Concerns for Skyrim Zombie mode speculation

With still no sign of Dawnguard DLC for the PlayStation 3, it is understandable that there are concerns about rumors of a Skyrim Zombie mode. Apparently this new zombie-themed content is called Hearthfire, and those expecting Dawnguard on the PS3 are quizzing why Bethesda are concentrating on additional DLC when they have more pressing issues.

Although the expansion has yet to be formally announced, there is speculation that this will become available around Halloween season, yet some skeptical PS3 owners take that as a probable Christmas release. Reporting this news Gameranx mentions that Bethesda are expecting to release large-scale DLCs like Dawnguard in support of the Skyrim title, and there is a notion that Hearthfire has something to do with a Necromancy-related ceremony called “Tales and Tallows”.

The gaming industry has had it fair share of zombies, and we are worried that developers are all starting to jump on the same bandwagon, which has had many question whether yet another zombie game is really what we need. With zombies already present in the game, we wonder if they should be looking into coming up with something unique and some have suggested better DLC, much like Shivering Isles.

Highlighting the fact that Skyrim Dawnguard for the PS3 is still missing in action Examiner report on the vague response by Bethesda and comment on the lack of updates or answers in connection to their earlier views that the PS3 version is not what they needed it to be, in order to release it. A representative at Bethesda, Pete Hines, has not divulged any more information with nothing to report in regards to an update or timeframe. With many children going back to school in a couple of weeks our recent post spoke about the missed opportunity for Dawnguard on the PS3, and that plenty of disheartened fans may disregard this DLC altogether, as this was the ideal opportunity to make the most out of their playing time.

What do you think about Bethesda’s plans for a Skyrim Zombie mode? Are you a PlayStation 3 owner that has lost faith in Bethesda?
