Fallout 3 DLC and Games For Windows Live Woes 121
A reader writes with news that the Operation Anchorage downloadable content for Fallout 3 has been released. Rock, Paper, Shotgun details the extensive difficulties encountered by users of Games for Windows Live while trying to locate and install the new content. This is the first in a series of three DLC releases, and they are exclusive to the PC and Xbox 360. The last, Broken Steel, will allow players to continue within the game once the main story is finished. Unfortunately, Bethesda apparently doesn't plan to patch that ability into the PS3 version.

This is the last goddamn time:
Make sure that hidden files are shown in Windows Explorer, check the settings!
Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Xlive\DLC
Vista:
C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Microsoft\XLive\DLC
Copy the files to:
C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Fallout 3\Data (change the drive letter if necessary)
You have to use the launcher to select the mod: click on "DATA FILES" and check the box next to Anchorage.esm.

And yes, I agree that something as simple as posting a comment on /. can be trying on occasion.
