I plan on getting both of these as soon as the PSN store comes back, so i was wondering which of the 2 dlc's you guys think I should do first? Both look fun to me, but do you guys have any suggestions?

I actualy liked DM. some people hate it with the passion of a thousand burning suns and would like to do painfull things to the developers of it but meh.

basicaly it boils down to If you would wrather have

~300,000 caps worth of gold and a B.A.R. clone

or

.45 caliber Goodness and a carbine that is aparently inspired by the real world .50 cal pistile carbines

hmm, well i'll probably do DM first because it came out first. And i think the only thing i'll hate about DM is the fact that i have to beat it before I can do HH, lol. It'd be the same if i chose HH first though, lol

Definately Do DM first...
This DLC is a Blast.
Pro :
Interesting Companions
Much Talking
A Casino Heist (with up to 37 Gold Bars to Collect)
A own Vending Machine
Bucket Loads of Sierra Madre Chips every 3 Days. (win 7000 chips in the SM casino)
and much more

Negatives :
Sometimes you feel like a mouse in a mace (but this was intended)
TBH, most of the things that were annoying for most reviewers are the Key Elements for DM

OBSIDIAN created something special here,
and THEYHAVE DELIVERED BIG TIME. (for me)

If you're more of a thinker or a slow-and-steady stealth type and don't prefer just running in and shooting, you'll love Dead Money. It requires a certain amount of cunning to complete without dying, which is what you should definitely try doing. If you play it with a trial-and-error style, blindly running in, letting your head explode as a way to let you pinpoint the radios, you'll hate it. Use your ears, use logical thinking, use the process of elimination. There was literally a point in Dead Money where I recognized a three-way path where the connecting part for all three paths would start making your collar beep. I'd gone around this thing and then later recognized that I'd been to this crossing from two different sides,, and thus deduced that the third path must be the one containing the radio. I was correct, was able to destroy the radio without dying, and then I was able to loot the building.
There's also a level of scavenging involved. All the corners of the map hide something, you just have to look. Use every resource you can get. It's the right level of difficulty, imo.


Honest Hearts has yet to be thoroughly played, but it sounds more like an exploration-based DLC with a rather limited main quest line and story. If that sounds more like your thing, start with that.
