Fallout New Vegas 'Old World Blues' DLC coming July 19
Fallout: New Vegas is getting its "Old World Blues" DLC on July 19, along with a title update for performance and stability improvements.
Fallout: New Vegas will be getting its next bit of downloadable content on July 19, Obsidian announced today. It's titled "Old World Blues," and will come to PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 simultaneously. The company also released a screenshot, showing off the wastelander's natural predator: robo-scorpions. Circle of life and all that.
The first piece of DLC, Dead Money, came to Xbox 360 first. Subsequent packs were planned to be simultaneous releases, but the PlayStation Network hack threw off those plans.
A new title update will be coming just before Old World Blues hits. It promises performance and stability improvements, which will hopefully iron out the remaining wrinkles. Past patches have improved performance for some users, but not all. As with so many Fallout patches and DLC releases, new bugs are prone to pop up, so we'll keep an eye out for any issues come mid-July.

While Obsidian makes some nice games, I wish they'd learn how to bloody fix them. Alpha Protocol had a ton of potential but was a technical train wreck. I found NWN2 to be totally FUBAR at launch. I remember I gave up on it after about a week or two and came back to it six to eight months later, at which point they seemed to have fixed most of the problems.
And now it looks like I'm going to be waiting on a GOTY version of NV.-

It was crippling to focus on any other weapons besides pistols or melee combat. Combine that with stealth and it was stupid to try for shotguns or machine guns.
Also I hated that once you progress every area, you're sealed in and you can't backtrack. I loved the idea of exploring each level and uncover hidden gadgets and shit but once you progress to the next checkpoint, that's it. you can't go back and you're fucked.
I played it (but didn't finish) it on the xbox 360 so the lack of save anywhere sucked.
I did love how AP did choices. A lot of choices I made (till I quit) really made me think. holy shit did I feel bad after certain ones!-
None of that backs up the above claim that it was a "technical trainwreck." You didn't like the game they made, but that's different from it being buggy.

all I did was answer on why I thought was "bad" about Alpha Protocol. /shrug.

WTF, robo scorpions? Are there not enough rad scorpions around to do the trick?

I am excited about this DLC, I have put off FONV for so long waiting for some great DLC addons like in FO3!
