Fallout 3 PS3 DLC missing in action

Posted on July 14th, 2008 at 19:29 EDT

In a move reminiscent of the Grand Theft Auto IV downloadable content predicament, Fallout 3 will feature exclusive content in its 360 and Games For Windows iterations.

"I just wanted to say how much we love XBLM," said executive producer Todd Howard at Microsoft's E3 keynote today. "We'll be doing substantial exclusive 360 and Games For Windows downloadable content."

This essentially leaves the PS3 in the dust as far as future add-ons are concerned. We say essentially and not definitely because, based on Howard's wording, it's technically possible that PS3 could receive other Fallout 3 DLC not related to Microsoft's exclusive package.

We'll have more for you on Fallout 3 from E3 2008 soon.

I can't believe Sony is just sitting there taking all the hits! WTF!!!! To tell you guys the truth, right now, no amount of God of War 3 will ever make all of this better. Sony HAS TO HAVE something BIG, and I mean, BIG, to remedy all this bloodshed.

I really don’t understand. The PS3 has bin gaining some ground lately in that developers are being more fair to it but again with the disappointment. I know there aren’t as many ps3s out as 360s but that still isn’t enough a reason for all this garbage. What the heck is the problem hear. Is it Sony, the developers, or the media? Just what is it that makes every one who matters so angry with the system? There’s only so many game developers Ill boycott till there is nothing left to play.

If its like GTA4, by the time the DLC comes, everyone will play differerent games.  But sad nonetheless.

It's sound like another fate to the difficulties  of programming/development for the PS3. I've read articles with developers saying they build for the 360, then port over to the PS3. In fact, because of this is why Lucasarts is building SW: Force Unleashed on the PS3 first, then port to 360. I think if more publishers/developer do this, then it will be ok. At least Darth Vader is better than Yoda.

Sidebar: how about Microsoft direct rip-off of "mii" and "home" in their upcoming software upgrade?

 Whoopeee.......  No one except for the mega-fans will be playing this game or GTAIV by the time this content hits.  We'll see how much of it they even sell before quickly putting something similar or the same out MP.

BIG Friggin' deal,did MS's press conference,have ANYTHING about a new(or for that matter a good) game,it's E3,and MS's biggest announcement,is that they managed to steal FFXIII from Sony.Now i am more sure on what console is the better one,and it's definitely not the thief.

I think its time to chill Guys, seriously who gives a sh!t about DLC for Fallout 3 when the game will last for ages without it, besides Microsoft probably paid about $1 billion for it, thats what they are best for doing, tearing apart the gaming industry, sh!t they should join forces with EA and take over Take 2. Then were all screwed, besides I am really anticipating this SO CALLED SECRET GAME bbc.co.uk were talking about, I hope it makes up for this BS

Ok, to the guy that said he will sell his PS3 and buy an Xbox 360 because of this.

I had a 360 and traded it in for a PS3 because not only does Microsoft suck but so does their products.  Here are some reasons why:

->  My 360 got the 3 red rings of death (hardware failure) twice in 15 months.  When this happens they fix it but you are without a system for ~1 month.  However if it happens after a year without repair then you are SOL.

->  You have to pay for Xbox Live and quite often there are just a bunch of douchbags online who enjoy screwing up other peoples fun.

-> Microsoft kills good games, i.e. Shadowrun.

-> Gears of War wasn't half as good as the hype, Rainbow Six is way better.

-> Halo had it's time but it has past for most except the die hard fan boys.

-> Fable 2 will have a glowing coloured rice trail tell you where to go, this is supposed to add immersion by removing the mini map.

-> Microsoft sucks and is happy to kill gaming if it means they can make a profit.

->  Would you really prefer that Sony greased Bethesda's palms the way MS obviously did?  I will be buying Fallout because I'm a long time fan of the series but Bethesda is crap and I for one am glad that Sony didn't throw more money at them.  Seriously, think about the Oblivion downloadable content, aside the wizards's tower it was all junk whipped up to add to Bethesda's profit.

->  Microsoft sucks, they paid Bethesda for the downloadable content and then brought it up publicly just to infulence people like you into hating Sony, their main competition in gaming.

Hopefully I helped shed a new perspective on this, if not then I guess I'll just enjoy playing my new PS3 and not worrying about the third red rings of death breakdown.

@markwesker - You know what - I agree with you. PC is probably the go. Im not buying an Xbox now Ive spent way way too much on PS3. So I'll just stop buying PS3 games and focus on my PC and buy one of those new ATi 4870x2 cards instead. 

 

I look at the range on PC and its way better, I look at the resolutions (up to 2560x1600) and its 100% better, I look at the expansions & mods for games and its better, I try the online stuff and its better, then I look at the price for the same game and its way cheaper. Man Sony has gone limp dik this generation. Delays, none exclusives, less content, no home and more expensive - I'm ripped off.
