Bethesda Still Working On Getting All Skyrim DLC To PS3, Prioritizing Dragonborn

At least they're working on it.

I would be understanding of them, but if one rogue hacker can get it working on a ps3 by the simplest of methods. What really is stopping the ps3 DLC from coming out?

Lack of effort?
Lack of interest?
Lack of funds?

Who know's what's stopping them

I wish you could link that source. However, the problem for the PS3 is not, and has never been, simply getting it to run. The problem is one of system performance. There's another post on Skyrim's DLC issues with the PS3 and I have a train of comments on it explaining why it hasn't happened and is unlikely to any time in the near future.

just google "ps3 dashhacks" and ctrl+f "Dawnguard", it's still in the front page. The video showing it up showed that it was buggy, (as in texture, and physics buggy) but considering the guy just re-signed the code from the PC Dawnguard version to the PS3 and was able to get so much of it running, shows that if Bathesda was serious about their work and had had a team from sony help, they would have needed to put in would be about 1-2 weeks. and had a Bathesda standard working product (meaning it always has bugs.)

Again, it's about performance. The PS3 simply cannot be made to handle Skyrim (or any similar such game, note that Fallout 3, New Vegas and Oblivion were more stable on the X360 and PC) well.

Can someone please explain what's wrong with the PS3 when it comes to this? Is it the same reason Mass Effect wasn't on the PS3 until the trilogy pack?

That is, I don't know the reason why ME1 wasn't on the PS3

No ME1 was solely based on exclusivity by MS, as for the the reason for the ps3, most people say the PS3's RAM is limited. The security checks constantly being perform make for having a larger difficulty curve to code for it. Also many developers (who are already on a timeline) leave the ps3 and pc ports for last (or ps3 & pc) and when they get to the ps3, it's more difficult then it should be, so it probably creates unneeded stress and resent for the console. Sony doesn't make it very to work with either, they apparently have a very high coding standard, to make sure the developers don't half-a** it. Meaning even more resent for the system on their part and less desire t program for it. Or so I've been led to believe by a large portion of my research on the subject. Sorry if it's long.

Even the regular game still freezes my console. Am I the only one thinking we should get a huge discount on the DLC, or even releasing it to us for free?
I kind of feel that they let us go due to their love interest with Microsoft, and that their primary attention was on that game where you have powers and stab people in the face...or make rats eat them.
The point here is compensation for PS3 owners who are loyal to Bethesda would be appreciated.

I used to talk Skyrim with a co-worker of mine at work. You have to understand that when we first bought the game (last year around Christmas) that we were convinced that it was the best game ever. Well when Dawnguard was released I waited around for 30 days just so my friends with their PS3s could get it and we could go on talking about our new adventures at work. Well it was delayed so I went ahead and picked it up....weeks passed. My two friends with the ps3 versions of skyrim are both going on to twitter to read updates from Bethesda, and I am forced to stay ziplipped about how ho-hum Dawnguard is and hear them go on about how much they want it. Well, one of them ended up buying a 360 just to play Dawnguard (yeah I know) and he thought it was amazing ( of course there were parts of it that did touch on greatness, but it was definitly not worth the 20 bucks I shelled out) so here we are now with dragonborn...after all the complaining and the dawnguard I think I'll wait on a GOTY edt

Well hopefully Dragonborn gets to PS3 soon, its the best of the DLC by far. Dawnguard was kind of neat, but really flawed by awful, tedious locations. Heartfire was just a little distraction for a day or so.
