Why did they allow unreal tournament 3 mods back in 2006/7 but not now for these games?

Bethesdas press release is pretty unclear. They say Sony won't allow mods how they are supposed to work "where every user can make whatever they want", but that doesn't really explain anything. Of course they aren't allowing mods where everybody can do whatever they want, no company will, there are guidelines for mods on Xbox as well, but the question that isn't answered is what in particular Sony and Bethesda can't agree on. There are some people saying something about the filesize and soundfiles, but there's nothing official.

I like how mods are now somehow a really big deal.  Yes, it's odd sony is allegedly not allowing them, but it's such a minor thing that is weird for people to get upset about.  Also love the people who keep saying arrogant sony is back.  They are far from being arrogant like the ps3 era.

It's apparently big enough a deal that MS decided to include them in a mocking tweet, but failed to mention that it's actually just 2 games. Like are we seriously using limited mod support in 2 games as a system selling feature now?

Yeah anything for MS to take a jab at sony(though sony has taken jabs at MS before too).  The fact that mod support on xbox wasn't seen as that big a deal to the majority before this is telling that it's not a big deal.  I hardly heard anything about console mods past fallout 4's release.

Add mods, 4k blurays and Scorpio to the chalkboard.

But hey, it's fine cause as we all know Phil Spencer really dislikes the consoles wars and MS isn't trying to stoke that with this at all.

I like the console wars within marketing (most of the time).

Hahaha!!  

I'm loving this week.  All these xbox and Nintendo fans in full on meltdown.  I guess that's what happens when you're angry with your own console.  You take it out on others.

yeah these type in marketing are great cause a lot of times they are all in good fun.  But when you try to take jabs on twitter like Major Nelson on the same exact day the news breaks it just reeks of desperation.

I can't find the general discussion thread, so I'm just telling you this here, because I know you're dying to know this: I'm getting drunk now.

I'm a very down-to-earth girl, so I'm sticking with beer.

Does anyone have movie suggestion for what I could watch with my roommate?

The Mist is a good horror film.

We've already seen that. It would be preferable if the movie was available in 4K.
