Fallout 3 Operation Anchorage is out, fucking awesome

Xbox 360. Fallout 3. Asians. If these three things are relevant to your interests, I have some very good news for you: Operation Anchorage, in which it is your mission to save Alaska from the Chinese, was dropped onto the Xbox Live Marketplace at some point tonight and is now available for 800 bottle caps.
I would love to give out a glowing recommendation, but unfortunately, the version of Fallout 3 I’ve spent my money on is inarguably wrong… or not, as the expansion failed to garner too much acclaim, despite the warm welcome from many players. A shame really, I was almost going to trade my copy in after work — the more you know…
“But I will say that if my girlfriend were ever to find out that I’d spent seven quid out of our joint account on 150 minutes of gameplay that I only half-enjoyed, she’d kick me in the face. She wouldn’t even hesitate.”
— Will Porter, Fallout 3: Operation Anchorage Review, Eurogamer
I am not sure, if this is more telling about the quality of the game, or how emasculated Mr Porter seems to be. Also, keep in mind, this was only the first out of three expansions of the game, there is two yet to come, and the third, Broken Steel, will increase the level-cap to 30. Here’s hoping for a bundle.
