Earlier this week, Valve announced that it has added DLC support to its popular digital distribution platform, Steam. This will allow developers and publishers to release add-ons to any game that's available for download through the Steam store.
We asked several leading developers of PC games available on Steam if they plan to embrace the new functionality. Bethesda, responsible for last year's critically-acclaimed Fallout 3, was the only one to respond by deadline.
Pete Hines, VP of PR and Marketing at the Maryland-based studio, had this to say:
"Our current plan is to continue to use Xbox Live and Games for Windows Live to distribute our DLC for Fallout 3."
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
If you are looking for an awesome RPG, look no further. Steam is offering a significant discount on its Fallout Franchise Bundle.
"You can get all Fallout games in a bundle at a significant 20% discount on Steam. Individually, all these games add up to $244.91. With the discount, you can get them all for $195.91. That is $49 less than the original price. Quite a significant discount for such a popular franchise."
😊 😂 🤣 😐 - But why?
Just wait for a sale and get most if not all of it for a fraction of that price.
20% off...lol
The original games have been given out for free by Amazon for GOG and Epic, 76 is free now on Amazon if you have prime, Epic has also given out new Vegas for free and 4 has gone down to pretty cheap prices. 194 bucks is a total ripoff when you can get these games individually for less. Don't forget cd keys might sell em for a dollar less at times too. Come on man, us cheapskates won't touch anything near or above 100 lolz
The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series
People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,
But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.
“I don’t know if we’d ever release it on Steam or any other digital distribution format for that matter. For right now PC is planned just on GFW LIVE, nothing else.”
Hm. Seems like that might be nearing the muddy waters of a wordy business arrangement. DLC on 360 and PC...but only offered through MS's own services. :/
To be honest I'll probably just wait till they release all of the DLC together in a retail exp pack to get it.
The only thing missing here is an exact amount of the payoff.
if it were on steam I would buy it, alot of people use it it would be dumb not to
This microsoft exclusivity is shafting alot of people, PS3 now steam. I hate microsoft for this...
