Oblivion PS3 delayed News

PlayStation 3 News by Tom Bramwell

10 November, 2006

Bethesda Softworks has revealed that the PlayStation 3 version of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has been delayed until the first quarter of 2007.

That actually means that the "Knights of the Nine" quest, originally billed as a nice added incentive for PS3 buyers, will debut on Xbox 360 and PC much sooner than it does on the new Sony platform.

The PC retail version is due out on 21st November in the US (24th November here), and is bundled with all the game's previously released downloadable content.

It will also be possible to buy the quest on its own if you don't much care for things like horsey armour - you'll be able to do that for US$ 9.99 through OblivionDownloads.com.

Xbox 360 owners will be able to buy the quest on its own for 800 Microsoft points through Xbox Live Marketplace.

You have to admit thats pretty funny.

After having being billed as PS3 content, it appears on 360 first.

I'll prob pick this up in the future. Distant future as I reckon I'm years away from finishing the game.

Still loving it though. Still love starting random fights in inn's between the npc's. Make sure there's an archer to make sure arrows are flying everywhere and sticking into random bits of scenery and bystanders.

Why would any company launch their games at launch under that logic.

It simply makes no sense to me to release this game at all, unless they are keeping costs down very low. People who really wanted to play this will already have done, unles they are very patient, add that to the game coming out when supply of consoles is low, I can't see this selling very well at all.

Damn! Now I'm sure to not be getting a ps3. The debt may also count an iota.
