Fallout 3 locations

General information
Without add-ons, there are 163 marked locations in Fallout 3 provided you have the Lawbringer perk; without it there are only 162 as the Regulator HQ is not available. With Operation: Anchorage, The Pitt, Broken Steel, Point Lookout, and Mothership Zeta there are 10 more marked locations in the Wasteland and another 52 on separate world maps, coming to a grand total of 225 marked locations (224 without Lawbringer). Only 221 (220 without Lawbringer) of these will be shown as "discovered locations" in the Pip-Boy 3000 though.
