I will have to start this baby up again with my new card.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Since I had bought 3 of the 5 add-ons, I finally broke down & bought the Operation Anchorage & The Pitt add-on disc.  Played through Anchorage & it was pretty meh.  Gonna play The Pitt next-- heard it was almost as meh, so I'm not getting my hopes up.

So anybody know anything about that spaceship add-on. Screenshots I've seen look interesting.

The Pitt is much better the Anchorage (which really sucked).

That's next on my list.  I finished The Pitt (which was pretty good) the other night and Point Lookout (also pretty good) last night.  Out of the 4 I've played so far, Broken Steel was by far the best.

Any chance of all the add-ons being sold in one package. I don't know if they did it with the Oblivion add-ons.

IIRC they are releasing a FO3 GOTY pack at some point.

Actually wiki says

QuoteHowever, in May 2009 Bethesda announced that the existing DLC (Operation: Anchorage, The Pitt and Broken Steel) would be made available for the PlayStation 3; along with two new pieces of DLC (Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta) for all platforms.[54] There will be a Game of The Year edition of Fallout 3 which includes the full game and the complete set of all five DLCs. It is expected to be released in the U.S. on October 13. [55]

Don't know where you are from though.

Yeah, looks like Amazon has the GOTY edition for pre-order to be released on that date.

Okay, I haven't played the Mothership Zeta thing yet, but I've been wandering around Point Lookout, messing around with some side-quests.  Also need to discover a couple more locations to unlock the achievement.

Anywho, They seem to have put a lot into the Point Lookout map, but the main quest line for the DLC only scratches the surface.  They need to do another DLC that uses the same map. 

Also, although the map is pretty solid, I think they tried to cover too much in it.  I love the Ocean City-type boardwalk, and all the coastal stuff (wrecked ships, lighthouse, etc.) are cool.  But the bayou-type swamps with deep-south inbred rednecks seem a bit out of place.  Maryland has rednecks in that area, for sure, but they're not swamp folk.

I'm 50+% finished with Zeta, and I would almost put it up there with Broken Steel.  It's fun, but killing aliens is starting to get a slight bit repetitive.  And occasionally I get bad karma from killing an "Alien Worker" even though they show up as red.  Is Fallout turning: Socialist?

I've really just started looking into this game & it is making me TEH WETT.  I'm hoping that the GOTY edition drops into the $30/$40 price range by about Spring or so...

CCR, I am getting the GOTY version of the PC game and so have a spare copy of the original plus the disk for the first two DLCs, yours for the price of postage once I have the GOTY version in hand.  Interested?

Took the game for a test spin with my new LCD monitor, and was astonished - it looks completely differently (and infinitely better) than it did on my 21" CRT.  I didn't realize how washed-out all the colors were on that thing until I replaced it.  I was wondering why people kept "wow"-ing over high-setting FO3, but it turns out I just couldn't see the details!
