Hi. I downloaded borderlands from the XBOX live games marketplace last week. Yesterday I downloaded all 4 DLC's. None of the DLC's are showing when I load up the game. When i load the game i now get 2 options, Playthrough 1 and Playthrough 2. Playthrough 1 just takes me to the vault, Playthrough 2 takes me to my last save. What am I doing wrong?

The DLCs you downloaded are just locations in Pandora. You have to use the "FAST TRAVEL" stations in order to get to the DLC.

Hope this helps.

there are no new place names showing in the fast travel screen, the only places are the ones i have been to as i have worked through the missions up to and including the vault. Where should I be going?

Strange. They should be listed on there. When you go to game menu, does it still give you a hint that "..there is a new Downloadable Content available.."?

If it does, then your game does not recognizes the DLC on your hard drive...

Yeap, it should not give you those messages, if you have the DLC...
I would restart and start a new game, finishe the first several quests in Arid Badlands and Skag Gully and then try again (using the Fast Travel station)...

It has been a while since I played, but I believe that the DLC is only available at certain fast travel location.

I was a little off. Here is how to get to the DLC locations, look at the bottom of the page for the DLC:

Sorted it. When i originally downloaded the DLC's, I did it from within the game. I have now re-downloaded the DLC's directly from the game marketplace. I let the downloads complete without running and other games so they didn't interrupt. I am now happily slaughtering Zombie's ;-)
