His previous career as a Wal Mart greeter didn't pan out.

While playing coy earlier this week by saying that Dawnguard had not yet been even announced for PC, Bethesda has gone ahead and pulled a full 180 and announced Dawnguard for the PC. That far off and distant release date falls exactly on the day of right bloody now, as in, it is currently downloading in my Steam application. I have noticed that some people are complaining that they can’t seem to find it in the Steam store. While it may be true that it doesn’t seem to be making the rounds in the small “New Releases” column below the top of the featured items page, the large splash picture that reads “DAWNGUARD” might be a strong clue as to where you can find it. If that doesn’t seem to be working for you, it might also be available in the Skyrim store page, under the available DLC.

Not much hope for the PS3 owners currently though, with an announcement on the Bethblog that they aren’t satisfied with the performance of Dawnguard on the PS3 currently, but are going to “continue to push” for the content to be released on the PS3 as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, no date comes along with the assurance that they’re working diligently to get the content working and in gaming hands as soon as they can.

Oooo, Skyrim also happens to be 50% off on Steam too. Fancy that.

Johnny Maloney

Having been a gamer since 1986 when his father brought home an IBM PCjr with King's Quest and Crossfire included, it seemed destined that PC gaming and Johnny Maloney's life would run parallel forever. Despite his occasional affairs with movies, books, music and single malt scotch, he's never once left the side of his PC. In fact, on a full moon on a friday the thirteenth, if you sit in his old chairs... chills will run up your spine if you say "you fight like a dairy farmer," and you can sometimes hear ghostly whispers in the night respond "how appropriate, you fight like a cow…" -- Attempting to contact Johnny at Johnny@Blisteredthumbs.net may be successful.
