Angry PS3 owner

As a PS3 owner I'm really angry that the upcoming add-on releases are confined to Microsoft platforms. I'm sure Bethseda have made a pretty penny from the exclusivity but they're cutting out a lot of angry customers. I'm thoroughly cheesed off

That Sucks, i really feel for you man. That shouldn't be allowed, but it is micro-shaft we're talking about after all. If there was a petition to over turn that I would totally sign that even though I am a PC gamer. (we also have a PS3 in the house but not a working 360)

Actually, Bethesda and Microsoft aren't at fault. It's sony's fault for making an unbelievably complex hardware system known as the PS3.
As much as I hate bethesda for making crappy games as of late, I will give them kudos for basically working their tails off to get DLC content to all consoles their games are on, but it is rather hard considering Sony made their PS3's more complex than the human brain.
They aren't making money off getting it to only Microsoft and not both Microsoft and Sony, that's not how marketing works in the slightest.

In an interview with Bethseda just released by gamespy it is stated that these add-ons are being released as part of an 'exclusivitiy agreement' struck with Microsoft. If every other developer can release content across all platforms, I knew Bethseda we're milking Microsoft's teat to only release via Xbox and PC.
