Looks like the DLC will be released for download online but when it comes out I want a hard copy of it. Will they be selling them in stores?

Unfortunatly no, it will be available PSN, Direct2Drive, and Steam. Wish they would sell hard copy though :P

If it's any consolation, GOTY edition (if there's ever one) will most likely have all DLC's in it.

They'll have hard copies of it, especially once GOTY hits shelves after they come out with atleast 2-3 more DLC's. Can't have all DLC on a CD. (Look back at Oblivion, 2 DLC+ and yet still 4 more or less others to buy seperate).

But no if you get a new console or a new harddrive you can still redeem the download through your Xbox Live account. Giving you remember the information of the account to get it back. Since remember? Once you redeem a download on Live on your account you can repeat that download as much as you need to. :)

Gorram... I should probably mention that in Gamestop you can buy the DLC for most high end games (Call of Duty, Halo, Fallout, etc) on cards in-store. You just buy the card and it has the DLC code on it so you can use that code on the card to automatically download and redeem your content.

They don't even sell hard copies of New Vegas so I doubt it.

I think "online price only" means that it's the price you pay online instead of in the store. The product itself is on a disc.

I'm aware I'm not supposed to do links so you can delete this post right after doing so - but here:

I don't own the game on the computer, but I believe that's a real physical copy of it for the PC. Also this DLC is about the Xbox version of the game and PS3 I assume, but it's okay.

I thought they dropped support for games for windows? I heard from several on here that its Steamworks only? Which is why Microsoft didn't let the PC players get the Dead Money the same Time as Xbox players becasue they were mad about that. I could be wrong but that's what I heard. In any case I have the Steam version becasue I love Steam.

The pc disc was a GFW (Games for Windows) not a GFWL (Games for Windows Live). That is probably where your confusion is. :)

I remember seeing Anchorage and The Pitt in a combo DLC pack at Walmart, and I think Broken Steel had one as well as Point Lookout and Zeta being in a combo too. My guess is when the second DLC comes out there will be a hard disk copy on sale that has Dead Money along with the second DLC combined.

Plus there is always Vegas' GOTY when it comes out.
