    This dlc is so crazy, it makes me love it. Aliens kidnapping people? Toshiro samurai? Count me in. It's short, but fun. Pickens approves!

    One of the best DLC for F3. Nice Graphics and a cool Story.

    One of the best games to the series and an All-time Classic. Also, the last Decent Fallout Game!

    The shortest of all the DLC, but that doesn't mean it it does't deliver the satisfaction. It's just like a White Castle Burger, it's small, cheap, and doesn't last long. But it's still enjoyable. (If you like sliders) The game provides you with a interesting and adventuress storyline with aliens and conspiracy around every corner.

The new weapons and items are a must have for a Fallout fanboy. Overall, it's a great new episode for Fallout 3.… Expand

    Aliens, cowboys, robots, zombies (sorta), and samurais are included and do spice up the experience, but if you really want to crank up the craziness, Bethesda, we'll need some pirates and vikings, too.

    Mothership Zeta is a let down. It's nowhere near as good as Point Lookout or The Pitt. It's slightly better than Operation Anchorage, but only slightly. It's a linear, repetitive slog through an alien space ship and nothing else. Is it a fitting finale? No. Is it worth 800MS Points? Just. If only for the Samurai Armour. Sniff.

    Design flaws include a bizarre decision to cordon off most of the ship after completion, locking away any unique items you previously overlooked. Much of the game commendably favours stealth players but the rest can feel shambolic.
