Nothing wrong with releasing a DLC, in fact, I kinda like them. But making it exclusive for the Xbox version? Complete bullshit. I'm sure 100% of you agree with me too. Why they would possibly do this is beyond me, unless the exclusive deal Microsoft did nets them more money than the PS3 and PC versions combined. But still, its a dick move. I'm not going to rant about it anymore, but provide two theories for why its exlusive at this point:
1) They're focusing on the 360 versiom first because its that version that needs patches the most and 360 only allows patches in DLCs that get paid for (hence why TF2 hasn't gotten any of all that new stuff). So'll they'll patch the game and release this xpack at once. They also might be using a smaller team, forcing them to concentrate their efforts. So I guess we could expect the other versions to come out shortly afterwards. Or maybe they're being dicks.
2) The synopsis says that the player will have to team up with three other wastelanders to rob a casino. Could this mean Co-op? I feel like if it was, they would have been exclaiming it all over the place, and maybe I'm just fantasizing. I don't know how this would directly relate to choosing the 360 (split screen? they need to use xbx live because they don't have the hardware to run MP for the PC?), but I think this could be the only legitamite reason. Do I think its likely/possible? Only minutely, but heck, it would be awesome. _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT

the PC and 360 ones were released simutaneously while the PS3 one came out way after. This one claims it's "exclusive" to the 360. _________________ Please, read the signature rules of the forum. QUICK_EDIT
I'd put my life savings on it being released on other platforms with in a year. Saying it's exclusive to Xbox is basically just the MS PR department showing off & saying we have enough money to bribe Bethesda for a few months :/ _________________

the ps3 and xbox versions are only buggyer than the pc version as every patch must be approved by micro$oft and $ony first
excluding the pc, the every version is just a buggy unless new hardware/software complications are introduced, if you are making a bug fixing patch which also adds support for the dlc's new features it makes sense to keep the patch until the dlc comes out. _________________ Creator of TS:BoB and some other things that might be good when finnished.
