Why the BioShock/Oblivion bundle is skipping the PS3
Posted on June 17, 2009 by Nick
 

BioShock and Oblivion are two of the most innovative first person games released this generation, combined winning some odd 80+ Game of the Year awards.  So when a press release went out earlier today revealing a software bundle containing the two, a lot of people's interests were piqued.  However, the bundle will not be making it's way to the PS3.  Curious, we contacted Bethesda to find out why.

"We did not co-publish Oblivion with 2K for PS3, only for PC and 360," the Bethesda rep said, "so our bundle with them would only include those platforms."

Looks like PS3 owners will have to shell out the extra dough for both copies.  Luckily, for the price of the $40 bundle, you should be able to find used copies for roughly the same.

Bethesda, have never supported the PS3, which pisses me off. Can you imagine a Bethesda game on PS3, so much space on the disk. I bought Oblivion but sold it, never finished it aswell, spewing.
