Dear Bethesda,

I sure hope one of you reps, or anyone there gets to this, because I have some issues

1.) Game is still buggy like Fallout 3. I can survive this, honestly. It's not too big a problem, and its not as bad as FO3. I just don't understand how you guys could miss this twice. Whatever the problem is, it must be unfixable.

2.) I played helping Yes Man into leader, and continuing until I was notified that the NCR would turn against me. So I started helping them out, but this was after President Kimball was saved. I was given a part of the quest to save Kimball for the NCR when I had already done it for Yes Man. So when I tried to talk to the Ranger guy about doing so, the dialogue screen would not open. He simply states "Good job saving the president", etc. and doesn't allow me to help. So, I took Yes Man's ending. I was unhappy with it. But apparently I had no choice, so I hope that can be fixed. For now, I'll be resarting my game, but this also leads to my third piece.

3.) HOW MUCH IS MICROSOFT BRIBING YOU TO KEEP PS3 USERS FROM HAVING DLC? It's simply not fair. I finished the game and was disappointed like FO3, and let my game collect dust for 6+ months, while I waited for Xbox's parade to end. When I got the DLC I was an avid player of FO3. Now that I see I'll be waiting again, I think I'm simply returning my preordered game, and buying something more... equal? You've DEFINITELY lost all respect I have. I have nothing against Xbox users or Microsoft, but simply the fact that you're allowing them to abuse PS3 users. I really hope an expert here at gamesas will shoot me down and tell me I'm wrong, and that things aren't as bad as I say. Otherwise, you've lost another customer. Maybe you're thinking, "pfft, we have TONS more" but you have to think of how many PS3 players you've let down.

I enjoyed all Fallout games so much. Please don't ruin it for me and others. Tell us you're going to fix the bugs, and even up the system playing field.

With the utmost disappointment,

A PS3 User.

dude... yes mans not the leader you are... they are 2 separate story lines and if you become your own leader the NCR and Caesar will turn on you no matter what there was no reason to restart the game. The quest to save the president is just a side quest and is not necessary.

No, when you talk to Colonel Moore, she needs you to protect the President. I have already done that before i even said a word to her. her quest includes saving him, and when i talk to the ranger guy, he doesnt talk.
Either way, i know im not just trying to complain. my save file is there, and theres obviously a problem. helping yes man, or not, its that part of the quest i was doing. and now i cant help the NCR fight at the dam.

yes man is the one and only thing that cannot be killed in new vegas

everything/everyone can be and will be killed

What does that have to do with anything here? I knew that. Haha

so..your helping NCR than? thought you said Yes man? well i dunno than dude.

Man, the thing is, I was so confused as to what to do in the start of the game. I thought it would be a really bad idea to kill mr house, but then i figured out it wasnt so bad so i did it. then i talked to yes man, but found out he was doing all the same stuff as mr house sorta, with just a little bit of a twist. at that point, i just wanted to see NCR hold the dam, and win off with that. but i cant do that now. im just gunna have to play it over again and cover the mistakes i made before, its just, thats so agonizing...

Consider this about the DLC for PS3.

Sony charges COMPANIES not players for bandwidth usage. Every patch, every DLC, costs gamesas cash.

Given Sony's policies you should be glad you get anything at all. Pick a console that doesn't try to take developers up the butt and maybe you'll get better support. It upsets me that the DLC won't be available on PC because on PC there are little bandwidth costs and any there are they could pass along to the consumer for a minimal charge (I'd pay 17.00 rather than 14.99 gladly!), but Sony is actively hostile to developers and is such a small marketshare it's a service to the community not a profit advantage that has them supporting PS3 at all. If you have a problem go to Sony not gamesas.

Actually Yes Man is the leader and not you. He tells you what to do and when to do it. He's programmed with House's ideas and plans, so killing House doesn't change much. (at least that's how it seemed to me)

Its true - its a very disrespectful thing to do. I am a PS3 User and my favorite all-time game is Fallout 3 and to know that you are not priority to Bethesda or even equal to other console users is very dis-heartening. Its clearly displaying that they care more about money than fans and customers of the game.

Well, id love to hear gamesas confirm this, cuz if its true i WOULD go to Sony. but, why does it just so happen that this kind of problem only occurs with Fallout? I have plenty of other games with DLCs that come out at the same time as Xbox. Call of Duty, Red Dead Redemption, you name it, its probably around the same timing as Xbox. So yeah, im not paying an annual charge to play online, and it costs gamesas to produce the DLC for sony, but why would they need to wait to release it? and what seperates them from all the other companies?

Sony charges companies to release DLC. Those links are all to news about it. Given their developer-hostile environment I reiterate: Sony is third place in the online wars, if gamesas gives anyone PS3 support it's because of charity not profit.

I know people in the industry, a certain well-known company that's developed a sequel to a very beloved early 3d shooter game and a recent shooter, as well as a certain Star Wars offshoot, and I've heard horror stories about PS3 SDKs, licenses expiring early and forcing developers to work 30 hours over a weekend on their time off, being so far out-of-standard they take months to adapt a game to PS3, Sony hostaging companies for more money to keep their devkits activated after they paid for them. Sony is extorting companies for money every way they can because they realize they can't survive without taking developers up the old carriage road for every dollar because Microsoft and Nintendo both put out better consoles.

Alright you know what? You aren't helping. I don't wanna hear your facts okay. I'm not giving into Microsoft, just because they make things appear easier if you're with them. It's the system man, and they rig it. I don't care, I just want to see things fair between Xbox and PS3. Do you think I walked into the store thinking "I wonder which system is easier on developers, Ps3 or Xbox" ? NO. I was thinking "Wow, PS3 is gunna look alot better on my hd tv than Xbox. I'll take one" . Yeah, it might get dirty here and there, but I'm sick and tired of microsoft taking advantage of everything.

I didn't ask you to agree, I simply presented facts. Sony Entertainment America is actively HOSTILE to developers and because of that fact they will get DLC after cash-blah (XBLA) and Windows Live Arcade and Steam. If you have an issue with Sony making it hard to develop and release for their own station your hostility should be aimed at Sony America not at gamesas. Beth is just playing with the hand Sony dealt to her, and as a New Vegas player you should understand the Caravan Deck is stacked against her from the start.

You can't complain to gamesas that Sony, a company not related to Bethesda at all, is making it expensive and difficult to release DLC on their platform. Your rage should rightfully be aimed at Sony Entertainment America.

And even better your hard-earned dollars should be going towards a platform that does not try to screw developers nickle-and-dime at the expense of a quality player experience.

Well the issue i have with that is, when Microsoft can make a decent console system. Then maybe i'd rely on it to actually play games! On my 3rd Xbox360 atm Red Ring of Doom ftw ; ;. But if Bethesda can not release DLC for ps3, maybe they shouldnt even bother releasing their game on the console as well.

soo could we keep talking about mr smilies and house please?
what i gathered is that its a dam waste to kill house and replace him...i thought i would be taking over vegas...like the trailer suggested... :'(
