Microsoft nabs timed exclusivity deal for Skyrim DLC

Probably some horse armor.

Whatever it is it’ll be on 360 first. Lol countdown to PC rage….

2 pieces of DLC within the first 30 days of release? Yea, I am betting this DLC is shit. Can’t say I care.

Unbelievable.

Microsoft, instead of buying exclusives MAKE exclusives. Sorry, but timed exclusives are NOT gonna help you out on the run.

@3 Nope. just the first two pieces will hit XBL first for 30 days – not two bits of DLC in 30 days.

Buy the time ive platinumed it and gotten most out of the single player, the dlc would have been out for ps3, so it doesn’t affect me.

All companies that do this are providing a disservice to the majority of their consumers.

i dont think Microsoft are thus type of guys that throw the money in air like nothing
if they are doing this moves that mean that it works for them just like with GTA witch was the first test COD and now Skyrim

@Steph – Ahhh yes… Completely read it wrong Anywho, with the months and months I will be spending with the original content, I don’t see this effecting me, as I like to finish games roughly 100% before even touching DLC.

Should be enough time to fully get into the game before considering adding DLC anyway.

Look on the bright side, at least there’s a chance they might have fixed the DLC’s inevitable issues by the time it comes to release on PC and PS3; Bethesda don’t exactly have a great track record.

So, MS want either same time releases or if something is on PS3/Wii first, when it’s launched for the 360 it has to be on level par with it’s current incarnation on it’s current host platform.
Then MS do this and it makes you realise that they really are hypocritical badgers.

Meh, I’ll be too busy playing free mods to care about DLC.

I hate DLC talk prior to game release

Keep jumping for that easy to reach Apple MS, meanwhile Sony are sowing the seeds for a fucking orchard.

P.s. I’ll be waiting for GOTY myself… Unless Skyrim is utter shit obviously… Hey don’t look at me like that! It could be!

Very nice, if only that was the case with the original xbox I would ‘ve never bought the second PS.

I am now officially very angry.

They DARE to do this? AGAIN?!

There would be no TES without us PC players.

I am not paying them a damn coin.

@18

You are kidding right? They did it for Fallout 3 and New Vegas. How did you think this game would escape this trend?

@18 To be fair thats a slight over reaction surely? I mean 30 days is no big deal. Plus as has been pointed out, you pc guys have a very healthy mod community to keep things Interesting and you know these dlc will have bugs… Waiting 30 days would be a good idea even if you’be got a 360 imo.

haha like i care! the game alone is more than 300 hours, soo i don’t have a problem waiting for the DLC’s…

They’re paying for 30 days of exclusivity… Man. Talk about throwing your money out the window.

When will publishers learn to NEVER snub their ORIGINAL fan base, the PC?

two words, Mod community, top that suckers.

what a bloody surprise -_-

@15

AMEN.
