@ptflea1:
So it's not just me. Thanks for clearing that up.
I've tried watching the video review in both my Firefox browser (with AdBlock and NoScript active) and in my vanilla Internet Explorer browser... IE ran the commercial before the video, but the "Pirates" video review itself never played in either browser.

Edited By Mann_Slaughter

I've played through FO, and FO:NV on PC several times over the years, but this is the first time I've tried any of the NV DLC.

I'd played through all the addons for FO, and finally got around to playing "Point Lookout". I finally finished it after growing frustrated with the completely overpowered enemies! I played "FO:NV - Dead Money" next because I'd heard that it was the best DLC ever...

WRONG!

The enemies in "Dead Money" are still overpowered, but they have the added frustration of resurrecting if you don't dismember them! Add to that the inability to free travel, the confusing layout of the maps, and the "Take this helper over there because they're the only one who can flip this switch" missions make this DLC aggravating in the extreme!

I've FINALLY made it inside the casino, and finished the last mission only to find myself trapped trying to navigate the twists and turns in the basement in a futile attempt escape before my bomb collar goes off! It's bad enough the terrible layout, and the poor Pipboy map, but add to that the broken stairs that require you to jump, and doorways with shimmering transparent shower curtains that won't let you through... I've died 10-15 times just trying to get out of this place and back to New Vegas!

As another reviewer said: "Worst DLC ever!"
