Elders Scrolls V Skyrim

[Legend_in_blue]

Where did you hear it is being optimised for the x-box?

Bethesda has already announced that Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim has been optimized to run on the Xbox 360, but this doesn't mean that the game will look best on the consoles. Todd Howard recently described the benefits of playing Elder Scrolls V on PC. In a recent interview, Todd Howard told our source that any modern PC would run Skyrim just fine, but there's plenty more to be expected for higher end PC's.

U Mad Bro?

It must be the years of owning a PS3 and hoping for news that it has finally trumped the 360 on a multiformat release. Only for hopes to be dashed eh?

On 360 it even ships on one dvd. Yes, one.

Sorry PS3 people, you can't even get one over on that score either.

Just kidding... I'm sure it'll be just fine on whatever platform it's on.

Do I get this on PC and risk not playing it that smoothly but have the leisure of playing it whenever I like (PC is my domain - TV is shared), or do I get it as gauranteed playable, but maybe slightly less spangely, on my PS3?

Decisions, decisions.

I would seriously consider getting both if your PC is up to it.

[stripeyfox]

The more I hear about this, the better it gets. Seriously tempted to get this on release, although I've got to weigh up the fact that I'll probably never get enough time to put in to it. But it looks amazing!!!

For those who are wondering, when they say it's been 'optomised' for 360, it means they've had to scale everything down to make it work on the 360 due to it having less power than both the PS3 and PC.

The console versions are basically gimped so that the 360 users are getting the same experience from the game as PS3 users are.

The fact that this is being optimised for 360 is neither here nor there really.

We're now 4 years down the line and any multiformat release is always equal or better on 360 compared to PS3.

By the time PS3 is showing its true power, Microsoft will go out and launch 720. Simples.

As for this game, this walk in the park, a nice quiet stroll, sightseeing, the complete opposite to DS, it will hopefully live up to the hype. Will it be DS good?

I'll put money on the table that it isn't anywhere near as intense as DS is.

Debatable

Uncharted 3

Really really want this game!

However, When I buy games like this I'm so easily addicted to them it's unreal. So I'm resisting the urge to buy it on release and wait until January till my exams are over..

Could you not connect the PS3 to another screen, like that of your PC?

[Leicester_Loyal]

Getting this for sure.

Also theres no footy next weekend, so will blast this 24/7.

I've given into temptation. As I was trying to stop myself pre-ordering it. Too late now.

[Fox96]

When my mate told me about this i ripped him for it, at first the 'Elder scrolls' sounds like a terrible game.

After seeing the advert, i am getting this, it looks absolutely epic.

[Legend_in_blue]

I'm 35 hours into Dark Souls. Can't see myself finishing it before the release of this.

It's going to take a lot to be better than Dark Souls - one of the greatest, most challenging games to be released in years.

[Adster]

Because I've pre ordered from my local Gameworld they're giving this out a day early

Won't be able to play it till Sunday really much, I know what my plan is Sunday though

[Legend_in_blue]

To be expected.

This, AC:R and the completion of Dark Souls. That's me sorted 'til next March and ME3!

[stripeyfox]

Gonna pick this up on friday morning as have a free night to play it friday evening and don't trust a pre order to turn up on time. May even chance my arm thursday to see if i can tempt the games shop to sell it early...

[MrSpaM]

Anybody know anywhere in Leicester thats doing a midnight release of this? cant wait to play it

[Petchy]

Mine just came in the post.

[stripeyfox]

Just picked up my copy from a shop in Melton with a more liberal attitude to release dates. Gonna get stuck into this bad boy tonight!
