Skyrim DLC visual and PS3 hostility

Inentertainment: We’ve been waiting for what seems like an age for the upcoming Skyrim DLC so it was finally nice to get a visual treat, and while some gamers are happy it’s obvious that there is some hostility from PS3 users. The reason why is because the Xbox 360 has yet another timed exclusive with Dawnguard just like they do with new Call of Duty content, and it’s now starting to try the patience of PlayStation users

I dont mind waiting, ive already spent 200+ hours on Skyrim this year already, ill wait for the GOTY edition next year

Gettin ready to go see Prometheus

[danswayuk]

The extra month is not a big problem, although it is not good for gamers as a whole.

[NastyLeftHook0]

totally agree.

[StraightPath]

you want to go and tweet the

" gettin ready to go see prometheus "

part? like anyone cares what your getting ready to do.

[KwietStorm]

You want to attack the guy like what you said is any more relevant. And what are you talking about 'tweet'

I spent 40 hours...then I deleted the content, poured kerosene on my hard drive, and burnt it to dust

I learned my lesson with fallout 3. Always buy bethesda rpgs for xbox. Most of my time is spent on ps3 until recently with skyrim, ME3, & the witcher 2. But soon its back to ps3. The only downside is if it pushes into fall. Gamers would love to have this at the beginning of July and August.

i own a ps3 i dont mind every platform needs their exclusives i am a genuine fan of the industry so it does me right to see moves such as this.

[Skate-AK]

I think they need exclusive games not exclusive content.

[IIC0mPLeXII]

Ill trade all the timed DLC on 360 for Bethesda to work out all the bugs on there. Timed DLC < Amazing exclusives.

[nihonlight]

Not mad about DLC. I'm pissed that THEY KNOWINGLY SOLD US A BROKEN GAME.
All the ninroots,Louis letrush clones, say hi.

Agreed. After listening to Todd Howard say countless times that "both versions will be equal," I gagged a little every time I put Skyrim into my PS3.

What Bethesda did, again to the PS3, is just inexcusable. There are plenty of devs out there that manage just fine while developing for the PS3, so you can't blame the tech. It's your studio's fault, not the system's. Get it right next time, because I'm not buying on launch until I know it works.

And then this timed DLC business? Personally, I've never cared about timed DLC. But the fact that the PS3 users had to put up with so much jank from Bethesda and not receive a small treat is a little frustrating. I hope you're warm in Microsoft's bed Bethesda.

I blame Sony or more specifically Ken Kutaragi. PS3 came out a year later, all of its multiplats should have looked and ran better not struggle to be equal. Devs should have to spend extra time money to achieve parity.

It was a dumb move making it more complicated to develop for than necessary. The only good thing about it is that Sony learned their lesson.

@mochachino

Sorry, but as I said in my first post, I blame the devs. There are plenty of bug-free titles on the PS3. If the dev can't adapt to the hardware, admit it and warn people. Don't promise us that your game will run seamlessly when you KNOW good and well that it will not.

(Didn't disagree with you btw)

[Trenta27]

Why do so many people wait for the GOTY edition? What's wrong with spending a little money and enjoying a game?

[KwietStorm]

What's wrong with waiting for a better deal? Especially when the Dane studio makes a habit of shafting the same user base?

[Dark_Overlord]

Maybe because all the bugs are usually sorted and you also get all the DLC included, and that's for a cheaper price overall. Why wouldn't I wait?

[kuntryboy]

Still waiting on the GOTY edition myself... I do wish they wouldn't do this to PS3 fans though sucks they have to wait for the DLC. Haven't they paid enough waiting for patches to fix the game already?

[JAMurida]

More importantly, would PS3 people be more pissed about the technical issues that plagued the PS3 version? I trade my version back in before the patch that introduced the new killcams, so I don't know if they have been fixed or not, but I was still experiencing annoying menu lags, framerate drops and what not.

[mochachino]

People pay for Xbox Live so MS can pay for timed-exclusives that people otherwise would have had had they not paid for xbox Live the only difference is that PC and PS3 gamers would have gotten the content at the same time.

I pay for Live but I understand that all the "exclusives" are just MS throwing their weight around and depriving other gamers of content. Live doesn't fund any new DLC/content, it simply pays to delay others platform's release date which is lame imo.

[2v1]

the Goty edition is going to be xbox time exclusive too

[nihonlight]

I bet this dlc breaks the game.
After 1.5 (which they didn't test) crash crash freese

[belac09]

i sold my copy, i got tired of playing a broken game and then having to wait longer than the folks who got a fixed version of the game. ill never buy another bethesda game again.

[InTheLab]

Yes....be mad that XBox gamers get to beta test more broken DLC from Bethesda..

[braydox21]

no complaining about skyrim being a broken game, i have experianced glitches and freezes but you know what i got over it started a new game (2 out of 5 times the other three were due to alvor dying, and trying to create the ultimate character a pro in everything,
