This DLC will raise the level cap to 30 so it's actually worth buying.

Yep, really wish this was coming to the PS3. I very rarely by DLC and this is one game that I would get it without question. Such a shame :(

Fallout 3 deffinatly ranks in my top 3 games of last year but getting to lvl 20 is too damn quick and easy.

Actually the DLC that raises the level cap won't be coming out until March. This is a simulation. You will receive a new location on your map and will go to it and will be able to play it. I think there are two new weapons and the Chinese Recon Suite that is supposed to be just like activating a stealth boy when you wear it.

I should have finished up all the achievements by the time the DLC hits. What great timing. I can't wait but I don't know how squad tactics will work with Fallout 3. We'll see.

6 - Fallout 3 is too big already.
The game is too big. It feels more focused than Oblivion, but I would rather see a smaller world with more developed characters. I don't need DLC for a game this big.

6.1 - No way, I want a never ending Fallout 3.
I love to explore every inch, look for easter eggs and rare weapons and armor. I would like to be able to drive one of the many motorcycles in the game though.

I just wish this first episode was increasing the level cap. Hitting 20 made me reluctant to do anymore exploration.

I've spent so many hours in Fallout 3 already and have barely scratched the surface of this game. I'm still going to grab the DLC, even though I haven't finished the main story. ^_^

I wish I could be excited about this, unfortunatly I'm a PS3 owner, and Bethesda has screwed us all, damn I hate those guys. Its a fantastic game but it'll be the last Bethesda game I'll be buying.

They screwed you by telling you BEFORE you purchased the PS3 version that you wouldn't be getting DLC?

Good one!

a yes baby

already started on a second character (evil and neutral at the same time) to get the remaining achievements. i am level 12 right now (already finished and cap the level in my first "good' character)

so by the time the dlc gets here i will be more than ready to dive in ..

also does anyone know if there are new achievemnts for the DLC?

anyways i'll be enjoying this inmensley. too bad it is not for everyone, but judgung by the posts of the sony fans they allegedly do not care for DLC so they wont'be missing out i guess. (although i really feel that they are just saying that becasue they don't have a 360)

Play it on very hard, it changes the whole strategy on how you play the game.

will the cap be raised to level 30? or do i have to wait till the third dlc. for 800 points it better be more than 5 hours to be worth it
Shut this user up Let user speak
Dread - 351 days 20 hours ago

i agree

it better be more than 5 hours.

however, judging by past DLC from Bethseda is is likely that it will be more than enough to make it worth it.

but it is a valid concern.

...that Bethesda follows suit like they did with Oblivion and release this on PS3 at some point in the future.

16 - 100 extra
The first of three upcoming DLC packs for Fallout 3, titled "Operation: Anchorage," is set for release January 27th, but thanks to an update released for the game today, people with the PC version got a little sneak of what the achievements and quests found in the DLC are going to be.

As with most of the current achievements, there will be four new achievements for completing quests. There may be more than these four quests as there are multiple mini-quests found throughout the Wasteland, but these four can be confirmed:

* Aiding the Outcasts (20)
* The Guns of Anchorage (20)
* Paving the Way (20)
* Operation: Anchorage (40)

17 - I never thought I'd say it but...
Screw Bethseda, wtf bethseda?!?! I've loved your games in the past, and just once I get this for the ps3, and you screw me over on the dlc? wtf?!?!? I would have bought it!!!

So what, since most games come out for both systems, now they are have exclusive dlc?! Screw that, damn it.

.... Did I mention I really wanted to get the dlc?:P
