Skyrim: Dragonborn: 5 Reasons It's Awesome, 5 Reasons It Sucks

1. Giving Xbox Owners Priority

011 This is an issue that is well documented, and even as someone who owns an Xbox 360 (as well as a PS3 and a gaming PC), I find it irritating that Microsoft pay for exclusive content for their console which doesn't only deprive Microsoft's lead competitor Sony (which I can understand), but also PC gamers as well (which I can't), who should be rewarded for their loyalty to the Elder Scrolls brand above else. To me this just isn't really acceptable; why punish gamers and make them wait months for content that is already sitting there on another console? Of course, the publishers earn a hefty chunk of wedge from Microsoft for their troubles, but do publishers really think that PC and PS3 players are going to wait around with bated breath? They will have likely moved on to other games and might give these expansions ago at some point, if they can find time. Furthermore, do Microsoft think that this sort of practise sells more Xboxes? It's a very misguided mindset if so, and above all else, just extremely crass. What's your take on Dragonborn? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
