If the DLC is heading in the way of what The Pitt is offering, a new open area, great story, interesting characters, and detailed environments, basically more Fallout 3, then I am fine with it. As long as there isn't another Operation Anchorage experiment, all will be well.

This exclusivity stuff has got to stop. Sure MS paid for the agreement but Bethesda shouldn't even make that an option.

Yeah I know it's all about the bottom line but really this is frustrating. You go and buy a game for your preferred platform of choice and now you can't get content based on that original choice. I'm not slamming MS here for ponying up the cash but rather Bethesda for even offering it.

Bethesda should be charging both Sony and MS the right to have this content and the two giants should be charging appropriately. One should not have the ability to shut the other out.

Better be awesome enough to excuse not launching the CS at launch. Wait, no it won't be. I'm sorry, I'd rather have NO DLC if it means we can have the construction set.

Why do they say exclusively on TWO platforms rather than the actual point which is that it won't exist on the PS3?

When I see this it makes me wonder if they just hold out additional items from the main game just to nickle and dime us for this.

I mean why don't they put it in the main game? They don't want to hold the release date anymore?

Im sure this is just for expansion pack stuff like NOTN and SI. After all, they would not try and sell DLC scraps to PC gamers that have the construction set, right? Wait...we are getting a CS right?
