Will Skyrim Dawnguard DLC be on ps3 ? or only xbox

Post » Thu Jun 14, 2012 4:37 pm

i wanted to know if the dlc will be for the 2 consoles or not.....because everytime i enter a Dawnguard topic they only say to have 1600 points for xbox and something like that but no psn or any news........so i was wondering...the dlc is only for xbox ?

It's going to be Xbox 360 exclusive for a month, after that it's coming to PS3 and PC as well.

This dlc reminds me of underworld 2....as you can see the flying thing that you can turn into looks just like the evil character that selene defeat at the end...you know.....the first full vampire

It's 19,99 USD and it will be released this summer (at least on 360).

Bethesda signed a deal with Microsoft for their DLCs to be exclusive to XBOX for 30 days AFAIK

Microsoft made a deal with Bethesda. They like to buy limited exclusivity periods for add-ons.

its good for Bethesda in the long run considering how much they are paid to actually do this, also good for the other consoles as well some of the more serious bugs might be ironed out thanks to the xbox running into them first

Pretty much all this, plus Microsoft also gets to advertise X-Box 360 and Kinect alongside all advertisemants for the DLC, which in turn gets people motivated to purchase the console, the accessory, and the game. It's not necessarily a bad thing, since like §kyrim says, it also lets the more serious bugs get ironed out prior to release on other platforms, which benefits everyone there as well, so it's more or less a win-win situation. The only downfall to it being 30 days though, coupled with a beta, is that every spoiler about the DLC will flood out onto the internet, but there's ways to avoid coming across spoilers. Just try to avoid going onto the forums for awhile until the DLC releases if you're worried about spoilers.

Also, keep in mind that companies like Bethesda and Microsoft need money for the continued development of such things as more video games, as development costs aren't exactly getting any lower, so don't take anything I said as being against the idea of timed exclusives.

there is very little evidence to support the idea that something from bethesda running on an Xbox 'ok' is going to perform anywhere nearly as well on the PS3.

In fact, based on recent history, we might be inclined to believe the exact opposite is true.

FNV suffered serious problems after DLC was added to it, and even still the 'ultimate' edition is unfixed but they keep selling it for PS3.

We Xbox players will get it for 30 days first, but if it makes you feel any better, by the time ps3 and PC players get it, it will be less buggy :)

People need to stop whinning about the PS3 port.

Sure it has a few more bugs but it's not game breaking.

Besides PS3 version has better graphics then Xbox when it comes to Skyrim.

for some people (like me) the bugs are still game breaking. so bottle up your little urges and keep comments like this to yourself.
