  • Summary: [Downloadable Content] Pittsburgh was once the industrial center of the pre-war world. The city was spared the horrors of nuclear fire, only to have its people infected by a nightmare plague of disease, infection, and mutation. Travel to the ruins of this industrial city, now called The Pitt, and discover a secret that could send shockwaves through the entire Wasteland. Battle vicious mutated Trogs, employ deadly new weapons like the AutoAxe and Infiltrator silenced assault rifle, and decide the fate of the infected slaves and slavers that call this city home.

    I had a great time with The Pitt, and it single-handedly reinvigorated my interest in Bethesda's masterpiece. It's what DLC should be: good value, interesting, exciting and a concentration of what is best about the game it's expanding upon.

    One of the more powerful story based quests we have seen out of the Fallout 3 experience it makes me wonder how great the third and potentially final expansion, called Broken Steel, will be for this epic game. Must buy for all Fallout 3 owners (well PC and 360 owners) and is easily worth every penny.

    It's still not particularly polished, however, as I experienced a couple of crashes and some audio glitches with character speech, but other than that this is a fairly solid expansion that captures what makes Fallout 3 so good.

    Fallout 3 may be the best game ever made. The DLC can not be judged alone. It must be graded on it's contribution to the game(unlike multi-player, which I think should be graded seperately since it has nothing to do with the game) it is being added to. In this respect The Pitt is another home run in an extra inning.… Expand

    The third dlc I have played out of five in Fallout 3. This was an okay dlc that had a good story line and the first dlc that I have played that you can wander freely around. But the weapons are not very good in this dlc and was way too short. But after you complete the story you can go out looking for 100 steel ingots which is very annoying to find them all. The Pitt is really for people who want more fallout 3. Fallout 3 The Pitt 6.5/10… Expand

    I came into this expansion wanting to like it. The game play was fun, and the area was novel, however, this is the buggiest load I have every played in an established franchise. The first time I had to redo the entire bloody thing was because the speech messed up and I was trapped in a cut scene I could not escape. The second time I had to redo the whole bloody thing was when my gear never returned and I had to reload from before I went to The Pitt so i could stash all my gear, The third time I had to redo the whole bloody thing was RIGHT when I was about to collect the last of those damned ingots and I got stuck in a place that counted me as "falling" so I could not fast travel out. First time through was fun, second time was ok, having to play through 4 times because Bethesda rushed it out? Bad form.… Expand
