PlanetXbox360 Reviews Operation Anchorage DLC - Fallout 3

From the PlanetXbox360.com:

"Today marks the first of a series of downloadable content for Fallout 3. Operation: Anchorage landed today and for 800 Microsoft points you can help the United States liberate Anchorage, Alaska from the Chinese communists. Instead of opening up an entire area to explore and scavenge, Operation: Anchorage is a small quest line that leads the player to the Outcast Outpost. Inside the outpost you find out that its residents need to access an armory, and to do so, they need someone that can access an old simulation. You happen to be that person. The download relies on faster paced combat/stealth, pushing Fallout's focus of exploration on the backburner. It brings fresh content to Fallout 3 with new weapons, achievements, and a new area to explore in an awkwardly different package."

LOL You can't claim an unbiased review if your a one system website.

Tempist5569d ago

Come come... Can one not say 'For fans only' in one sentence and give it a 8.3 in the next?

Given the dull review on the DLC (I read a better one earlier), I think the 8.3 is a little misplaced.

UltimaEnder5570d ago (Edited 5570d ago )

by unbiased i mean that it was not wrote by either a super fan or super hater of fallout 3....calm down there tiger, not everything is about the all-mighty console war

the word is taken out of the title now, never meant to play the "fanboy" card..... whoa you guys really get upset when your opinion spews out

Valkyrie835570d ago (Edited 5570d ago )

Good review, I've gotten 3 hours or so out of it; definitely worth the money!

FarEastOrient5570d ago

Interesting that you say its worth the money, I would tell everyone after reviewing it to wait till a discount day on Live and get the DLC for 400 points instead of 800. This is in reference to the fact that you can get full games for the price of $10 and they can be played far much longer.

If this DLC was released for the PC it would've been free because it would've been considered as a patch instead of an actual new level for immersion gameplay. This is two small for the $10 price tag and don't get me started on the Fable II content for a full price.

Vecta5570d ago

This was released for the PC and it cost money. And no Bethesda have been selling DLC on the PC for longer then on consoles.

UltimaEnder5569d ago

@FarEast: your theory makes ZERO sense, under that we should never spend more than $10 on anything game related because there is some old game out there that you can get for less money......you have fun living that life, me on the other hand is going to buy games or their DLC if it's a good product, such as Operation Anchorage is!

Valkyrie835569d ago

Agreed, the ninja suit really is awesome....one of those things that makes the DLC so unique!

callahan095569d ago

I enjoy the game and I have it on 360, and there's no way in hell I'm spending 10 bucks on this crap as long as I've still got so much more I can do with the game as it came.

Can I be bothered to go back to Fallout 3....

No

MasterD9194310d ago

And of course Skyrim's Dawngaurd DLC isn't in the mix...

TrendyGamers4310d ago

Most people have all this DLC already.

KingOfArcadia4310d ago

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.

FIX YOUR GAME FIRST, IT'S BEEN ALMOST 2 YEARS!

MrDead4366d ago

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.

Suddenbrain4366d ago

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.

Megaton4366d ago

Heard the DLC is unplayable on PS3.

MrDead4366d ago (Edited 4366d ago )

Only had big problems with Broken Steel save and reload if you have issues.

NastyLeftHook04366d ago

i played it. how is playing it unplayable? makes no sense to me.

Tru_Blu4366d ago

I got 100% on FO3. Great game but the main game is buggy as hell and the DLC is 10 times worse.

Megaton4366d ago

Yeah, I got a plat in F3, but I got YLoD before the DLC came out. Heard it was way more unstable than the main game, which was pretty bad itself.

colossi164366d ago

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.
