No sign of an imminent PS3 launch
Bethesda has released the latest Skyrim expansion, Hearthfire, on the Xbox 360.
It's currently priced at 400 Microsoft Points (around $5.40) and it weighs in at just 75MB. The latest expansion pack for the action role-playing game allows players to build and customize their own home. You can also purchase a plot of land, which is accompanied by the inclusion of several rooms including a kitchen or library.
Child adoption is another standout feature that has been included, and it seems anyone -- even a vampire -- can adopt a child due to the lack of criminal background checks being carried out.
As for the expansion's potential release on the PlayStation 3, Bethesda recently stressed that technical issues may indefinitely delay a launch for Hearthfire, as well as Skyrim: Dawnguard.

I'll get this day one (maybe) when it comes out on PC. Might not be in any real rush to get it, as Borderlands 2 will have been released only a couple weeks beforehand.
