My first run through of simply fallout 3 was great. The open landscapes of a destroyed planet was quite sobering. I had recently played oblivion and it was very similar in game concepts, but I loved that game as well. Initially the game is fantastic, challenging as you have little gear or weapons and a super mutant can rip your head off; however, just like oblivion if you are smart about your leveling, get your decent gear the game expeirience begins to wane. My gripe to both oblivion and fallout 3 is that once you're leveled and geared the end game content honestly wasn't that hard and that's just with standard weapons not even the unique upgrades. Thus the add on content honestly was a breeze through without even using cheap tactics. The problem lies in Bethesda's difficulty bar. I would like to see set difficulties. If i run through on normal, I want to see a separate higher difficulty now open after. Yes I could move the bar up on the difficulty but it just doesn't seem quite the same to say I conquered fallout on normal + 23% difficulty. While this does seem nit picky the lack of difficulty with the 30 level cap does detract from the DLC content; however, it is overall a fun addition to one of the better XBOX 360 games around. I would still recommend if you enojoyed fallout 3 giving these a try.
