Upon receiving my Xbox 360 from repair, I decided that it wouldn’t be a bad idea to finally finish up Mothership Zeta. While facing the final ‘boss’, I noticed a little notification telling me that I had leveled up to 31. I was surprised to level up so I did some searching around and the level cap is still 30. I guess Fallout was feeling generous that day

Has anyone else run into / heard about this?
Did you miss out on Fallout 3 or maybe had a pet jackalope eat your game disc? Amazon has you covered! They’re peddling the PS3 edition of Fallout 3 today for $19.98. It’s not the Game of the Year version, so you aren’t getting all the DLC, but if you just want to experience to core gameplay and save a few bucks, it’s definitely worth the purchase.
My recommendation is to just go for this deal and get the one DLC package that expands the level cap to 30, Broken Steel. You’ll save money on the GoTY edition and still a lot of awesome gameplay. What are you waiting for?
Feeling a bit too happy today? I’m not – looking over this list of some high profile games that were cut off mid development makes me sad. Be it Ensemble Studios Halo MMO or Blizzards Starcraft Ghost, no one likes to see a potentially awesome game cut off during development, never to see the light of day again.
So grab some tissues, hit the jump, and shed manly (or womanly) tears with me as we look at some of these games that never quite made it.
Those who have purchased all 5 Fallout 3 expansions should be getting emails soon notifying them that their new theme is available for download. I thought I would give you guys a preview of the new theme. Overall it is visually a nice theme and is currently replacing my Halo 3 theme (sorry Halo fans).
Yesterday the guys over at Bethesda threw up this screenshot and a little bit of knowledge. Bethsoft is dropping a premium theme for Fallout 3 thanks to a few artists throwing down a lot of effort. If you are a fan of the wasteland you can make your NXE look like a bomb dropped on it for a mere 240 MS buckaroos. If you are a REAL Fallout 3 fanboy and buy all the DLC / expansion packs (or whatever you kids are calling them these days) before 22-Sept, you can get this theme for FREE! Free is great, but it comes at the price of 5 more adventures in the wasteland which translates to many many many more hours of Fallout… almost too much for me to bear, but I’ll try anyway. Kudos to Bethesda for getting Microsoft to give something away for free! Sort of anyway.
Fallout 3 is finally getting DLC for the PS3 version of the game starting next week. Bethesda today pushed out a patch for the game to optimize a few things as well as add Trophy support for the DLC. Next week, Broken Steel drops, so you’ll be able to run up to level 30 with the first DLC package. The follow week (October 1st), both Operation: Anchorage and The Pitt will be released. Finally, on October 8th, Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta will be available to purchase. That is a ton of content in a short period of time.
To go along with the PS3 DLC, Bethesda finally confirmed the release date for the Game of the Year editions, which will be available at retail starting October 14th. The PS3 and Xbox 360 versions will run you $59.99 while the PC version will be $49.99. The GoTY editions contain all DLC, so it’s a nice bargain if you want to wait a bit longer on the PS3 and pick up the game.
After having to wait nearly a year since the launch of the game, it looks as if Bethesda is finally releasing DLC for the PS3 version of Fallout 3. I actually stumbled upon this as I was browsing through the EB Games website. It appears that come October 13th, PS3 gamers will be able to get their DLC fix for $60 with the Game o the Year edition. The decision by Bethesda to release this DLC on the PS3 should satisfy previously disgruntled owners who have had to wait while PC and 360 gamers were treated to all 5 expansions. In order to cater to the majority of players who already own the game, Bethesda will probably release each expansion for $10 (similar to the 360/PC) or perhaps package them all together in one for a lower price.
Game developer Bethesda – you might remember them from such games as Fallout 3 and The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion – announced today that they will be revealing a new game “in the next month or so”, according to MTV. While exciting, this is not the Elder Scrolls 5 announcement I’ve been waiting for, but rather confirmed as a game other than Fallout or Elder Scrolls, and not an iPhone game either.
I’m curious to see what it is – Bethesda’s parent company, Zenimax, recently bought id Software, so chances are it could be a Bethesda/id type of game along the lines of Brink. I guess we’ll find out within a month or so.
After completing the previous 4 Fallout expansions (Operation Anchoarge, The Pitt, Broken Steel, and Point Lookout), I decided that I may as well pick up Mothership Zeta since it is rumored to be the final Fallout DLC before the next game comes out next year.
After playing for about an hour or two, the Health Stations (used instead of Stimpacks) didn’t work when my character ran through them. I thought that maybe this particular station was broken so I ignored it and progressed to the next one. However, when that station didn’t work either, I decided that reloading the game to an earlier point should fix the problem.
All of you that have grand delusions of being taken aboard an alien cruiser and being probed anally will get to relive those fantasies in the upcoming Mothership Zeta expansion for Fallout 3. For 800 space bucks, you’ll be able to board the alien ship and fight your way to the bridge in order the save yourself and humanity. PS3 users will have to wait a while.
I was a bit worried how this alien expansion would fit into Fallout 3, but it looks like it just might work out pretty well. If you want to see all the bulbous alien heads, hit the jump for more screens.
Coming Soon!
