Friday (28) the second DLC fallout 3 retail disc comes out here.
(broken steel& point lookout)

I got 1000 points and played fallout 3 from front to back.
I recently discovered the first dlc disc and am playing it right now.
(operation anchorage and the pitt)

Ill buy the second add on disc but...
Why would people buy DLC when they can get a retail disc?
You payed to much for the download if you can get a retail disc for the same price.
Thinking about it..............

What is going to be sold more the DLC or the retail disc?
I had a hard time tracking a copy down by the way.
You can buy 1 from the internet but in the shops is another story.
Rare xbox 360 disc for the future or what?

What do you people think and buy?
DLC or retail disc?

In this case(and most others), the retail disc is out long after the DLC was available.

The discs are for those who don't have net access.

Might be hard to find in the Netherlands, but they're everywhere in the US.

I know they released the first four DLC items on two separate releases. It kind of aggrivates me that in order to own Mothership Zeta; it looks like I'll have to buy the GOTY edition as Bethesda has already said they have no plans to release Mothership as a separate disc. If they released all 5 as a retail release, I'd buy it in a hearbeat until that (un)likely day I'll just stay with the main release unless I can sell it and use that towards part the GOTY edition.

I assumed there would be a GotY edition just like Morrowind and Oblivion, so I never purchased it in hopes of that.

Me too. I'm a patient guy.
