"Also, Obsidian Entertainment has added the ability to use the iron sights on all guns, with better over-the-shoulder view for third-person combat."

Ok so this right here has me sold. I loved the 3rd-Person view so this is just great to hear. Add a P90 in their and I would cry of joy.

Just a heads up to you guys:

It's now against the TOS on GS to claim you have got a game early, even if legitimately.

I'm on the fence about 3rd person. Combat is one thing, but fumbling around trying to pick up a small item is another. They'd have to fix that before I'd really use it.

For me only 3 of the 5 were worth it The Pitt, Point Lookout and Broken Steel. Wouldn't say they were worth as much as a full game though.

I believe broken steel is the one I have where you get the Tesla cannon. I think I will get New Vegas and hopefully the dlc goes down in price or find a good deal for Fallout 3 GOTY.

The general agreed upon ranking is: point lookout/broken steel>the pitt>operation anchorage/mothership zeta

You really missed your chance though as the fallout dlc was half off a bit ago( might still be)

This game is looking better and better.

Originally I was not gonna get it and was not very excited, but after seeing all the cool stuff Obsidian is adding, I cant wait!
It seems like ALOT more rpg elements in this then Fallout3 had, also a much better story and characters.

Hey guys, I posted the first review under the review section of the first post.

It not a real reputable site, but Im trying to be thorough... Not sure what a "meh" is supposed to mean as a score, but the guy who reviewed it used, the "oblivian with guns" phrase, which to me pretty much disscredits the review. haha... anyway, I'll do my best to keep things fresh.

Indeed it's not reputable. They had someone called "Obsidian Entertainment" post on their site that they didn't even give them a review copy and that the whole review was fake.

The review is garbage, they guy didn't even play the game. All he does is whine about graphics and he said Fallout 3s story was good. No credibility.

Rumor has it that it could just be something to do with the preorder bonuses. but then again, nothing official has been said yet about what the DLC will include. The only official word we have is that they only said the FIRST DLC will be exclusive to Xbox LIVE. Odds are it's only timed exclusive (when isn't it?) and that following DLC will be released on all 3 systems simultaneously.

Actualy, this comment was in regards to a Kinect thread i was posting in. Sorry for the mix up. On a tangent side note: I dont think many will show up for Kinects launch.
