Spade103 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Should i get all four? I know i should get Broken Steel (because of the level cap, and allowing you to continue playing) but is there anything else that is a must have? I'd be spending a total of $126 if i got all of them because of the price of the DLC. Which ones should i really get, which ones are not really required? Thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pants Party Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Wait until October and get the GOTY Edition, it will have all of them included for $60.

The Pants Party Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 With the money you save, you can buy yourself a different title now and then buy the GOTY Edition in October and still only pay about $126 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spade103 Posted July 6, 2009 Author Share Posted July 6, 2009 Very true. My girlfriend just bought me Prototype ;D Other than that, not much in stores these days that i'm really wanting.. I'll look around, and if all else fails, i might as well drop the money on Fallout (and Broken Steel) so i can tide myself over until another good game comes out. I'm picky. lol.

RadiantViper Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 With the money you save, you can buy yourself a different title now and then buy the GOTY Edition in October and still only pay about $126 though. Definitely do this. If you really can't wait, here's my quick summary. Operation: Anchorage - Probably the weakest DLC. I still love it, but if you want more of the same gameplay but in a different place you might want to skip it, it's more of a standard shooter affair. The best DLC items are in this one though. The Pitt: Great plot and some cool items. Manages to mix it up but still feels like Fallout. Also adds an ammo press which you can put any tradiotional ammo and scrap metal into to get different ammo. Point Lookout: Not as many new items as the others, the weapons are cool though. Main draw is the large open area, fun to run around in and explore. Kind of an odd plot but the missions are still fun. Good side missions too.

D 3 4 T H B 4 T Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 If you don't want to wait for the GOTY edition, then definatly get Broken Steel and Point Lookout. Downnload Broken Steel right away(For the level cap) and wait till you beat the game for Point Lookout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntb213 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 If you can't wait for the GOTY edition, you can check out eBay. To see if you can get it for less. I got mine for $25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdawgoku Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 I have a question about the DLC, if I get the Broken steel before beating the game(or say start a new game) I can now level up to 30 in my regular game? or does the Leveling up only apply to the DLC levels?

No its actually better to get the Broken Steel before beating the game cause with the new level 30 cap you can get to that rather than stop at 20 and having to grind a lot to get to 30. Its helpful so get it before even starting a new game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how the DLC works so I don't know if it's an island that doesn't matter in capitol wasteland. Will it allow me to level to 30 in my current game? That's kinda what I'm asking. Id rather get the DLC and beable to continue my current game w/ all the DLC perks than to have to restart a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the OP: Basically what everyone else has said: wait for GOTY, but if you can't, then get Broken Steel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmr. Bertwhistle Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 Buy all 5 at the same time, so you start a new game with so much to do. but if you're on a budget: 1. Broken Steel 2. Point Lookout 3. Operation: Anchorage 4. The Pitt ??. Mothership Zeta Definitely get BS though, extends the time you will play this game by many, many hours. All in all, Fallout ROCKS, Welcome to the FO3 club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellzDream Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 If you only had a choice of one of the DLC id chose Broken Steel becuase it enables you to continue playing however playing Point Lookout is a lot more fun and I think its a bit more challenging.

Hichia Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I recently got point lookout yesterday found it very interesting =) it adds alot of gameplay onto your game (took me roughly 2-3 hours to finish it) And also some good side quests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
