So it looks like they were holding the PC release back till they got it to work on the PS3. How nice...

I will enjoy an enhanced dragon riding, it just didn't cut it when I finished it on Xbox.

For the Xbox Players, can you Summon a Dragon to your side in Solstheim like Durniviir and Odahving and can your two Dragons come to Solstheim aswell.

I can only imagine how much money all these PS3 issues have costed Bethesda... Much more work, prolonged release dates, lowered reputation, and now 50 % less money from selling it. Good at least that they didn't give up, and I'm sure they learned from it.

They don't have much of a reputation to worry about amonst PS3 players....we've been screwed in Oblivion, Fallout, and New Vegas. We know they hate us.

@hlvrn........it isn't jsut a case of Bethesda needing to learn a lesson and finally getting rid of Gambryo no matter what they might call it but it is also a lesson for Sony and console makers in general with the pathetic memory that they give them. The PS3 architecture is far more difficult to progam for. Both the 360 and the PS3 have 512 of memory but the 360 memory can be allocated for anything while the PS3 memory is split in half and you can only use 256mb max for particular tasks like graphics or CPU. This was pointed out as a flaw when it was released as something that would bite them down the road and the last few years have shown that to be the case. Bethesda games aren't the only games the run worse PS3, most multiplatform games run worse on the PS3. Any piece of electronics is only as good as it's weakest link and PS3 has a very weak link in their memory architecture. I remember when the consoles were released that the recommended minimum for PC games was 512 of RAM. Consoles could get away with it because their OS has a smaller footprint but it only took a a few years before they reached their Zenith. If the next gen of consoles don't have at least 4GB of RAM at a minimum I am going to scream like a little girl. :/ That and they better be making Fallout 4 for the next gen of consoles.........I can wait a few extra months if thats what it takes. I like TES but I love Fallout.

Why do i get the feeling the Next DLC will involve something on Skyrim or hopefully away from Skyrim, but we will go to the Realm of Hircine aswell.

Hah! I totally agree with nathanj. I'm a PS3 user, such a shame that multiplat games don't shine on the PS3 system. Red Dead Redemption, anyone?
