Fallout DLC Pulled Due To Shoddiness

Shod-dy
-Adjective

1. Of poor quality or craft
2. Made of inferior materials
3. Full of fail

The second and most recent Fallout 3 DLC titled The Pitt has been pulled from the Xbox Live marketplace a mere day after its release. The decision was made due to many complaints of the download being full of game-breaking glitches such as freezing, mapping errors and boundary problems.

I personally have had no interaction with any Fallout DLC and so have not experienced the rage that many of the faultless gamers will have endured. The Pitt is priced at 800MS points ($10), and I for one like to have my content to be at least in a functioning form before I am charged for it. Fallout is already host to a plethora of smaller glitches, this is the last thing it needs.

The DLC is already up and ready for re-download. But if I were you, I’d wait and let other gamers be the testers. At least one Fallout wiki contributor (and, one assumes, avid Fallout fan) seems to be experiencing game freezing still.

Bethesda’s statement:

We are continuing to look into the issues people are experiencing with The Pitt for Xbox 360. As of now it looks like the file for the English version on Xbox Live was somehow corrupted. We are currently working with Microsoft to remove the existing file off of Live to prevent any further downloads. Our plan is to replace it with a new file as soon as possible. We hope to have another update for you shortly.

PS: One might say that The Pitt is… in the pits. Ho ho ho.
