5/10?! I would have given it a higher score than that. I'd have given it at least a 7 for a new area on the map (the area that you start the quest has been redone from the looks of things), there's new dialogs, new terrain (in the sim at least), some new weapons and items. I haven't completed it yet but from what I have played it was worth the points. This DLC isn't for the causal player, it's for die-hard Fallout fans that want more out of the base game without modding.

No I have not completed it yet, started playing it then felt unwell. :( I am enjoying it though (Y) , seems a bit too easy so far. I think I am a third of a way through.

Currently leading my army against the Chinese

Saw you were playing F3 earlier, not sure if you got it as well.

Yes I have had it since xmas, but only getting around to playing it. Just finished up Uncharted on Ps3, now this game will get some attention.

Ah I meant I didn't know if you got the DLC this morning or not.

I look forward to seeing what the next DLC has.

The Pitt

The second pack, titled The Pitt and available for the PC and Xbox 360 versions of the game, sees the player journey to the industrial raider town located in the remains of Pittsburgh, and is scheduled for release on 1 February 2009.

Broken Steel

Broken Steel, scheduled for release on 1 March 2009 and will be available for the PC and Xbox 360 versions of the game, sees the player join the ranks of the Brotherhood of Steel and rid the Capital Wasteland of the Enclave remnants once and for all, and continues the adventure past the main quest. This also will raise the level cap from 20 to 30.

Most reviews are saying that if you have finished the game itself then the DLC is not really worth it as a fully powered up character will just breeze through it, it would be better aimed at people part way through. A pity really as I just downloaded it earlier and am going to play it later, sad thing is that some people with the PC version are not getting the DLC show, or rather when starting a game it doesn't give the quest even though it shows in the downloads section.

I picked up Fallout 3 for PC last night (spur of the moment thing) and it's great :) I got the Games for Windows Live version so I can add more achievements to my Live profile :p (I like achievements!) and it runs quite well on my system too. I'll have to go get the DLC now :happy:

Ha ha, I sabotaged the Presidential Election in the Republic of Dave. Bob becomes the next Prez and Dave goes away to Old Oakney to establish his new Republic. However he is ripped apart by Deathclaws. :laugh:

Dave has already voted for himself. I convinced Rosie and Bob to stand as candidates themselves. Shawna and Jessica will always vote for Dave. When the last person voted, I approached Dave and asked him about the results. The moment Dave unlocks the ballot box, press the action key and remove the votes in his favor. The condition is that he should n't get a majority. Watch the impending drama. :D

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
