Being able to learn and program three different platforms isn't easy at all. Knowing the languages for each one and the differences between them in extremely complicated, especially with the scope of Skyrim.

Just because you speak French and Spanish doesn't mean you will flawlessly speak Portuguese, even if it is very similar.

Programming is even harder. Plain and simple. You can't blame people for being human and not seeing the couple of digits and letters off in the code and messing everything up. Remember a certain patch that completely nullified magical resistances? I bet that was just made by tweaking a line or two of code. A very common rule is that you can't fix someone else's programming. Even with a team, it is extremely difficult. Just like OP said, not like the program is saying "Oh this is why Dragons now have Dragur heads"

 OP also has a great point that The Joker~ fails to see. Next gen is coming. That means that people will be buying their next console. Microsoft is really dominating on the LIVE concept and more and more games (even with PC) is going for a subscription-like service for benefits. More and more game companies are doing those "Season Pass" deals and if you can get those AND early access over other consoles, that will bring people in.

 Gold members already get discounts, contest promotions, better multiplayer and exclusive deals. Silver members still get the benefits of early DLC too.

 PS is going to be lagging behind if they don't make their consoles more programmer-friendly (loads of developers in PS3 love the capabilities, but hate the coding), and pretty much OP's post.
