Joe has lately been trying and failing to review the new downloadable expansion to Fallout 3, Operation Anchorage. It seems that Microsoft just doesn't want to let him though and is fighting back with every worthless inch of Games for Windows Live. Now Joe has had enough.

It is. Quite interesting that steam only has 13 people working on it, and he makes a good point about this being very appealing to torrent.

I was going to give it a go, since I rather like the main game and would've reported my own experiences, but given this: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/fallo ... age-review it doesn't seem worth it.

Basically they're removed all the good bits from the game - the corpse-looting, box-searching and other RPG elements and produced a rather mediocre shooter only a couple of hours long.

Oh, and just for the record, it turns out that not only is Operation Anchorage already on Torrent sites, but it’s easier to download when pirated too. Good job, Microsoft.

I hope this (and GTA4) get pirated to fuck, personally. Hopefully then the publishers will start to realise that they're doing more harm than good with all this crap they're putting on games recently.

Valve itself is 150 people tops and most of them can be assigned to multiple types of tasks (for example, some programmers may also design levels).
