That's a pretty lame excuse. Even Oblivion didn't get all the DLC. Also, when did Sony say that free PSN was the specific reason for them not securing timed exclusives? Can you please link me to an announcement or interview in which a Sony employee stated that.

And yes, Microsoft is only indirectly to blame, if at all. Bethesda's the one who failed here, for the most part.
