Electronic Theatre offers an in-depth analysis of FallOut 3's first downloadable expansion, FallOut 3: Operation Anchorage, released yesterday in most territories.

The area in which most of the Downloadable Content takes place is actually referred to by the game as a “simulation”, akin to that of Tranquility Lane, though obviously considerably more expansive. Players of a certain taste will no doubt recall an episode of classic British Sitcom Red Dwarf when finding themselves accepting the Outcast’s request, and the rules of balancing life-and-death remain here as in that particular episode – you die in the simulation, you die in reality. Of course, this being a effectively a videogame within a videogame, here it is simply maintaining the laws established by the disc-based offering.
