Oh those tricksters. I learned my lesson many moons ago. Wait for the GoTY edition.

Anybody got any input on the Vegas DLC? Because i'm probably going to buy one, just wondering which one's the best.

Oh, and if you're going to buy one of the fallout 3 DLC, get broken steel. It's by far the best.

@Cutty17 Old World Blues, hands down. The characters in Dead Money are really interesting, but the environment is repetitive. They're all really short.

Yeah, nice to hear a bunch of Venture Brothers voice talent in that expansion! All the damn dogs you have to fight make my slow-moving energy weapons pretty annoying though.

That's what I was doing. Seems to be taking a while compared to fallout 3.

There's supposedly a leaked list of Xbox Live chrismas sale. Ive seen that list, and I have to say, Im not impressed.

It's from a website in Germany, I don't think it's real, and even if it is, I don't know if it will be the same for US.

But if it is, man we're looking at a DLC-fest.

I will find the link shortly.

@tylerh1701 If it turns out to be true, Forza 4 and Gears 3 would be surprising since they are relatively new.

@MisterEFQ In 2 months Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition comes out on disk. I'd wait for that and have a hard copy.

Stuff like this puts what passes as sales on consoles in stark perspective. Spending the last few days poring through various PC gaming sales, sales like this just don't register as any kind of deals at all.

Last month I got Fallout: New Vegas AND all of its DLC for under $15 on Steam.

I'm not saying this to rip on consoles, as I still do most of my gaming on them, but it really is amazing how much better deals you can get on the PC once you make the initial investment of a decent rig.

Tell me about it...just crushing the Steam sales right now. Arkham City w all DLC (didnt bother w skins pack) for $35. Solid!

And my rig is pretty old...core2duo e6600, 4gb ram, gtx 260. Plays Skyrim w high settings and decent framerates.

Gamestop has Dead Island on sale for $25...360 & PS3 definitely. I think PC too. Picked up 360 copy today.

Seriously. Until digital console stores start getting aggressive with their pricing they simply won't be able to compete with Steam. Until they can I'm going to stick with physical copies, where the prices actually tend to be a little more competitive.

My Ranking:

#1 - Lonesome Road - Compelling story, good player development, challenging fights, some good spooky moments, great new weapons and upgrades to riot gear. Less of an open world romp and more of a driven story

#2 - Old World Blues - zany, challenging, large open map, powerful character upgrades including armor and weapons with lots of personality

#3 - Dead Money - challenging if frustrating, compelling NPCs, not much in upgrades but lots and lots of cash to be had.

#4 - Lonesome Hearts - Lots of money to be made off high end weapons, decent scripted events but hard to get invested with the main characters. Some good weapon additions, good new food receipes.

Order to play them: Honest Hearts, Old World Blues, Dead Money and finally Loneseome Road

Also don't forget Gun Runners Arsenal. Lots more guns, lots more mods, all around good stuff.

Sold! I needed 2 for New Vegas and had 2 beforehand. That said, I wish my game would stop crashing -- especially at the end level.

I bought MS Points this morning and bought 3/4 of the DLC. Had the first DLC for awhile now. Might as well buy it now and regret not getting it later.
