Hey kids. If you’ve got the Xbox 360 version of Fallout 3, you can now log on to Xbox Live and shell out 800 Microsoft Points for the latest DLC pack, The Pitt. Fallout 3’s second downloadable content pack features you roaming the streets of Pittsburgh, fighting through nuclear fallout, fires and plenty of diseased mutants. It sounds perfect for those of you who were getting bored with the game. Now go be a good boy and give Microsoft and Bethesda your hard earned cash.
According to Billboard, the ever-popular Rock Band is due to get “as many as 5000″ new tracks this year via downloadable content. The report comes as I completed “…And Justice For All” on Expert at 100% last night. Harmonix has already released over 500 songs for the Rock Band series, putting it way above the number of tracks Guitar Hero: World Tour offers. But for Harmonix to meet the 5000 mark, it would need to release over 90 tracks each week for the rest of the year.
I don’t really see that happening, but hey, 2000 new songs is perfectly OK with me. Just stop charging $1.99 for a fuckin’ song!
Sure, downloadable content for Fallout 3 was announced, but what about the juicy details? You’ve heard of Operation Anchorage, the first of three DLC packs Bethesda plans on releasing, yet the other two have been kept pretty hush hush. Bethesda reveals the third DLC pack, Broken Steel, after the jump.

Already Bethesda is announcing details of its first plans for Fallout 3 downloadable content for both the PC and Xbox 360 (Sorry PS3 owners!) In addition to the expansion, Bethesda is also throwing in the long-awaited dev kit for PC users. Named the G.E.C.K. (Garden of Eden Creation) kit, this will allow players to mod the game and come up their own additions where they see fit. Hit the jump for the details.

Finally, a reason to give Mercenaries 2 some play time. The most mediocre game, ever, gets a spice of color and “maverickism,” with the ability to take both Sarah Palin and Barack Obama into the field of battle. Hijack tanks, blow up choppers and even slaughter civilians as your favorite Democratic or Republican presidential candidate.
Palin’s facial expressions denote a certain satisfaction when shooting guard dogs, while Barack Obama retains that smug look and calmness while carjacking a military vehicle. I wish a Joe Biden skin was available for download. He’s a bad ass politician I can support!
