Fallout 3 DLC - Why Bethesda

[painfull2006]

Don't cry

why cant people be happy with just having the game any more?

It just goes to show you picked the wrong console, oh curse thoes developers for you know... wanting to make money and all! how dare they!...

no

They said that the DLC would be exclusive before Fallout 3 was even released. That's kinda like me buying MGS4 and being mad that it won't work in my 360.

IT DOESN'T WORK IN YOURS EITHER!?

As an Xbox 360 owner who was disappointed at the Level 20 cap in Fallout 3, I for one welcome our new DLC overloads and shall celebrate my rampage.

And for the record, Operation: Anchorage was pretty sweet.

Painfull: I only got annoyed cause psycho decided the best way to talk was to be a condecending tool. Saying it in such a way that if I bothered researching the game at all I'd have known about it. I don't care playstation got a dodgy version, I'm more annoyed at the fact I bought it and found out later "your not getting the whole game btw" (knowing this beforehand would have influenced my decision to get it at all, so what if the playstation version doesn't get it all, if it doesn't I just wouldn't buy it, simple).

It's not like I wouldn't buy an Xbox if there was good enough reason to, there just isn't right now.

Someone should write them a stern, nicely worded letter!

I have the PS3 version and I don't give a hoot about the DLC itself, I just want the ability to play post-ending. Is that so much to ask?

we Payed for the game. Why are we not getting what we deserve, We pay Alot of out Money for a game, I personly Love Fallout 3 but am sick of Microsoft just buying deals because they have more money, sure sony make developers pay but who doesn't?

Bethesda has it's loyalties in this order PC > Xbox > Playstation > Nintendo
They started making PC games, then made Morrowind on xbox but did more for the PC version. Then Oblivion added PS3, and I was actually surprised they released Oblivion for it. By now they are nicer to xbox. Maybe they will get nicer to playstation later, maybe not. Could just go for PC or 360 instead.
Note I added Nintendo to the bottom as they dont do anything for it ie bottom. Just for reference.

Here's an unbiased summary of the topic which encompasses all the preceding posts and following posts.

Xbox 360 Players: YAY/That's business/360 is the best/360 sells more/*insert snarky PS3 comment*

PS3 Players: Unfair/Evil Microsoft/Evil Marketing Tactics/PS3 is superior/*insert snarky 360 comment*

PC Players: Noobs/Real gamers play on the PC

 

[The_Night_Walker]

Its still unfair lol - it isn't a big charge from Sony they still make a huge profit from there DLC

 

[Pezzer]

Word of advice- get a PC. They get more games than any console.

 

[Ishnuvalok]

My question is why DLC should cost money. Valve do free DLC. Remember when games used to get like, new maps and vehicles, weapons and skins in patches? And those were free?

Exclusivity agreements per MS money. Buy a 360 or a good PC. Seriously Sony is really falling apart in the console war.

This time last year the difference was twice as big!

And I voted 360 to correct that. I have one.

I loved operation anchorage though I don't look forwards to the pitt or Broken steel as much. Sorry ps3 owners we all knew it was exclusive and MS wise it makes sense. I am happy to pay microsoft for good content rather then get sony's crappy live for free. The live might work onlinee but charging the third party over the users is a mistake. Sony messed up.

They made an expensive console that featured the blu ray gimmick but very few people actually care so in the end it is just a gimmick.

They featured the free live gimmick but this lead to them charging the third party making game makers even more reluctant to make ps3 games (the list is bad enough already).

You got what you payed for: Fallout 3. It sucks that you can't buy the add-ons, but you payed for Fallout 3 and you got Fallout 3.

Just play the game on the PC and get the DLC that way, it looks better on the PC than it does on either system.

 

[t.tocs]

PS3 owners shouldn't be complaining, they should be laughing their assess off. Bethesda/Microsoft have only managed to get 1 DLC out of 3 out the door and on the systems correctly. Operation Anchorage was fine, but the Pitt was riddled with issues and now the newest expansion won't even isntall on the PC. So, while it does suck you don't have the ability to play it...rest assured, others who own the other systems, can't either.

Oh, and about the post above me...not all people can afford gaming rigs. You need a pretty good computer to play Fallout on the PC and pretty good computers are getting expensive!

 

[Rivana]

I suppose you are right, although you can usually build a pretty decent PC by browsing the sales at newegg and ordering parts while they are cheap. I saw an ATI 4870HD 1 gig card for $130 after MIR. That is an awesome deal.

Im more annoyed by the DLC for tomb raider underworld being xbox only did microsoft just forget about the PC market?
