*** The Elder Scrolls 5 - Skyrim Official Thread ***

I'm not sure whether to get this or not.

I never really got into Oblivion, possibly because I played Fallout 3 first and going back to Oblivion it felt a bit dated with improvements to features and gameplay.

Oblivion does feel very dated now, but Skyrim is massive leaps ahead so if you liked fallout 3 then you should love this.
 
Will this NEED an install to HDD before it'll work as I only plan on getting a 4GB Xbox.

Cheers

I read reports of lower res textures or slow loading textures if not installed. It does not need to be installed but is recommended it is..

You could use a USB stick..?
 
Hmm, I think the only question left outstanding for me - PS3 or 360 :p

I just got a PS3 the other day and kinda keen on playing it on that, however I want to play it on the console with the best vuisuals/performance. I guess only a Gamespot review will tell, though I don;t want to wait for the review to come as it will surely be after release :(
 
Game sent me a message on "Sunday" saying mine was dispatched, praying to the elder gods its here tomorrow :p as Im off Friday and Monday, going to get a good long weekend in with this game, but still busy on BF3 so its all good. :D

Lets just pray I get it tomorrow :(
 
Well though a few posts back i said i wouldn't be getting this as i caved for MW3.

I'm getting it again and trading some games in i feel more exited about this than i did mw3

I know Sainsburys has em in already :P

Just like GAME: ****.
Really? I've used Game for my last 5 pre-orders (6 if you include Skyrim), and all 5 have arrived the day before release. Their website isn't as good as it could be after a recent 'upgrade' but I know they're working on improving it.

I use Game mainly for the Reward points though. They're generally no more expensive than anywhere else, and I've built up over £20 of points with them over the past year or so, so that's pretty much a free game for me whenever I want it :)

I got this yesterday and it's absolutely brilliant. I've played 2-3 hours and everything has been perfect, no glitches etc and I swear every NPC has had a totally new look and voice.

I prefer to not do the main quests for a bit and just explore and do side missions and there's so much you can do. Game of the year, already.

i hate you

Care to share which system you;re playnig it on?
 
Mine has just arrived as well, as day early from Game, as per usual. Lovely map too, though I can't see me using it much. Now I just wish I had an excuse to leave work early (and stay off tomorrow), as I want to put some serious time into this!

Which console?
Let us know how the visuals are on the system you are playing on.
 
Just picked up my ps3 copy, but won't be home until around 6pm so a while before I can fire it up.
