Perhaps the greatest praise GameSpy can heap upon Point Lookout is that it doesn't feel tacked-on but more like a natural extension of everything that makes the new Fallout what it is. You have plenty of unexplored territory to wade through, and the new swamp environment and the accompanying weather effects make doing so feel fresh and exciting. The quest lines and exploration gameplay feel very Fallout, and you'll want to walk through every inch of the map to make sure you don't miss out on the many different landmarks tucked away in its farthest reaches. The battles can be quite challenging, and there's plenty of creative, genuinely funny stuff here that'll have as much of an impact as the greatest bits from the original game.
If you're a Fallout 3 fan then this one's a no-brainer. Highly recommended.

"DLC is one of those things where you love it or hate it. Those who hate it wish it to go away and unfortunately, that will not be happening any time soon. DLC is a part of a gamer’s life no matter what we say. There are good DLCs and there are atrocious DLCs to be offered. Some DLC offered by companies directly insults the intelligence of gamers while other DLC is just plain terrible."
The COD DLC does not belong on the list. $15 for 5 maps is fine. And it's completely optional.
lol ur a fool. 15 for 3 maps that are flash back already made levels from previous games, and 2 new levels that shoulda been in the game anyway. yeah its optional but should have been in the game since the beginning
Online passes, map packs, custom packs, etc.....
These type of DLC are the worst and are made to rip-off people.
Great DLC is like the Undead Dlc for red dead redemption, Old World Blues for fallout, or like borderlands The Secret Armory of General Knoxx and Oblivions Shivering Isles.......
I disagree that online passes are unfair.
If I were a developer/publisher, I would be just as upset knowing that more copies of my games are being sold used, putting money into the pockets of everyone aside from those who actually created it, as they seem to be.
Nothing wrong with the second-hand market. But with companies like Gamestop who do everything in their power to persuade you to keep returning to their stores and buying used, well, I don't blame them for putting something in place that gives them SOMETHING for their efforts.
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.
Errol finally comes around and buys DLC to Fallout 3. Here's my review of Point Lookout.
