Ok, I'm a gamer who happens to own both consoles. I used to play my 360 quite a bit but after I bought a PS3 in 2008, I kind of leaned more towards using that system for reasons that I don't really need to get into here. Anyway, when Skyrim was announced, I was very excited. I played Oblivion on the PS3 and really enjoyed it. As such, I never really even considered buying Skyrim for the Xbox. In the run-up to the release of Skyrim; while I was very enthusiastic about the game, I was also struck by the lack of PS3 content that was made available. It seemed we were always shown the 360 or PC version. In hindsight, I guess that should have been a red flag.

Now I have purchased the game and have been playing it only to be haunted by its clear inferiority to the other two versions. The graphics are clearly inferior to those of the Xbox version. Anyone who wants to argue against that is just kidding themselves. I have seen them both running on the same TV. I had a friend of mine bring his 360 copy to my house and I saw it for myself. It's a bitter pill to swallow when you see something like that. None the less, I managed to just keep trudging along on my PS3 game and I was really enjoying it in spite of the technical inferiority until the lagging began. I don't need to explain this to the people in here but AAAARRRGGGGHH!

So now, having completed my rant, I'd like to ask a question or perhaps make a suggestion. Is there any way that we can give our PS3 version back and get a 360 version without having to pay extra money for it? I think that Bethesda has been delibrately duplicitous in their marketing and release of this game. I purchased this game on the assumption that it would be equal to the 360 version. Bethesda themselves said as much in several of the pre-release interviews. The game has actually made me want to dust off my 360 and use it agian but I don't feel that I should have to pay extra for that. Right now, I can't even play the damn thing! I litterally can turn it on and play for 20-30 minutes before the lag and inability to interact takes over.

Anyways, I don't expect that Bethesda or anyone else in the industry will facilitate my request but it would be nice to hear somone take responsibility for what has happened to PS3 players here. We've been completely screwed! This is one of the most messed up things I've experienced with video games and I'd like for Todd Howard himself to [censored] acknowledge it.
