If there was one glaring omission from Fallout 3, it was the overwhelming lack of ninjas.

Bethesda must have realized they dropped the ball big time on that one as the game's first downloadable content -- dubbed "Operation Anchorage" and scheduled for release sometime this month -- features the feared shadow warriors, if this latest batch of screenshots from the firm are any indication.

I realize that's some faction of the Chinese communist military force up there, but did anyone else immediately flashback to the encounter with Grey Fox in the original Metal Gear Solid on seeing that top screenshot?

It would be ludicrous to hope that every game henceforth released on the PlayStation 3 somehow contractually ties into Solid Snake's universe, but I'd pay good money to see Raiden slaughter a squad of Super Mutants.

Many more screens at the official Fallout 3 home page (via Kotaku).
