Have you been wondering the Mojave wasteland for days with nothing new to do? Have you grown tired of shooting arms off the charming citizens and delightful wildlife? Do you yearn for new adventures in unexplored terrain that teems with possibilities and radiation? Well then you’ll have to wait until December because that’s when the first load of DLC will arrive.
Oh yes, it’s also “exclusive†to Xbox Live. Surprised? Really? Thought not. The content is called Dead Money and it arrives on Xbox Live on 21 December for 800 MS points – how festive!
In Dead Money, your character gets captured with three other wastelanders. You and your new friends will then be forced into finding the lost treasure of the Sierra Madre Casino. The DLC promises new enemies to mutilate! New terrain to explore! And new choices to briefly deliberate over before realising that it’s just a game and you can totally quicksave whenever you want.
Of course, this whole notion of “exclusivity†to the Xbox 360 is a minor nuisance to some people. All that it really means is that you’ll have to exhibit some patience; the DLC will eventually arrive on other platforms. If it doesn’t then I’ll send you all an internet cookie to say sorry.

Wasn’t the PS3 version of New Vegas substantially buggier than the xbox version?

OMFG What is the deal with xbox and their massive ego for exclusive dlc why dosent the dlc come out on all platforms at the same time it would make things much easier for gamers and would also save alot of stress with gaming population!!!!!

I think you typed “massive ego for” instead of “need to generate profits seeing as they are a business and all so they secured…”
And I have spotted this wonderful trend where people are getting very upset when the other platform gets exclusive DLC, but when its theirs, no problemo.

For Example, a comment taken from out post about Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood getting exclusive DLC:
“Oh wow and PS3 only owners didnt have to pay for PSN to get this exclusive and Sony didnt have to use this as an excuse to justify a hypothetical increase in paying for PSN. Pretty neat that”
Yep… complain when its not yours, rub it in everyone else’s face when it is. From the comment above it seems totally obvious to me now that when PSN gets exclusive DLC its because the developer thought that Sony were just so gosh-darn awesome. When MS gets it, it’s because they are stupid money hungry bastards that want nothing more than to make everyone suffer.
Its business folks, thats just how it goes.

you sure do get cranky in the early mornings hey!
and it sounds a lot like you defending exclusives on the grounds of business, albeit timed in this case.
flip flop much?

Lol @d4rkling, you ps3 people sure do like playing the waiting game, I think delays, much like COD is to X360, are best played on PS3. Sony should make that announcement yes?

Ok well when you put it lyk tht i do suppose you are right but back to the fallout DLC its on all the mayjoy platforms so it would be easier if it did just come out on all of them at the same time and im sure some xboxers wuld agree with me.
