    I'm trading in my MW3 for this. Upgrade will cost just £4.99, and Skyrim looks so much more fulfilling.

    Oblivion was poor compared to Morrowind in my opinion but so far I have a pretty good feeling about Skyrim.

    Re: News - Skyrim review round-up,the best ever Elder Scrolls game?

    mini review (from watching my sister):

    the new streamlined inventry - very annoying, with an inventory full of stuff, its hard to tell whats equipped and whats not. sisters sold her armour at least 4 times and lost a dwarven hammer just by visiting the shops.

    dialogue/questing - wandering about the towns does breathe atmosphere, but you have to pay attention to it and not get lost in the variety. my sister wandered up to someone and engaged in conversation and the only options were, "what happened to your son?" and "where are the shops?". alot of it doesnt make any sense unless you pay attention to whats going on in the background.

    even the extreme background..

    when going towards a major town there was a fight going on between 2 people and a giant. my sister ran over as fast as her khajitty legs could take her, they had long since killed the giant by about half way. when she got there they verbally berrated her for not helping and critised her for being a poor warrior who should give up on that profession.

    those things are whats letting the game down in me and my sisters opinion.



    lastly, heres a possible bug. get the perk for running and charging up a two handed power attack. you run at an enemy and charge up power atack, swing, release the movement keys so you should stop moving, but keep clicking the mouse to attack. you keep running about.

    my sisters fallen off many a cliff because of it.


    heres a few screenshots aswell, just to show off the graphics on high settings.
