You could download and add them but you can always resist playing them. Anchorage is activated through responding through a radio call, The Pitt is just added on to the very edge of the game map and still needs to be activated through a stranger waiting at the train entrance, Broken Steel is activated through a radio call, and so forth. So you could ignore these entirely and play the game through.

That's Broken Steel you're referring to. You will still get the same ending depending on which path you take, but after the final cinema and not to reveal too much, you continue the game. So, play as you normally would.

If you're wanting to get trophies/achievements, don't do the stupid thing I did and wait to get the bobblehead at Rockopolis, otherwise later it will be blocked by an impasse. That was the only one I needed to get the achievement and I'll be damned if I am going to go through the entire game again to get it.

Hah, I see. I'll play it vanilla then and add on the rest later, thanks.

I was playing Sims 3 last night
I bought it the day of release, yet I haven't played it for more than 3 hours...
anyway, I realized I have no idea, when you're playing in a family
how to leave the lot and go back to the town.
So I just saved and quit the game.

My first game in 5 years...

Braid.

A nice way to blow ~15 hours.

I'm stuck at the end. Saving it for a rainy day.

Absolutely awesome game. It is definitely tricky- I hate to admit it, but I had to resort to youtube to complete a couple levels.

I disagree, there are certain perks each expansion experience can get you and experience points being as valuable as they are (my first run through of the game only got me to lvl 26, with no more big missions to complete... not worth it to go searching for raiders and mole rats for points).

I say download them and play them when you are breaking from the main story to do side quests.

Ive been playing the new release, Point Lookout, for the last couple of days. I have reached my breaking point from these retard-strength hicks.

also, I'm trying my damned hardest to stay neutral during this, my second, run through but no matter how many things I steal and scavengers I kill for their shit, I am always very good. I'm bad at this

Spring. Or more specifically, the Balanced Annihilation and Extreme Annihilation Total Annihilation mods for Spring.




You're basically playing different versions of TA, but with new units and ways to play... in 3D! This thing fucking rocks. The multiplayer client is cool too.

Did I mention it's free?
The Spring Project

Btw Standardman... nice pick on Zeno Clash! Weird game, but pretty cool nonetheless.
