Fallout 3 DLC Now Available Through Steam

The five DLC packs for Fallout 3, previously only available a la carte through Games for Windows LIVE on the PC, are now available on Steam for $9.99 a pop.

The Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition, which includes all five add-on packs, has been available since October 2009, but now gamers that purchased the original release on Steam can get in on the DLC love. It is also available on Direct2Drive, if that's more your flavor.

• Fallout 3: GOTY Edition - $49.99

• Operation Anchorage - $9.99

• The Pitt - $9.99

• Broken Steel - $9.99

• Point Lookout - $9.99

• Mothership Zeta - $9.99

If you're wondering where to start, Broken Steel is a must-have as it takes the story beyond the ending of Fallout 3 and raises the level cap. Point Lookout is widely considered to be one of the best DLC add-ons and I had a good time with The Pitt. Operation Anchorage and Mothership Zeta aren't as great, but have some good items to grab.
