yeah if thats the case mabye theyre just too lazy to set up other vids for the two platforms which means they probably have great confidence in the look for ps3/pc

As a PC gamer I feel left out in the cold--but not by Bethesda. By the gaming industry at large. The cause is the aging consoles. Games being developed for console first holds back their potential, and stagnates the market. I don't blame Bethesda for the way they are marketing and developing the game, that's only a symptom. I'd probably do the same in their shoes. We need new consoles, with new hardware that will push the industry forward.

:clap: We need this soon!

We HAVE seen PS3 footage, and a few PC screens, they just never said which is which. Confirmed by Pete Hines.

I blame microsoft. They are trying to ring as much money as possable out the the xbox 360 before they build a new console, its rather sad if you ask me.

What does it show about a person's personality... that they feel as though they deserve to see what they're purchasing before they purchase it and that they aren't comfortable with being treated as less important than another part of the fanbase?

DAMMIT WE NEED MONEY!!! lol ...no i agree though problem is the tech just isnt there yet even if it was think how much those consoles would cost not sure if alot of people are financially ready for that see this crap is why i wont see beyond good and evil 2 until then

but the company does not have any obligation to do it. It would be cool, ya, but there us no need to say "they need to do this" because they don't. And if you think they do then you obviously hold yourself in too high of a regard.

You should add an I don't care option.

They're obligated by their status as a respectable company... by the moral guidelines they should be following in actually showing their consumers that they give a care. They need to do this because they don't have a good track record to back up their claims, particularly on the PS3. It's not some arrogant sense of self-entitlement that drives a demand for an obligatory response, but rather the ante of Bethesda's status as a company that has concern for the final product of the consumer. If I must connect it to myself, then I'll reference the $60 I wasted on that pile of technical garbage known as the PS3 version of Fallout 3's GOTY edition. Bethesda should be obligated to show some attention to the fanbase they so blatantly ignored and shunned with that maneuver of theirs if only to prove their worth as being somewhat caring for the consumer. All or nothing... if they can't treat one part of the fanbase with any acknowledgement, they shouldn't do so for another part, yet they do and have. For all we know, this is primarily a 360 game haphazardly ported to the PC or, especially, the PS3. It is certainly intentional that Bethesda have only ever advertised the game as though that were the case and you can see it in nearly all of their PR stunts. They're obligated, at this point barely a month before release, months after they began aggressive 360 version promoting, and years after they began aggressive 360 favoritism, to show something pertaining to their non 360 fanbases simply because they've done little to warrant their reputation as so-called multiplatform developers given that it seems they're more along the lines of second-party 360 developers that, almost as an afterthought, port their games to the other platforms.

yeah i withdraw my there just lazy comment seti has a point ive heard slot of bad about ps3 versions(used to own a 360 ..they kept breaking) of bethesdas games and though i live and die for sithis and tes it would svck if my version or the pc versions have bugs so ugly they cant show them but seleve if this is the case mabye they will be more on the ball about the patches

Sony is just as guilty. If Sony came out with it's next gen console Microsoft would have to do so as well, or risk their place in the market, and loose the money they are so greedily squeezing from their console. So yes, both are guilty.

I think the tech is there. The 360 is for all intents and purposes a small PC. It packed a big punch in it's day (and overheated all the damn time--I'm on my third. Haven't got the new black one yet though), but it doesn't now. But even in it's day, if you spent the money, you could build a PC that would tear it to pieces. The primary reason that the next gen of consoles hasn't hit yet, is because people are still buying the current gen in droves. The companies see no reason to push the industry if they are still raking in money. You figure the PS3 was nearly $500 (with bells and whistles, some paid up to about $800) when it came out. Now it's $200. Would be no different if new consoles emerged. They would be insane expensive at first, and as sales grew, and time past, the price would fall.

I would definitely not buy one when they first come out, but then I'm a PC guy. I just spent $1200 building a new system. But then I do a lot more than just gaming.

I haven't seen any shots of Skyrim so far that has made me say "hmm, that must be on PC".

I'm a PC player and I couldn't care less they aren't focusing on showing the PS3/PC versions at all. The Xbox 360 version looks beautiful enough for me. They certainly have no obligation to show it

XBox live subscriptions must provide something for the money, right? In this case it's the erroneous impression that the XBox is the way to go for Skyrim and timed exclusivity for the first DLCs. I had no idea until today that people had to pay a monthly subscription for XBL. Now many things are starting to make sense... Had GFWL more successfully planted its roots in PC gaming, we'd have the same sort of mandatory monthly subscription, I'd bet. Eww...

Still, I don't blame Beth for riding the gravy train. I would too.

Voted: (Yes)3

If we get lucky we might get some footage when they release the PC specs...I really doubt it, but honestly we are really close to launch, and no PS3 footage..honestly it looks like they are trying to hide something, Beth really does not have a good record with the PS3 :/.....who thought that leaving part of the fanbase in the dark was a good idea!

Well then Sony needs to step up.

PSN is free, aptly, but there's the difference between it and XBL. PSN "stepping up" would mean them also charging some sort of monthly toll.

All I want is the PC system requirements, because I am VERY paranoid I won't be able to run Skyrim and I'm almost sure I won't in which case I will crawl under my bed and cry well i wont but you know ill be disappointed.

they do its called psn + they essential give things early to plus subscribers and plus subscribers pay WAY less for content

they do its called psn + they essential give things early to plus subscribers and plus subscribers pay WAY less for content

I dont play on either of those but....Here is a peacefull answer,trying to avoid some "console war"
They are still tweaking the ps3 and PC versions so you guys dont have to worry about the bugs that we will (I say we(360 players) very loosely)

You want it to run Skyrim or run Skyrim and look decent? You can always cut the resolution in half and turn the settings to lowest.

Sony would rather spend their time and money buying up game studios... Ugh, sadly I didn't quite like Uncharted, LittlebigPlanet, Infamous and Gran Turismo....
