    So basically all the addons are half price. I suppose that’s not bad to anyone that dosen’t have them or the GoTY.

  • MathGuy42

    Good deal for those with Fallout 3, though a rerun from December. I was hoping for another surprise addition like last week, in particular Halo Wars DLC.

    Marathon Durandal (and its DLC) is deserving of a DotW, IMO. Great game that undersold due to motion sickness. The porters mistakenly increased the field of vision. A patch later fixed it by allowing you to turn on Classic View. But by that time, the damage had been done. I already have this game and DLC, but would like others to enjoy it as well.

    I wouldn’t mind a rerun of Braid, selfishly.

  • Kroesis

    I was waiting for this, I can now basically get the 2 addons I have yet to get for the usual price of one!

  • Anonymous

    Looks like a great deal, but I don’t have Fallout 3 anymore. Definitely good for other people though!

  • MACPH1ST0

    Fantastic deal, but I already took advantage of this back when it was up during Christmas time. Surely there’s enough content to discount by now to avoid repeating deals like this, right?

  • simon zephyr

    I got the game of year edition for 49.99 before christmas new

  • m la taupe

    Not available in France.
    Does this mean that France is not getting any Deal Of The Week this week?
    Way to promote Gold member subscription.

  • SketchyPederson

    I’ve been itching like mad to finally get Fallout 3, perhaps now is the time.

  • Sausage Villan

    great another item that i bought ages ago … i mean for those who couldn’t afford them at the time i guess this is good … perhaps you can promise another chance at the premium theme for those who buy them all this time and then you can not deliver it like last time

  • Kroesis

    Well personally, I was on deployment when this deal came round first time so I’m quite happy that it’s come around again.

  • I DLord I

    @ SketchyPederson

    If you do not own Fallout 3 yet, buy the GotY edition. It is $49.99 and has all the DLC on disc. You won’t eat up hard drive space as well. And on a side note, what took you so long?

  • MathGuy42

    Kroesis, thank you for your service!

  • SilentHunter382

    @I DLord I

    The GOTY edition comes with 2 discs. The second disc has all the DLC on it which is installed to your hard drive. It’s like the shivering Isles disc. So it doesn’t matter what way SketchyPederson gets the dlc because s/he has to still install them to the hard drive.

  • metallicorphan

    i have them all already,however on my other gamertag(same console) it only recognises that i have 2 of them,i have to wait until April to transfer my current licenses across to this current 360 and hope that that works,and then i am hoping it will recognise all 5

  • L0rN

    @metallicorphan

    Just sign in the gamertag which purchased the content on the second controller and you can play it with the profile on controller 1 which didn`t purchase it. Sometimes it`s “quite” simple. I had the same problem and was very happy to play all the arcade titles i purchased with another profile on a new Xbox, because someone gave me this advice. ;) Have fun.

  • aStrangeDisease

    Off topic: Why do people have more than one account? I can’t think of a reason why somebody would want 2.

  • moocow21

    Why not discount the DLC on the Games for Windows Live version as well?

  • L0rN

    @strange disease
    In my case:
    -girlfriend (or someone else) playing on same Box
    -I was in another country for 3 Years

  • I DLord I

    @SilentHunter382

    Well that is unfortunate. I guess soon you can just throw them on a USB, eh?

  • ElektroDragon

    Isn’t this the THIRD time these have been on sale?? Enough already!

  • DanMW

    The Pitt and Point Lookout purchased, had Broken Steel from the previous offer, that’s all the Fallout 3 DLC I need/want. Thanks, new cracking deals next week please.

  • zfair899

    This deal = good

    Anyone who hasn’t any of the DLC packs should definitely check out Broken Steel and Point Lookout. The rest are a bit meh

  • XenoLair

    Interesting. I already bought broken steel on launch day and I’m probably gonna get mothership zeta now.

  • Z4M0

    Nice deal but already got from Christmas time. Should complementary no rerun deal be added as well when this happens.

  • My Big Boss

    GOD those not have Fallout 3, oh why GOD.

  • WinterSnowblind

    Since I’ve been critisizing the past few deals, I feel I should point out that this is the type of stuff I’d like to see more often and hopefully the sales of this agree with me in comparasion to the 20 points off a Tiger Woods map pack..

  • BrooksterMax

    As above, more multiple deals very welcome. Although this one is not particularly new as it was used December – albeit for 24 hours if I recall.

    (Can we have some more Arcade hits please)

  • wolfzero01

    not a bad deal, but at this point I imagine that there’s not to many people who either haven’t bought these yet or gotten the GOTY edition.

  • metallicorphan

    @LOrN- i will give that a go,thanks for the tip

  • Exu

    We’ve had this deal before, and the GOTY is still cheaper than these put these together if you look around.

  • LawdaddyCO

    Lame.

  • Velete

    So this is like the 4th time they have ran this promo, talk about lazy :/

    Their are so many old arcade games that no one ever downloads or plays anymore that could really do with a price cut…

    This isnt much of a deal anyway, its still cheaper to buy the fallout 3 GOTY edition which comes with all the addons than buy the 5 expansions at half price ( even if you already own the base game )

    Simpler solution – borrow disc2 of the GOTY from a friend, install the DLC, give the disc back – no need to pay for the slow XBL download thats console-locked…

  • Nitramuse

    BTW, aren’t you supposed to get a free premium theme when you’ve bought all of the DLC’s? I’m sure I remembered that…=|

  • Adgalo

    I was going to buy today the ones I didn’t have yet, Broken Steel and Point Lookout, but right now they have a 800 mspoints tag. Why? The week hasn’t ended yet…

  • Burkazoid

    Yes, why have Broken Steel and Point Lookout gone up to 800msp before 29/3?

  • Burkazoid

    Oops, I mean Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta (which is the only one I have left to get and want to get it in the sale).

  • discostuu

    @Burkazoid. i had that problem, too. It was 400 points when I tried to buy it late last night. I kept getting an error message that said to try back later. When I tried again later, the price had gone back up to 800 points. What gives?

  • VytautasGoods

    MOTHERSHIP ZETA and POINT LOOKOUT each 800 points.FIX IT!!!

  • OHG dirt

    Mothership Zeta was showing up as costing 800 points at the link provided in the post. It showed up as the correct 400 points when logged in to xbox live via my xbox though.

  • Adgalo

    Yeah, they fixed the price yesterday.
