Why are PS3 users so entitled to get their own footage that won't really show ANYTHING about its capabilities. Honestly be happy that they even decided to bother making a PS3 version of the game. Why do they have to put up with the crappy Sony graphics language that no one else uses AND the fanbois who cry foul when they only show footage from the console they are developing the damn game on.

You even got a tweet from Pete Hines saying that he walked up to Todd playing the game and was incredibly surprised when Todd turned around and had a PS3 controller in his hand instead of an xbox 360 one... This alone tells you the differences between the 2 are minimal at most. Bugs will exist in both releases, probably a bit more in the PS3 version but to be honest who expected any different?

And in the end I will enjoy the game on the one platform which is clearly better than the others, the PC. And my friends who have the Xbox version will enjoy the game, and so will the ones who have the PS3 version. Sure bugs can be annoying but if you don't want to buy the game because you havent had screenshots or footage or previews from your console, then honestly you don't really want to play Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

I will be ashamed of Bethesda if they don't release any PS3 and PC shots or footage before release... It's like buying a car but you can't see it until you buy it..

As a PS3 owner, thank you. I'm kind of embarrassed by this entire thread... As I said previously though, there better not be something like the vampire glitch that never gets fixed. I imagine, like most games, there will be no great difference between the two consoles.

We're approximately at one month before Skyrim's release. We still haven't seen any confirmed PS3 or PC screenshots or footage, still only 360 footage, we already know they're going for timed DLC exclusivity deals with Microsoft, they haven't demod the PS3 or supposedly the PC version even once at any of these conventions (including the ones where fans got to try the game out for 15-20 minutes), we have no reviews of the PS3 version and possibly not even the PC version and no reference for how they technically look and run, we already know the 360 is the lead platform and the other versions practically ports, nothing Skyrim-related is coming onto the PSN, any given Bethesda staff member won't even acknowledge the lack of PS3/PC footage and/or the possibility of seeing either before release... or from them, at all. Just today, I found out that the speedruns were exclusively held on the 360 and Bethesda released the list of 360 achievements... but didn't even so much as mention the PS3's trophies and I'm not sure of anything pertaining to Steam achievements.

Arguably, some of these things are minor and even unimportant, depending on the specific subjective view, but my point is more about what, together, they represent and more about the principle of much of it. This game isn't coming across as multiplatform, it's coming across as a 360-exclusive. I... my head's throbbing, but I've reached an all-time peak of frustration when I should be celebrating the game's upcoming release... but I can't because I don't even feel like Bethesda considers anyone playing on my platform or the PC in any of their marketing decisions and few of their technical decisions. They won't show anything pertaining to the other versions and it's really upsetting me. What is this? How much longer do we need to wait? Why is everything relayed the public about the 360 version? This is simply an inexcusable failure on the part of Bethesda's marketing team. They aren't addressing their fans on 2/3 of their supposedly supported platforms. Following what they dared to do with Fallout 3's PS3 DLC (delay, release as technical mess, never acknowledge or patch it) and I just have very little faith in their technical motivation to actually give a crap about something other than the 360 version nor am I getting the message from the marketing that this is a multiplatform game... just a 360 game quickly and haphazardly ported over to the other platforms in an attempt to grab money. What gives?

[censored] money. At this point I'd wish we could still live in pre-historic ages, when there's no rich and poor, there's only skill and life.

Embarrassed? Why?
