Am I The Only One Who Spends Just About Every Minute Of The Time I'm At Home, On This Site Trying To Scratch The Itch?

Nope

No, im sitting here browsing the fourms while watching my preload download.

I keep playing Oblivion for an hour, getting angry, looking at games sites for an hour, getting angry, playing Oblivion for an hour...

It's frustrating, I can't get interested in playing other games because I know I'm going to ditch them as soon as I get Skyrim.

Yep, I said to myself i'll finally finish Final Fantasy 8 today...got to the Fire Cave and said F' it, came back here.

Its going to be a long [censored] wait. I hate Steam encryption

I think I've tried to kill Uriel VII about forty times this week.

Am I The Only One Who Capitalizes Every First Letter Of Every Single Word?

In all seriousness: exams keep me occupied until Thursday, and I'm ok with that.

Finding something to do to keep yourself busy really helps... Been working hard this week, trying to get everything done by tomorrow afternoon, going to my parents for dinner tonight... The week's flying by for me, so keeping busy really does help!

well, to be completelly honest, usually I would be scratching my Skyrim itch over on the Steam forums - *goes to check - still 'offline for maintenance' - sighs*

Love the Skyrim forum over there - not that I don't like this one as well, the steam one just doesn't usually move as fast as this one - if you make a post it doesn't end up buried three pages back before you have time to blink.

You're not alone. <_>

Eagerly waiting for my copy. Tried doing something to ease the pain, played Dungeon Defenders but stopped after one map, tried drawing but just can't focus. Ack, just get here already!

And of course, Steam forums are down.. *shrugs*

I do this but I can stop whenever I want. I swear

II tried studying a little, just can't focus on it. Haven't been this pumped for a long time. I feel like i'm 16 again, awaiting the release of Diablo 2

Well, look. I've nothing better to do than browse the forums and mess about in Oblivion for a bit coz Aussie game stores refuse to deliver Skyrim early. We must turn up at a store after 9am on 11:11:11 and no earlier. Tough when thousands in other countries already have the game and their official sale date/time is after ours. So, just killing time. Que sera sera.

Im in the Dilemma of having played Xenoblade heavily for the past weeks/months.
That being one of the greatest games ever made, I had to force myself to stop. It wouldn′t be good playing it along with Skyrim, the games are just too different.
I decided to focus completely on Skyrim for now, and then, why I start to wish to play something Else I′ll jump in a few hours before where I left and play it all.
There′s no way I could finish that before Skyrim comes out, it′s like the biggest game ever. (Well, until Skyim I guess). And as I′m just about to get to the part where the story should become truly epic, I decided to stop right there, so I′d be able to jumo back in perfectly later.

The downside to that is that I now have nothing to play until Friday.
I guess I′ll mess around with Oblivion a bit, but it′s so heavily modded, that It CTD all time

I've tried to play Gothic 4.. But im the same, I get frustrated with it cause its not Skyrim. So I've been modding a little bit, working on my weapons, and that keeps my mind of it for a little while, but then I decide to take a break and I come here and see if theres any more info for anything.

I've been playing http://store.steampowered.com/app/98800/?snr=1_4_4__13 off steam - it's a retro indie roguelike, very amusing, unique set of skills - playing on hardest settings with permadeath, it's managed to keep me entertained and is easy to dip in and out of so that I can alt-tab out to scratch that forum/skyrim itch.

I've been playing Sore on my PC and Dead Island on my Xbox but time just seems to moving SO SLOW. Even when I'm not thinking about Skyrim, the voice in the back of my head is constantly whispering "Skyrim, Skyrim, Skyrim, Skyrim..."
But the game will be in my hands soon and I honestly might cry a little.

Same thing here. lol.

I'm playing Fallout 3 in order to keep myself focused. lol. But I can't. I'm like errgrgrg Skyrim. I need my precious. lol.

I'm playing through Total Overdose. Old game, but I recently watched a video of it and realized I played the demo back in 2005, liked it but never got the game. It's fairly short so I'll probably finish it tomorrow. And if not, I'll just abandon it.

Well its between this and refreshing my order screen for the game -- "Not Yet Shipped" it keeps saying. (It must be refreshing from the cache, I'm sure that's it.)

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was busy posting in a fail troll thread. It actually worked pretty well.

Here, next time that you want to say this phrase just copy/paste this: "AITOOWSJAEMOTTIAHOTSTTSTI"
We all will understand.
