Disappointingly, Fallout 3 didn't get its own "Horse Armor." Instead, it got some pretty solid expansion packs. If you missed out, here's your chance to pick 'em up -- they're now half off on Xbox LIVE Marketplace.
Until March 29, "Operation: Anchorage," "The Pitt," "Broken Steel," "Point Lookout," and "Mothership Zeta" are available for 400 Microsoft points. That's about five bucks a piece in human monies. The catch is that you must be an Xbox LIVE Gold member to get the discounts. Membership has its privileges, I guess.
For those of you who have played all of the expansion packs, if someone were to just buy one, which would you recommend?

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Thats quite a bargain though, half off anything is always good. Though I would of liked some Dog Armor :-)
I'll just go back to surpassing my 600 hour mark on oblivion. Now there's a game with replayability. Shame Bethesda are paying less attention to the Elder Scrolls series now, You know, the series that gave them the money to actually MAKE fallout 3.
1. Broken Steel
2. Point Lookout
3. The Pitt
4. Operation: Anchorage (Winterized Power Armor = Awesome)
5. Mothership Zeta (the first 20 minutes are great, until you realize you are just shooting aliens for like 5 hours).
But yeah, I'd get them in that order, meself.
Though after I finished the game with my second character (which included doing The Pitt and Anchorage with this same second character), I restarted the DLC with Broken Steel using my original character. I went through the motions of doing Anchorage with this character but ultimately ended up killing everyone in the Brotherhood of Steel Outcasts since their armor is so freaking cool looking compared to the blue/silver armor that the other BoS soldiers wear.
If you get Anchorage you can do that first, AND get access to the Heavy Armour perk REALLY early. Oh, and a Gauss Rifle, which when aimed manually is a one hit kill most of the time (and some really cool tech that when stored for later use will come in so frikkin handy).
Just don't get Mothership Zeta, Seriously.
The Pitt has an awesome massive steel factory and refinery to explore, but there's not as much reason to go back once you've cleared the main quest and all the sidequests. Though, if you're a melee specialist, it's totally worth it for the new weapons alone.
I'd say go with The Pitt if you're a survival horror fan, and go with Point Lookout if you really love exploring the Wasteland and want a change of pace.
nerts.
1. Broken Steel (boosts the level to 30, plus any scenes involving Liberty Prime were more than worth it)
2. Point Lookout (started off slow, but the 'main' story in this was fresh and really interesting, especially Desmond)
3. The Pitt (not played yet, I watched my friend collect ingots (sp?) for 3 days for an achievement, not really my thing)
4. Operation: Anchorage (agree with Shadowiii that Winterized Power Armor = Awesome, also the armour doesn't need repairing, very useful for wandering around Point Lookout miles from anywhere)
5. Mothership Zeta (again I agree, the first 20 minutes were great, aside from giving you the ability to repair weapons when you like (with the alien items) there wasn't really anything in this that felt new or threatening. I felt like there should have been more to find, or at the least some kind of easter eggs but it didn't live up to my expectations).
broken steel because of the level cap.
the pit for the silenced/scoped/assault rifle that shoots two round bursts instead of 3... better criticals makes this gun instant death.
anchorage for the chinese stealth armor that works like a steath boy any-time you crouch!
zeta because shooting aliens is hilarious... plus the additional xp get to 30 and the ammunition for the firelance.
@ NiNfan - STFUGO
I completely agree, I played oblivion for about 3 hours and was really bored. I was initially reluctant to get fallout but I'm glad I did as it was one of my favorite games 100+ hours and counting
However, in terms of raw content, I'll stick with the first two I mentioned (Broken Steel and Point Lookout). They offer the most bang for your buck.
Don't buy Mothership Zeta. Just watch the fantastic trailer like 10 times, and you'll essentially have a better experience.
That's too bad, I really wanted to finish off my DLC set.
thanks once again ms
You can just buy them off xbox.com. Any marketplace items can be bought there and just downloaded to the 360 later.
Or are you just being a fanboy?
I think it's all a matter of which you played first though. I played Fallout 3 first, and my friend who played Oblivion first didn't like Fallout 3.
1. Broken Steel (playing past the end is awesome, as is the level cap)
2. Point Lookout
3. The Pitt
4. Operation Anchorage
Can't comment on Mothership Zeta as I don't have it, but I may get it now since it'll be $5
All the packs were overpriced so I'm glad I only paid for two of them.
