Bethseda Promises Update On Fallout 3 DLC For PlayStation 3 'Next Week'

There was much rejoicing when Bethesda Softworks revealed the ongoing, extensive downloadable content support for Fallout 3 would no longer remain exclusive only to Xbox 360 and PC. PlayStation 3 owners have been begging for the add-ons, too, with Bethesda dodging reporters' questions on the subject. In May, when Bethesda announced PlayStation 3 support, they also issued a release date for the first content -- late June.

Obviously, it's not late June anymore. What happened? Nothing showed up on the PlayStation Store this week and Bethesda's been mum on the subject. Fallout 3's downloadable debut on PS3 may have been delayed, but an update is coming.

I might get this game for my PSTrey since my 360 version freezes now and is unplayable. I had 60 hrs invested already so i'm peeved to say the least.

Edit: yeah man, it's a great game. Also the first fallout i've played so yeah. I hope this one isn't as buggy for me.

Hellsvacancy5832d ago

ALL of it (im a MASSIVE Fallout 3 fan)

Winter47th5832d ago (Edited 5832d ago )

They treat their PS3 fanbase like second class gamers then they expect them to support them? I'll pass.

YoMeViet5832d ago

I'm gonna wait till they come out with GOTY, Greatest hit, or w/e version it is that has ALL of the DLC on it for free so I don't have to pay for stuff that should have been there in the first place. No matter how long that takes....

SinnedNogara5832d ago

It's about damn time!! But might not sell due to the way Bethesda has treated PS3 owners.

Persistantthug5832d ago

Of course I didn't buy Fallout period, and considering how many people say that it's broken, I don't really see the point in getting it now. Perhaps they may earn my money with a GOTY edition with all the DLC's included. I bought OBLIVION GOTY Edition 2 1/2 months ago for $20...Maybe I'll get Fallout at that price....maybe.

Hellsvacancy5832d ago

I wouldnt pay much attention 2 wot people say ive clocked 54hours on Fallout 3 and got the Platinum trophy and hadnt really had any problems

I think i had 2 restart the game when i did the G.O.A.T test and i think i may of gotten stuck between this wall and couldnt move and had 2 restart the game but thats all i never did understand y people where goin on like the games unplayable it ran just fine 4 me and i had the "gimped" Ps3 version

Hope the prices are reasonable, cuz it's looking like it would be cheaper to by the special edition or whatever it's gonna be that will include the full game plus all the map packs.

thereapersson5832d ago

Kind of old news now, waiting for this, isn't it? I guess if more people play it, it's only a good thing

HDgamer5832d ago

They make more money in the end. But I won't be buying it either way, I still haven't touched oblivion GOTY edition since I bought it.

supersonicsaga5832d ago

But the PS3 Oblivion GOTY was pretty sweet, you should play it.

Except the bug where you become a vampire forever.

McMee5832d ago (Edited 5832d ago )

Fallout 3 was great and all but I've seriously reached the point to where all I want from Bethesda is Elder Scrolls V info. My goodness I want that game more than anything. Think along the lines of what would you do for a Klondike bar. ANYTHING!!!!

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro65d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.

New Vegas and Morrowind should have been first!

Christopher73d ago

Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.

OMGitzThatGuy73d ago

MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it.

Christopher73d ago

***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***

I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.

RaidenBlack72d ago (Edited 72d ago )

Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.

RaidenBlack72d ago (Edited 72d ago )

Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.

FTLmaster73d ago

Got a soft spot for Fallout 3, so I'd be down to play this.

-Foxtrot73d ago

It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.

They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.

neutralgamer199273d ago

Would love a complete remake or sequel with enough resources

Abnor_Mal73d ago

The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.

Yui_Suzumiya73d ago (Edited 73d ago )

I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.

anast73d ago

They are only remaking their games that have been streamlined.
