Hello everyone!

First off I'm not biased towards any gaming system so please don't start your console wars in here. At the moment I'm doing all my gaming on a PS3 system. I've read most of the PS3-related threads and they always quickly turn into console wars.

Now, as a PS3 player and customer I made this little thread in order to see where I stand among all other PS3 users and how they feel about this multi-platform release.

By the way, I already pre-ordered my PS3 copy of Skyrim. I know Skyrim will turn out to be top notch on every platform. :clap:
Can't wait!!!

Got my CE on preorder and picking it up at the midnight launch. I would gladly give Beth my $150 on 11.11.11 for just the game itself.

im an xbox player who has owned a ps3 in the past. i found that oblivion ran the same on both xbox and ps3 so i really dont see any problems.

I'm pissed off at Bethesda's history with the PS3 and their continued ignoring of the concerns that justifiably stemmed from that history, but I can't say what I'll do. I'm not purchasing the game until I see the PS3 version in action and/or get some thoughts on a source from outside of Bethesda on the performance of the PS3 version, at least.

where's seti at?

Edit: damn- beat me to it.

PS3 player. Skyrim looks good. Its pre-ordered for PS3 enough said.

My name's become associated, huh? Good... Bethesda's handling of the PS3 version of Fallout was unacceptable and they ignore us now. That's my stance.

I have both a 360 and a PS3, though the majority of my gaming is done on the 360 since my brother has borrowed my PS3 untill he get's his own system. Will I be playing Skyrim on PS3 as well as 360? Of course, I plan on getting it for my brother for christmas, he's going to want me to show him the ropes, and besides.. I like helping people, as I did with New Vegas, cant very well help people that are experiencing PS3 bugs if I'm not playing it on the PS3 as well.

PS - NOT saying one is better than the other

Although I'm a PC player, I trust Bethesda to make a great game without having to see screenshots of it on my system.

*Que the PC Elitists*

- On-Topic:
I really don't care if they show footage or not, I'm getting it for the xbox, even though I own a PS3. Simply because I have a larger hard drive on my XBOX and I'm going to download it onto it so it runs smoother.

I'm a PS3 player and I'm not worried at all about the performance of Skyrim.

I can't wait and I trust Bethesda. I just hope Bill Gates doesn't pull more Oblivion [censored].

I'm new around these boards and yet I know you post on every PS3 related thread. Now that doesn't mean I don't see your point. I perfectly do, mate. But in my own experience I've had encountered very little glitches and bugs in previous TES games.

Previous TES games? Bethesda's never once internally developed a single Elder Scrolls game for any PlayStation platform. They outsourced the PS3 version of Oblivion to 4J Studios for the porting job. Bethesda's only PS3 project was Fallout 3... and that turned out poorly.

:violin: Then you are ignorant. Both of the platforms have always performed pretty much the same. Anytime they ever do console comparisons I can never tell the difference. I think you are overreacting and being childish. Same with anyone else who hasn't seen specific footage. Get over it and grow up.

I will buy skyrim on PS3 as I have with oblivion, fallout 3 and fallout new vegas

Never played Fallout before, mate. Not my kind of thing. I can only talk about my experience with TES series. But I can tell you for sure it's been a great experience. That's why I 'blindly' pre-ordered my PS3 copy.

You know it has, and yes you forcing people to read your posts. I do have eyes as far as I am aware. Even they are sick of seeing your posts. What I say is...

It is you who are being ignorant. The PS3 version of Fallout 3 ran at an average of 25 fps compared to the 360's and had no AA whereas the 360 version had 4xMSAA on most of its edges, but the intolerable problems came after the GOTY edition with bloated memory files, countless oversights, and frequent freezing/excessive lagging. If one doesn't know the difference between a game that functions extremely poorly and one that functions moderately well, there's a problem. Fallout 3 is the only game this console generation so poorly handled on the PS3, in my opinion. The original problems were just plainly annoying, but the freezing, saved data bloating, and broken features (I mean literally broken... as in not functioning as Bethesda intended.) were just unbearable and unique to Fallout 3, as far as PS3 games go. Fallout 3 is among those really poor PS3 ports. If you don't believe the occasional blatantly poor port exists, then you are being ignorant and it's clear to me that you are speaking with no experience with what I'm referring to do, so quite frankly, you have no business telling me what I did and didn't experience. You claim I should grow up, but it is you making arguments with no justifiable background or background evidence and it is you are so naive as to believe we live in some ideal world where corporations don't occasionally, at least, show blatant favoritism and/or lack of support for a given product. Grow up... it is a very "grown up" thing to do to realize the true nature of a corporation and to criticize and keep them in line. A corporation's goal is sell as little as possible for as much as possible. In this case, Fallout 3 on the PS3, particularly post GOTY, is realization of that.

I've never DL a full game before?? always like a disk version! Does it really make a huge difference to how smooth it plays if its DL or a hard copy????



I will defo be buying it hands down no questions.. I couldn't not!

However I am concerned about how it will port to PS3.. I hope the loading times are not going to be horribly long every time you go through a door... even if it is frustrating I'd still happily play through it but if I had a powerful enough laptop I'd defo get PC version of it obviously!!
