Fallout 3 Developer 'Working on Lots of DLC'

In an apparently overlooked tidbit from a GDC panel earlier this week, Fallout 3 lead designer Emil Pagliarulo revealed that the team at Bethesda is hard at work on more downloadable content for the post-apocalyptic action-RPG.

"I can say we're working on lots of DLC," he said. "Lots of stuff brewing up here. God only knows where that may go. What famous landmarks can we destroy next?"

Bethesda has currently released two pieces of Fallout 3 DLC on Xbox 360 and PC. Each download is priced at $10 and each adds new quests, items and weapons. A third, "Broken Steel," arrives next month and picks up where the main game ended.

Thus far, the DLC has not made its way to the PS3 edition of the acclaimed game due to Microsoft's long-known PC and Xbox 360 exclusivity on "substantial" Fallout 3 DLC.

its a shame none of it will ever make its way to the ps3 huh bethesda?

Sayai jin6258d ago

Yeah, it is a shame. Maybe some DLC will make it's way over to the PS3. Fir those who do not own a 360 hopefully they have a PC and can get the goodies that way. A colleague of mine is a Fallout freak. He ran over and hijacked one of my 360 as soon as I downloaded the newest expansion.

It's a good game and no one should miss out.

Tempist6258d ago

Wait, wait. Maybe they sould work on making sure the DLC works well in the first place.

jack who6258d ago

shame ps3 aint getting non......what a waste

DavidMacDougall6258d ago (Edited 6258d ago )

Yeah from the reviews these things are getting the playstation is probably better off with only one broken bethesda game, it leaves room for the games that are worth it and work, hell even the ones that don't work get patched

Microsoft Xbox 3606258d ago (Edited 6258d ago )

You can have your lame DLC, while the PS3 owners get full AAA exclusives.

I bet you're regretting your purchase of the 360 everyday.

WhittO6258d ago

did MS pay for ALL exclusive DLC ? or was it just a few?

It seems really unfair that they make all this DLC and the ps3 version gets nothing.

NegativeCreepWA6258d ago

I think they purchased three, after that its up to Bethesda.

Unicron6258d ago

Unfortunate that many single console owning fans are being snubbed. It's a nasty trend this gen and spits in the face of the fanbase I feel. Exclusive titles define a console, yes. Exclusive DLC does nothing but give the middle finger to up to 50% of your fanbase.

pippoppow6258d ago

So true. I'm sure if the next top 2-3 multi-platform games were to get exclusive DLC for the PS3, 360 fans would be upset. Exclusive DLC for a multi-platform game on any system is a shameful practice. "Thanks for supporting our game but no DLC for you". Nice.

socomnick6258d ago

Exclusive dlc is actually a smart move by microsoft. Its not ment to annoy ps3 owners, its mainly for the large segment of gamers who own both consoles. Exclusive dlc to one platform makes it easier for those gamers to decide on what platform to purchase the game on. The early news of exclusive dlc for a multiplatform game , microsoft hopes will lead to better sales of that game on their platform.

Panthers6258d ago

Basically, not working on the PS3 at all.

Would be nice if they had New Vegas ready as well, especially because of the show.

Hopefully this doesn't have the same performance issues as Oblivion Remastered.

cloganart126d ago

I haven't seen anything on these performance issues? What's been going on?

walken7126d ago

Probably the Unreal Engine issues, I skipped it for that reason.

Snookies12127d ago (Edited 127d ago )

Throw in all the DLC as well, like Oblivion and I'll definitely bite. I recall having one trophy left to unlock on the PS3 version with 100+ hours in my save. When my save file got corrupted, lol. Very sad day.

To be fair though, Bethesda was trash at Playstation ports anyway.

Michiel1989126d ago

all devs sucked at porting to ps3 for the first like 3 years because no one had experience with the cell architecture. Even 1st party took a long while to get proficient with it, the difference between uncharted 1 and 3 is massive for example.

Extermin8or3_126d ago

Oh oh oh I can do this too. GTA 7 will be made at some point in the future. Fallout 5 will enter development in the future too

jznrpg126d ago

Everyone there should know most gamers want New Vegas and Morrowind more than anything.

Christopher126d ago

Which is why we won't get them. Gotta keep floating "support this one and it might happen".

BlaqMagiq1126d ago

Can't wait. Won't have to go back to my PS3 to play this when it comes out.

Fallout 3 remastered on the Nintendo Switch 2 is what we deserve, not the worst Fallout game

Fallout Day's disappointing news that Fallout 4 is coming to Switch 2 is a shame, as this 17-year-old entry is more deserving of a new port.

Why exactly do you think you deserve it??

Phoenix76198d ago

Fallout 4 isn't the worst game in the franchise. It's either Fallout 76 or Fallout BOS that's the worst.

gigoran8198d ago

PC and all other modern consoles never got a remaster of 3, but obviously the switch 2 was the tipping point to make it a reality... ahuh

1nsomniac198d ago

Meh, I thought 3 was garbage. I'm not a great fan of the franchise to be fair. They're like B-Movie films, really shallow and janky. 4 was definitely one of the better ones though.

UltimateOwnage198d ago

So the article makes a snippy entitled statement and acts like that is going to encourage a publisher to give them what they want. Okay.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro386d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.
