Check out the 3 latest Fallout 3 Operation Anchorage here, titled "Water", "Base" and NINJA! The new Fallout 3 Operation Anchorage content is the first expansion mission DLC for Fallout 3, coming January 2009.

It's coming this month? I need to hurry up and finish the main campaign then.

Fishy Fingers6008d ago

Eurogamer seem to think so.. http://www.eurogamer.net/ar...

^^"The first of these, Operation: Anchorage, is due for release this month, with two others (The Pitt and Broken Steel) to follow in February and March respectively"

Megaton6008d ago

As a PS3 owner, this is DLC I actually care about missing. Really enjoyed this game.

Syko6008d ago

Ya it does suck you guys are missing out on this. I have over 60 hours in this game right now and can't wait for all 3 DLC packs. Especially when they raise the level cap.

CrAppleton6008d ago

I'm not 100% sure that PS3 users will miss out on this.. The press release from Bethesda says Xbox 360 & PS3.. hmm...

TheIneffableBob6008d ago

No, I'm pretty sure the PS3 won't be getting this DLC, at least not at the same time as PC and 360 users get it. Bethesda has an exclusive deal with Microsoft.

urban bohemian6008d ago

I own the game on 360 but I do agree buying out DLC is not cool. Everyone who bought the gam,e no matter what platform, should be able to enjoy it to its fullest.

Syko6008d ago

Man, Oh man...This is supposedly in MS "Certification" now and should be available soon. However a Bethesda employee has stated that the DLC will not be released prior to the patch which is also undergoing MS Certification...So at the most it will be 2 weeks or so. Hopefully it shows up in the next few days. If you get a title update you know this is right behind it!

thereapersson6008d ago

So I wonder how Bethesda will shoehorn ninjas into the storyline? Or is this just something they added because it's "cool", and has no real bearing on the plot or story?

I'm curious to see how this DLC plays out...

Syko6008d ago

Well not sure how much you have read into it...But the Anchorage DLC is a "Simulation" which I imagine you access through a Pod or something. But the "Simulation" puts you as an active part in the liberation of Alaska. I am assuming that Ninjas played a role in this liberation!? lol.

thereapersson6008d ago

Hah, yeah, it's all very strange to me. Then again, I have a different stance than other people when it comes to this game. Bethesda kind of did their own thing in regards to the Fallout 3 canon. Sure, it makes for an immensely enjoyable game, but I think anyone who really got into the previous titles can see there are a lot of discrepancies.

Plus the AI glitches pissed me off numerous times, though Oblivion was the same way.

*shrugs*

This is just my view on the matter...

Captain Tuttle6008d ago (Edited 6008d ago )

I assumed the "ninjas" were part of the Chinese occupying forces. Different cultures I know but I would assume that since this is supposed to be a simulation the government wouldn't split hairs like that. Remember the stuff Liberty Prime says at the end? Funny stuff.

I'm probably reading too much into it though.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro58d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.

New Vegas and Morrowind should have been first!

Christopher66d ago

Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.

OMGitzThatGuy66d ago

MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it.

Christopher66d ago

***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***

I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.

RaidenBlack65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.

RaidenBlack65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.

FTLmaster66d ago

Got a soft spot for Fallout 3, so I'd be down to play this.

-Foxtrot66d ago

It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.

They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.

neutralgamer199266d ago

Would love a complete remake or sequel with enough resources

Abnor_Mal66d ago

The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.

Yui_Suzumiya65d ago (Edited 65d ago )

I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.

anast66d ago

They are only remaking their games that have been streamlined.
