I hadn't seen it yet.
And I'm so happy to finally see a review from someone that tried it on the Ps3.
It seems like it ran okay. (I assume if it didn't we would have read a bit about it.)

That really comforts me.
Thanks man.

At least he didn't mention anything negative about the PS3 version's performance. That's good news.

Great preview. Loved the poem quest. My hype meter burst long ago, so I'm no more excited than before, but that's because it's physically impossible to be more pumped about Skyrim than I am...

Good stuff. I like the honesty and clarity about the graphical presentation of the game. No one should expect a game this huge to also be the best looking game around, but just like the man said, with all the different environmental and atmosphereic effects, it feels more real than something that looks twice as good. This game is going to be so epic.

seems like a level headed reviewer, but can it truly be random? random that every review i've read is always, "the reviewer goes north & does the dragonClaw quest, ends up in solitude etc etc etc"???
why not go SouthEast/West? try going along that rugged wall of the map where it looks like you have to arch all the way around and to get back would mean having to trek all the way back around from where you came?
is it truly that the reviewers can go Anywhere they please? :flamethrower:

I am starting to think that the Dragon Claw quest is dynamic. Regardless of where you are in SKYRIM it will be your first quest.

I think it's more likely that Skyrim just has a bunch of dungeons with combination locks, and a bunch of dragon claws on which those combinations are inscribed.

Apparently the ancient nords loved writing down their secrets on golden dragon claws.

Which would actually make sense, it does lead to the first word wall, and we all know the importance of the shouts in this game, so I see this as being a very real chance.

This is the first preview I've seen where the player has done the Dragon Claw quest. Most other previews have done the Golden Claw quest. Completely different, I'd imagine.

And it's not quite accurate to call it the dragon claw quest, there just happened to be a dragon claw in it that was necessary to complete the dungeon.

In the preview I read in PC Gamer a while ago, there was a graphic that showed where three of the other guys went, and it was completely different.
