Why the BioShock/Oblivion bundle is skipping the PS3

Nick @ PS3Center writes:

BioShock and Oblivion are two of the most innovative first person games released this generation, combined winning some odd 80+ Game of the Year awards. So when a press release went out earlier today revealing a software bundle containing the two, a lot of people's interests were piqued. However, the bundle will not be making it's way to the PS3. Curious, PS3Center contacted Bethesda to find out why.

Well obviously some people care... the announcement is sitting at 200+ degrees on the front page. Bummer it's not coming out on PS3, I personally would have loved to pick it up, but it's a legit reason at least.

price is lower, both are pretty old though and a decent PC shouldn't have a problem playing either and those are the good versions of those 2 games.

Wow, 4.1's got a Carnivore CD cover for an icon. Didn't expect to see a fan of theirs here, assuming you know where it's from and didn't just grab it from somewhere else cause you thought it looked good.

"BioShock and Oblivion are two of the most innovative first person games released this generation."

Lol? Bioshock is pretty much a remake of System Shock 2 but with a different setting. Oblivion just builds upon Morrow Wind and other open world RPGs. Good games? Yes. Innovative? No

7.1 - Thats exactly what I was thinking
I laughed when I read "innovative". In fact, Bioshock was a downgrade from System Shock 2. Hell even Oblivion had some things you couldn't do that were once able to do in Morrow Wind

Why it's really skipping the ps3. Both games can be found for under 30, if not on all platforms.
