Yes, I said Games for Windows Live (GFWL), not PC, because in order to get Operation Anchorage on your PC you need to have a GFWL account, purchase Microsoft points (which don't come in a convenient 800-point size, of course), and then always be signed into your GFWL account while playing Fallout 3, adding several seconds to the initial loading time. If your old save file wasn't already linked to your GFWL account, you'll have to dig into your directory structure, find the save files, and copy them over. It's a hassle that shouldn't be necessary on the PC, and frankly just encourages piracy. Obviously on the 360 you don't have these issues."
Acclaimed add-ons for Bethesda classics Oblivion and Fallout 3 have become available at bargain bin prices on Xbox Live.
Dang, got excited there for a second. Then I realized that I've already played through all the FO3 add-ons, I just bought the Oblivion GOTY edition yesterday, and Dawnguard last week.
Bethesda announced today via the Bethblog that all Fallout 3 and New Vegas content packs would be going on sale for PS3 users from May 16 through May 30th. Both Fallout 3 and New Vegas add-ons will be discounted, unfortunately this deal is only for the European PlayStation Network.
I love these games but they do drive me insane, save often or you could lose a lot of hard work when it crashes and it always does.
Broken Steel is by far the most broken of the DLC when I'm in the main courtyard of the steel works the game almost stutters to a halt.
A good tip, if your game starts to slow bring up your pipboy for a few seconds and it seems to sort out the problem, works better in New Vegas.
Maybe I'm not disappointed that this isn't available in the US then. I haven't played any of the DLC yet but just assumed bugs would have been worked out by now. That's pretty sad if it is still broken.
Only had big problems with Broken Steel save and reload if you have issues.
I remembered Europe already had a discount on Fallout dlc shortly after ps plus started. I would've purchased all the dlc and get 100% of the trophies. Too bad.
