Remember how the early release to 360 led to videos full of spoilers for around a week?

Well, thanks to Bethesda deal, we can expect a full 30 days of spoilers for every DLC and this time Bethesda won't try to take down the videos because the DLCs are officially released.


...any other ways you want to ruin my game experience Bethesda?

Unless your a Final Fantasy or Rockstar fan of course. :banghead: :swear: :flame:

But yeah timed and total exclusives bother me a lot also. It is the one thing IMO that is blatant in this industry where one group is getting screwed because of greed. If the majority of gamers were not so occupied with bashing each others systems all the time, they might realise this.

If that's true(a.k.a. xbox faces no competition) then Microsoft won't even bother to do such thing. :spotted owl:

I think he was being sarcastic, mate.

I can see why xbox would get it before PS3? But why before PC? Last time I checked, the box says "Games for Windows" for all those microsoft conspirators.

Miscrosoft now regret that they didn't make Windows a closed OS like xbox or iOS. :brokencomputer:

I am 100% ok with that, too... :sadvaultboy:

Seriously, who wouldn't want to have the DLC when it's readily available to others? It's actually a pretty [censored] thing to do to gamers, holding out on a bunch of people who already invested in the game.

You serious?

Fair ?, it's a business decision what does 'fair' have to do with anything. When did companies whose sole purpose are profits stop being aggressively capitalist and become beacons of equality and fairness.

I don't care. Chances are I'm not buying the 20 minutes DLC's they release, anyway. Hopefully I'm wrong, but that's what I forsee. more of Oblivon's house mods.

The XBox is the main platform for Bethesda, now and in the future. Just be thankful that the game isn't an Xbox exclusive.

I answered the same question on the page before already:

Because the PC is not a Microsoft platform (besides using Windows). Microsoft doesn't get a cent from the PC version of Sykrim while they get royalties for each 360 version so of cause they prefer that everyone buys the Xbox360 version instead and can't care less if you play on the PC.

Being a "Games for Windows"-game doesn't really mean anything, just a fancy logo. MS still doesn't get anything :shrug:

Hey Folks, lest not forget that it's a legitimate business contract. Sony could have easily payed the amount needed for this exclusivity, but Microsoft just beat them to the punch. That's the way the world works... like it or not.

As for PC, sorry, no one's come to your aid. The money is simply not there anymore.

We did. [censored] save files, delayed DLC, we've gotten boned. Thanks Beth.

doesn't xbox get all dlc's a month earlier than ps3 for everything?
myself, id rather wait a month then pay for online services (xbox live is biggest ripoff imo).

A whole month earlier! Wow, however will I be able to wait so long? Life's tough on the ps3...

What really gets me is its Microsoft screwing pc users. I'd say I was surprised, but well... its microsoft. I just get a little smile every time they get sued over patents and trade abuses

That's because PS3's are the [censored] end of the console universe...(seriously not being able to see the dashboard if you're set to HD and hooked up on a non-HD TV...[censored]!)

Well, Xbox 360 users such as I pay for Xbox Live and truthfully I could careless if I get it first... Whats the point of it??? What good does it do us Xbox 360 users? Or is it punishment for people who didn't choose to play on the 360? Which isn't very fair but I bought the 360 and I'm very happy with it so don't think I was saying I disliked it because I love the 360 and I wouldn't play on any thing else. But yes it is unfair and it gives neither Xbox 360 or the other platforms any advantages...

As far as PS3: They know what happens when they get stuff too early/first.
Take Dynasty Warriors 5 I think it was? And Unreal Tournament 3. Totally BOMBED For them to make Koei-Tecmo push their game for Ps3 first, and Epic Games to push Unreal Tournament 3 to PS3...both games svcked in quality on PS3 due to being rushed to them first.
Seriously, Look up DW5 on Youtube comparison between Xbox 360 and PS3. I don't know if they fixed via patches later, but since then?
PS3's Exclusives "First to get it" usually is between Exclusived only to PC And PS3 peeps.

Also, You pay 60 bucks a year to microsoft, and their main focus is SOFTWARE, of course Microsoft is going to get it first. PS3 is a HARDWARE company.

The one part I don't get is...why isn't PC getting it first? that makes no sense seeing Microsoft is in the PC community (Uhhh DUH!). Weird...Usually Beth always pushes the PC community first DUE to the Creation Kit/Digital Download/Their Pride is on the PC normally. Weird...

I play it on Xbox mostly. but I played Morrowind on PC After putting thousands of hours into the Xbox version because of Mods. SOME of Oblivion on PC..(like few hours to check the creation Kit again...my laptop could not handle it for [censored] after I downloaded 1-2 mods...lol Went back to Xbox when Shivering Isles/Knights of the Nine came out)

Bethesda sold out.

Um... it's XBOX... you can't do anything with it, so that's why they get the dlc first. That or they're in bed with Microsoft, of which I wouldn't be surprised. PS3 like XBOX is very limited - can't do much if anything with these consoles - slip in disk and play. No real modding unless you're an IT geek. PC, on the other hand, is the platform of real gamers as you can modify just about anything. Pre-build, prefab gaming consoles are sold to the masses where not too much thought is really needed to play or it's bought for little kids where they don't need to be on a computer as they're too young. And don't start whining cuz you know it's true but don't want to admit it.

xbox360 players make up a majority of there players.

The first 2 could be solved simply by you not buying the DLC until some reviews come in. No need for them to be on a different platform unless you can't control yourself.

Thank you Akaryu - as I said, primarily sold to the massess...
