14 DAY TRIAL // Without a doubt, one of the best games of last year was Bethesda's Fallout 3 post apocalyptic role playing game, the newest in the prestigious franchise. Telling players a huge story and letting them decide almost everything about their unique experience, the title won over a lot of PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 fans.
But while the game appeared on all of those platforms, only PC and Xbox 360 users were able to enjoy new experiences, in the form of downloadable content. Fallout 3 has already received four new add-ons, as Operation Anchorage, The Pitt, Broken Steel and Point Lookout are already up and available for download. The last one, Mothership Zeta, will be launched for the two platforms soon.
This left PS3 owners quite upset, as they couldn't enjoy some of the benefits that these add-ons brought, like a new level cap or new main quests. But Bethesda promised that the DLC would be arriving on Sony's console this July, a promise that didn't come true, as the company now reveals that it has pushed back the launch of the new add-ons.
The production director at Bethesda, Ashley Cheng, declared on the PlayStation blog that the company was hoping to launch the most requested add-on, Broken Steel, at the end of September, after it had passed through all of the testing stages.
Players will enjoy Operation Anchorage and The Pitt shortly thereafter. Last but not least, Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta will be available for download. Because there is a lot of testing, the director declined to make any concrete predictions this time around and said that when these add-ons would be launched fans would certainly be happy.
Until then, PlayStation 3 players of Fallout 3 will still have to endure a level cap of 20 and a game that ends with the final main quest.
