“We felt [PC and 360 exclusivity] was the right thing to do for Fallout 3.” is what he said.

This DLC is more than likely not to be free but still it's a nice choice to have when you have completed fallout 3 and seen all the 200 endings it has...

I don't know about you guys, but I don't care about DLC at all. I mean I got GTA4 for 360, but I AM NOT going to buy the DLC. What's the point of buying a game for £40 and then having to pay for DLC? Completely not worth buying.

1.10 - Is it just me?
Why does it seem that Microsoft constantly "donates" money for exclusive DLC on the games that need it the least? I'm sorry but GTA4? I highly doubt the statistics will prove that to have worked out for the DLC considering the game was boring/reptitive/looked like crap in some areas/etc. etc.

Now this Fallout 3 game? The game is 100+ hours long, has multiple endings out the wazooo and now they're buying dlc for it? Give me a break this game IS dlc...man microsoft are some idiots don't they see all they're doing is iritating us with all the money they throw out? it's not going to make me buy and xbox 360 because you keep buying all the DLC it's going to make me kill your boss.

I wonder what would happen if M$ ran out of money..

that is actually quite ingenious(for M$, not the consumer).. ship the 360 with small hard drives, buy all the content you possibley can, make them fill up those small hard drives, make them buy bigger hard drives to download more stuff, hmm..

oops sry my bad xP

This DLC doesn't bother me at all though but if at some random point they would choose to make achievements for the Xbox360 and skip trophies for the PS3, THEN! There would be hell to pay for both M$ and Bethesda!

And how do you experts with your insider knowledge know M$ paid for this?

Talk about grasping at straws. Are you that desperate that you have to attack.

You have a good game on the ps3 to play now, play it and stop showing your insecurities.

Nice headline VG247, like how you've twisted it. Very smart....

Perhaps blocking VG247 from N4G is the "right thing to do".

The game is still coming to the ps3 and I think 100+ hours of gameplay for this game is enough. Wont be needing extra DLC.

u guys said the same thing about GTA4, and I got alot of friends that bought that game and yet, they are all back to playing call of duty 4, gears of war, halo 3. I dont think the DLC will be as important as u 360 only owners are making it out to be.

It is a big deal to u guys but u gotta remember there are other big games coming around that same time aswell.

Not sure how much I'll care. I still own both Oblivion and GTA, yet I haven't been bothered to beat either yet. Seems to me, personally, if the game isn't MGS, then it will be pushed aside a month or so later for a better game anyways.

Still, it can't be the "right thing to do," when clearly it's just because money changed hands.

Lol, clearly is it?

Where? how do you know?
Is that what happened with £ony and alone in the dark?
They paid for it?

Of course as soon as £ony go back to their old ways and paying for extras (they did don't act like they never) then it will be fine.

I have played Oblivion MANY times, and the addition of the DLC like KotN were a very welcome addition to the game. So, if Fallout 3 has DLC like KotN, then it may be worth the purchase..

Ay...zealots from both MS and Sony will come in here not reading the article, and knowing the situation, will start their usual nonsense banter.

MS: "LOL PS3 CAN'T HANDLE IT! D3LAYSTATION"
SONY: "LOL MS HAS TO PAY FOR MORE DLC CUZ THEY KNOW NO ONE WOULD EVEN THINK ABOUT BUYING IT OTHERWISE!!"

God....another day of N4G..it's too early for this.

Thank God it works on the 360 too...just no mods :)

If M$ wants to be greedy then thats what they get.

I still can't help but wonder why Sony keeps getting beat to the punch on this stuff. They have been in the business longer and should have learned after GTA IV.

"I still can't help but wonder why Sony keeps getting beat to the punch on this stuff. They have been in the business longer and should have learned after GTA IV."

What they learned is that why spend tons of money for another empty promise and they can accumulate the same if not slightly less amount of sales upon the games release.

7.4 - Piracy FTL...
Whether or not you agree with Bethesda's decision to leave PS3 out of the loop on Fallout DLC, Piracy is a cancer on the industry. I've got more respect for that soccer mom from Nintendo's E3 conference than for game pirates.

I would rather buy it for the PS3 since durring the last game by them, Oblivion my Xbox 360 puked out on me in the middle of the campaign. I would like to finish this game without having to send in my console for repairs.

10 - I'm glad I have both systems
That way I can make sure I get the best multiplatform game. Look like an Xbox 360 version is the one to get. Cause both games are going look about the same. And with a HDTV, it really do not matter what system you buy a game for, when it comes to graphics.

10.1 - I respectfully disagree
While most of your comment I agree with, the part that doesn't make sense is you saying they both look the same so the 360 version is the one to get.

In my opinion, the PC Version is the one to get because you have more mods and more dlc than either of the consoles.
