DAWGIE, amazed by all of this news . . . .

Most of those are add ons for Fallout 3, they expand the vanilla game but do not run on their own....... Operation Anchorage is a Outcast bunker housing a computer simulation of the battle of Anchorage, Alaska. Broken Steel.....added extra content and allowed you to continue your character past the main quest's ending. The Pitt (Pittsburgh) is a self contained city (well more of a small fortified town, within the ruins of Pittsburgh) Point Lookout is another self contained area with TOUGH enemies you travel to by boat. Mothership Zeta sees your character abducted by aliens... Fallout Las Vegas is a totally new game, using the same game engine. Edited by Earl of the North, Nov 2 2009, 09:45 AM.

Fallout Las Vegas is due out next year (sometime, maybe) and is supposed to be a totally new game, new characters etc, set unsurprisingly around Las Vegas. Strangely since Bethesda is getting another games company to produce the game (Bethesda will then publish it), it isn't offically Fallout 4. Edited by Earl of the North, Nov 2 2009, 05:15 PM.
