Missed opportunity for Dawnguard PS3

Bethesda claim Xbox is their favourite console to work with because it's easier to program for. Thats like eating instant noodles every night because it's too hard to make spaghetti bolognase. They need to talk to some PS3 exclusive developers and take notes on how not to suck.

think u guys and girls have it bad i live in australia and still havent got the update for skyrim on the ps3 nth america has it europe has it but not us so im still waiting for it and dawnguard

Too be honest I was not impressed with skyrim, between the bugs and lack of decision making it was a pretty bleak experience. The two thing that kept me playing was the promise of "big" and "complete" DLC's and the fact that I pretended I was north of the wall in westeros. It is nearing a year now and all I have is the unfulfilled promise of a lame vampire themed add on. The franchise just lost something with skyrim and I really hope someone rises up to fill my fantasy needs. The Withcer series is pretty good besides being a little lame with the in-game romance.

fifa 13 and black ops 2 forget this game anyone want a copy of skyrim for ps3 5$

I'm a UK PS3 owner and if this DLC ever comes out, I will probably still buy it, but I really won't enjoy it that much anymore seeing as most people I know have got an xbox so they've pretty much told me every single thing about the DLC which has ruined the whole excitement for me, and like someone else has mentioned, the update hasn't even come out in the UK yet, I am also going back to college soon so I will be far too busy to even play any games on PS3, I wanted to play this over the holidays but I can't see that happening now, I know I am just saying what has been said, but I'm not some wealthy person, I really had to hold onto some money just to wait for this DLC but I give up now, I'd either ask that on the first day of it's release it is free, or the price is a lot cheaper, it's just adding insult if they expect us to pay the full price for something they have failed to keep us updated with in the news as well as making us wait for it..

@10552c2bd44225b302eca119097b6f3a:disqus PC is better. Xbox is trash. :L

I just traded my ps3 version for an Xbox version made another character and viola! Bad ass character power leveled. Yes it sucks, but obviously none of you design video games and no nothing of coding. If it was so easy it would've been done. Microsoft didn't get my money games top just got a trade, for an equal game since I have a friend that works there. Xbox has always been easier to program for and it was something that was made clear when the console wars were started during the release of these next gen systems. Quit crying like some fan boys already...

@fbf407f5586958a16604049350833569:disqus Xbox is gay. PC FO LIFE!

XBOX FO LIFE NIGGAS!

I'm just buying Dawnguard and that's it. I'm glad I got some news about it, but it should have been ready around the same time as the xbox version so they could have done bug fixes during the 30 days. I guess I have mounted combat to play with.

Oh and another thing, ps3 was suppose to get the 1.7 update but we didn't at least not the last I played it we got the 1.6 update finally, after pc got it in May and Xbox got it in June. There is so much butt hurt between me and Bethesda because it's like "hey here's a great game full of lags and bugs but oh well you'll log hours of gameplay and hear promises about dlc but it won't happen"

well I rarely buy dlc, call me old fashioned but I think the entire game should be released at once. But they dont rake in the money that way so in with the new I guess. Anyway, if I were going to buy this dlc it would have had to have been well before the other awesome games were on the horizon. AC3, borderlands 2, whatever else i may be forgetting. sooo its about time I sold skyrim and see what funds I can get

I just want to know why they (Bethesda) released it on Xbox with all those glitches a d now they say they're trying to "fix it" for ps3. Like I've read from some ones idea they thought that Microsoft bought a 2 month deal and they are trying to cover their asses. Either way i don't care anymore, I think I'll stick to DC Universe Online

I will agree that I will still buy it when it comes out because i hate xbox and don't care for computers with their mods that glitch games like crazy anyways (as shown in many modded vids). At the same time it is b.s, and darksiders 2 is looking way funner then skyrim. Im guessing this DLC will be the equivalent of the Pitt in FO3 (horrible and boring). Heres my quesition for people, how many of you remembered how long it took lonesome road to come out for Fallout New Vegas? People were bitching and moaning that it wasn't out yet. All that griping and for what? the game was all hype and it sucked dog balls anyways, Lonesome road was the biggest hype ever to turn into a huge let down. I smell this happening with Dawnguard as well. I would play it just to be a vampire lord to give me something new to do in the world of Skyrim. I am not expecting greatness or thoroughness in the story line.

Man F*** that bethesda knew what they were doing I believed if they really wanted to get it up in running they would have. My thing is as soon as school start next week dawngaurd I don't care thing I'm putting my money to Borderlands 2 Black Ops 2 skyrim is starting to be old I say F*** Bethesda if they don't have it out by or before next week we move on.!!!!!!Ps3 UNITE!!!!!

ive been patient, but there is a thing as too much patience. i have refuseed to play skyrim until the dlc came out. its just ridiculous and its kinda unfair. xbox, pc and god knows they will annouce a damn skyrim for the wii before they release it for ps3. its been too long. we deserve better than i believe a 2 1/2 month wait. and really you guys release it on the kinect which i think is totally unnesecary and that time could have been used for the ps3.

This must be mostly children putting up silly statements. Yes I am disappointed the DLC is not out yet but do you really think all the work they have done should be ignored and just give it away. The company works to make a profit and giving away your product isn't a smart financial decision. The really funny part is all you people saying "I'm not gonna buy it when it does come out" are the first ones who will fork out the cash, or put it on your credit card and then end up paying 3 times the original amount when the interest is added on. I will gladly wait and continue to read these hilarious posts from disgruntled children to fill the time until it is released.

This is disgusting how long it has taken to release dawnguard DLC for ps3. For ps3 users they shouldnt not be charged for the DLC as we have been massively let down by this long delay. At the moment im not going to puchase it any more and are probably thousands more. In the end of the day its bethesda's loss.

If Microsoft wanted exclusivity with Dawnguard and similar DLC, Bethesda should have made Skyrim itself exclusive to the Xbox. What they are doing is illegal since I paid $60 like most people but am only getting a portion of the game. It's like buying a car with no wheels or doors and the dealer sells them separately but only to a certain group of people.

No matter what anyone say, I'll can't wait for Dawnguard. I know Skyrim was full of bugs but I still played it. Let the milkdrinkers cry. I can wait and so can any real fan of the game!

bethesda should give us a discount

"a missed opportunity for children"... I'm 20 and I am suffering just as much!

Who cares about this DLC anyway? There are too many good titles coming out to really want to invest in this anyway. I know all my funds are aimed only at Borderlands 2, which is only 1 month away from release. I could care less about any DLC coming out. We are closing in on the holiday season with the heavy hitters of the year being released. I don't live and breathe for any one paticular game, and if Bethesda thinks that I'm going to pass on Borderlands 2, RE6, or Hitman to play their little DLC, they would be very wrong.

I don't see how you impatient people can live with yourselves,blaming bethesda for accepting the exclusive from microsoft for money.You obviously don't know it costs about $40,000 for them to put that dlc in ps store.Would you put something imperfect such as this dlc in the store for $40,000?Then later fix the bugs and having to pay sony even more money to give us the patch?

I've been playing Skyrim more recently in preparation for dawnguard and I'm disappointed in this long wait. I'm not going to act like I create games or DLC and I don't know how long it's going to take, but I'm a bit skeptical that Bethesda's taken almost 2 extra months (and counting) to "fix bugs" I mean, are they just creating Dawnguard on PS3 now? Or did they just make it so bad the first time just to say they have something to work with? No doubt Bethesda makes the best games, ad I'll always buy their games, but I'm just frustrated with this delay on a product that should've been completed and ready to launch after the 30 day window of Microsoft exclusive passed. I own a Xbox360 and PS3, and my preference is PS3. I'm not going to buy Skyrim on Xbox just to get my hands on the DLC, but I just wish Bethesda could kick it into overdrive so they can pump out Dawnguard on PS3 to please the still loyal fans. After such a wait, I'm not asking for the content to be free, but I do believe a small price reduction is in order, my thoughts would be 5-10$ reduction as a "we're sorry it took so long" gift. I would be very offended if Bethesda expected PS3 users to hash out 20$ for something they've been forced to wait for.

For a few hundred bucks you can upgrade most household PCs above the power of a PS3 and play user-created mods to occupy the gaps in between DLC releases. Win win.

ps3 owners need a price drop 10 or 15 insted of the 20 for the Dawnguard DLC

bethesda sucks...i will nt buy the DLC for sure

you all need to relax its just a game. i have an xbox and i just havent bought it yet and its my favorite game of all time. and for those of you we have to go to school and dont think they will have time you are just being ridiculous.

If we don't get this for free after the crap we had to go through before any DLC was announced, and now the wait to even get the DLC, i'm not even going to buy it. This is just ridiculous. Long story short, it should be free. Or at least offered and an extremely reduced price.

ill still play it definately...bethesda is the shit...they make the best games hands down...

impatients fucks...regardless shits gonna be fun...n to those who r still n skl...sucks to be you...hahahaha...ill jus hit my bong n wait.....

dawnguard doesnt look as exciting anymore but darksiders 2 well thats a different story goodbye bethesda.

Honestly people. Saying things like "I'm Not going to buy any more Bethesda games because i'm sick of waiting" is really old. i play on PS3, and i'm a little deflated that it's taking so long. But i'm not going to lie to myself. Bethesda's games are the best, and no matter what ,i'm going to end up buying their DLC's. Microsoft paid more money for a kickback, and can you blame them? it's just business. Your little self righteous boycott is only going to stop you from enjoying great games.

While I'm likewise just as irritated about the PS3 delay of Dawnguard, I remember that the Oblivion expansion of Shivering Isles for the PS3 released 8 months after it did for the Xbox/PC, so this isn't any historical change for Bethesda. I'm guessing that I'll be having fun playing something else, hear that Dawnguard released in a Game of the Year edition along with who knows what, and probably get it at a discount at Gamestop. Patience saves money. Too bad Bethesda is blowing their little payout for timed release, because it's always better to get money from CUSTOMERS instead of other corporations, because customers keep on paying. This is why the video game industry is slumping. Last month alone saw a drop of 30% in VG revenues on all platforms. Hopefully this is a wake-up call that petty territorial payouts will harm the industry.

I agree with alot of people on this thread, make Dawnguard free for ps3 users (when it eventually comes out) and also stop accepting microsoft's money for the '30-day exclusive'! you make enough money as it is, so why upset the superior console users with your 'business opportunities'

Well, half of Bethesda is at Gamescom... and the other half are.. well I don't know

I think there's a better chance of winning the lotto than getting a few updates from the spastics in bethesda.

You pegged it I definitely wanted to play it over the summer but I just registered for school today so it looks like that's not going to happen

We should get it for free, and some perks included, like 10-20 perks

Who fricken CARES if it has bugs? Bugs make it fun and funny. They can just release it now and FIX the bugs in the NEXT update!!!

What I'm going to do is simply watch the game play on Youtube. Why waste money on this and time when you can watch Toby play it!?

The lack of communication is shocking i feel deeply saddened by the way we have been treated by bethesda and i hope the next dlc will be handled more sensibly. I have now given up on dawnguard but for the sake of those who haven't i hope bethesda learn to act less childish.

we should really get the DLC for free, for all the wait from the start of the release of the xbox version.

1.6 Isnt even on UK PS3 yet nevermind 1.7. We cant even get updates on time. Weve waited so long that 1.7 includes 1.6

But patch 1.7 hasn't even come out yet! It is awesome that 1.6 is available for ps3, but I have yet to see 1.7 on my skyrim account in Canada. 1.7 may not have been that exciting, but it still feels awful getting it so late, when told that it is out!
