment #152 by Freshmaker Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 05:50:52 PM I agree with Dox Almighty, just can't see how a game like that is claimed to be the best game "Ever?", when other games have so much more to offer, and honestly this DLC thing is getting out of hand, they are over-doing the whole, we have more GS in this game thing, it's getting out of hand |
 | Comment #153 by BORG Dragon Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 06:08:03 PM Cool. Will definetely wait for the GOTY edition then... may aswell. I can get 35$ trade in value for regular Fallout 3 right now. Seems like a good deal to me! I enjoy the quality DLC. |
| Comment #154 by Nixdorf Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 06:10:46 PM WHO SAID THAT THIS IS THE BEST GAME EVER. BETHESDA DIDNT, JUST A BUNCH OF KIDS. STOP WHINING ALREADY AND FLAMING ON IT JUST BECAUSE ITS A GOOD GAME AND ITS POPULAR. |
 | Comment #155 by captainhowdy95 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 06:11:30 PM omg i am so fucking happy right now. |
 | Comment #156 by I T e N l Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 06:15:12 PM More Fallout 3 goodness :) |
| Comment #157 by jedifather73 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 06:17:45 PM wish they would raise the lvl cap |
| Comment #158 by I T e N l Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 06:22:02 PM The aliens will anal probe the lone wanderer LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
 | Comment #159 by Destiny900 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 06:50:14 PM Man...when I go back to this game after oblivion I'm gonna have some much to do. |
 | Comment #160 by LewisRedd Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 07:03:28 PM sick sick sick |
| Comment #161 by SubtleSarcasm Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 07:08:33 PM People that complain about too much DLC... you don't have to play it! And I'm sorry I hurt your feelings Demon, but like someone else said, your track record in these forums has been less than crystal clean. Ij ust tend to get a little agitated reading the same people bitching about the same stuff over and over in these forums. I know that everyone is entitled to their opinion, but give it a rest! We get it, you don't like the game. So play something you like, and let the people who enjoy this game, (which just so happens to be 99% of the people in this forum), talk about and be excited for this announcement. Get a damn life. |
 | Comment #162 by paddymc09 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 07:17:45 PM KEEP THE DLC ROLLING FO3 f2 |
| Comment #163 by paddymc09 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 07:26:15 PM i agree with 149 what a fucking loser |
 | Comment #164 by Masamune10 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 07:33:06 PM If these two DLC packs are as good as broken steel i will explode in my pants! |
 | Comment #165 by DeadSpace99 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 07:36:17 PM Nice, I'll be buying the GotY edition |
 | Comment #166 by GiLTRAP Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 07:43:19 PM Well i will definitely be getting this, although this Game of the year edition will be a personal fuck you to the more loyal fans of Fallout who got the DLC on release, not liking it at all. |
 | Comment #167 by bapae Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 07:54:37 PM HELLZ YEA! |
 | Comment #168 by NumberUno Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:01:16 PM Well waiting has paid off. I want the game but the cost of the game and all that DLC is too much. GOTY Edition will be worth the wait. |
 | Comment #169 by Flyin' Chipmunks Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:02:44 PM They're Doing The Same With Gears! Giving All The Lame People All The DLC For Cheaper And Basically Shitting On The Loyal Fans Who Bought The DLC When It Was Released! I Don't Really See The Sense In This? I Love Fallout 3 But Bethesda Are Just Being MAJOR Douches Now... |
 | Comment #170 by jungli5t Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:06:37 PM i feel like a mug for buying all the DLC on release date now |
 | Comment #171 by Der Fuhrer Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:06:39 PM Getting GOTY for PC definitely. |
 | Comment #172 by CLET8 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:33:13 PM I'm confused. Are the add-on packs and GOTY edition only available in Europe? |
| Comment #173 by iTz x Davidnes Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:37:33 PM sweet that would be awesome if they added new achievements to boost the score up to 2000 |
 | Comment #174 by tozir Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:42:08 PM how much is it in $? |
 | Comment #175 by YABLONSKII Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 08:51:09 PM @ #169 yeah i couldnt agree more |
 | Comment #176 by Lynx Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:20:45 PM I'll get GOTY version. I dont even own the game. I might by the game and 4000 M$ points card to get all dlc. |
 | Comment #177 by Gettothechoppa Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:28:58 PM kick ass |
 | Comment #178 by Slave of Audio Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:30:45 PM i hope they add DLC to this game until 2000 and then breaks the "achievement rules". Plus fallouts awesome! |
 | Comment #179 by FatalFlaw810 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:39:49 PM Good thing I didn't buy this game yet, I'll def. wait till October to get it. $40 for the game and 5 DLC's($50) is an amazing price. |
 | Comment #180 by reaperkiller117 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:50:36 PM cool butI dnt think ill be downloading the last 3 add-onns for a while cuz theres WAY too many games I want coming out this year |
 | Comment #181 by ReD S1X Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 09:59:55 PM 5 add-ons on GOTY Fallout 3? EXCELLENT! Thank Goodness I rented the game only. GOTY HERE I COME! |
 | Comment #182 by Snakktastic Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:23:19 PM Time to trade in my normal copy of Fallout 3 soon before the GOTY Ed comes out. I've only bought Broken Steel out of the current DLC's so I don't really care. |
 | Comment #183 by neoxbomb Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 10:34:51 PM wow.. i absolutely love fallout 3.. but this is getting really expensive. oh well i guess another 20 wont kill me. thank god its been spaced out. sneaky bastards |
| Comment #184 by Greg0fTheDead Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:13:56 PM #149 = good man. seriously dox, just go away you bitter troll, you are impressing....hmmm....nobody. wow, you dont like fallout 3, such a rebel! if you dont like the fallout DLC then dont buy it, but dont come around here and criticize the people who do buy it and love it. |
 | Comment #185 by odysseus123 Tuesday, May 19, 2009 @ 11:44:07 PM When I went to the game store I looked at their catalog for games coming out I saw that there was a game titled Operation Anchorage/The Pitt and it was going for $19.99. The price seems logical sense they where $10 when you originally bought them. Either way this sounds cool. |
 | Comment #186 by AE 20 Diamonds Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 12:48:24 AM hmm releasing this on the ps3 is like a big fuck you to microsoft, not sure how I feel about that, but anyways I still need to beat the main game |
 | Comment #187 by Genesis Demon Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 01:13:08 AM sucks that the playstation owners get it but i spose they should get something...scum.... but woo to new DLC |
 | Comment #188 by Jack OToole Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 01:20:56 AM hmmmmm I should probably trade in fallout 3 to get the GOTY edition. I can't belive that I haven't actually brought any DLC yet! |
 | Comment #189 by AFRO NINJA NZ Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 03:21:44 AM no thought is required for these two purchases, just need the money really... |
 | Comment #190 by StakemZ Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 06:41:43 AM New Fallout 3 content? SHOCKING!!!!!!! /sarcasm |
 | Comment #191 by Talon of Dragon Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 07:08:21 AM cant wait |
| Comment #192 by xGoufx Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 09:18:05 AM The second one looks like crap....... but my i can get more ammo for the alien blaster? |
 | Comment #193 by Mzone19 Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 10:45:27 AM cool |
 | Comment #194 by GoofyTooth Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 12:28:25 PM Everyone complaining about all the new DLC is just mad their favorite game didn't get anything... Fallout 3 is undeniably awesome and I can't wait for the DLC and the GOTY edition. |
 | Comment #195 by CACTUS Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 01:39:18 PM cool any one know if the games cap limit will go up like in broken steel? |
 | Comment #196 by DarkMageGL Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 04:36:48 PM Anyone else thinking WTH about the Alien DLC? Great news though, I knew bethesda wernt finished with the game yet :D |
 | Comment #197 by lamchop512 Thursday, May 21, 2009 @ 02:12:27 PM i cant wait for the new content the first one looks ok but the second one looks bad ass |
