Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Ffs lol. The main cult following of TES mainly all agree we don't want multiplayer and Beth says themselves they are about the single player experience so why use that as a weapon. Stupid reason to downgrade any game :\.

If "no co-op" is the ONLY complaint, then, the Elder Scrolls is doing something right--especially when being advertised as single player only.

Oh really?

What about this anology then: if I buy an advertised multiplayer game, which focus solely on the multiplayer aspect, the fact that I can't play singleplayer supposedly makes the game inferior.

You think that is right? Obviously not.

Congrats to the Devs!

94 isn't good enough.

Seconded Must be a relief to see it so well received and scoring such high marks.

Can we gather up all links to reviews in this thread? That way we can have them all together somewhere.

I suppose I agree because it makes it simpler to find them all, but they all seem to be saying the same things anyway.

Supposedly the first 10/10 that that reviwer at wired gave out.

pretty much all german magazines (xbox version so pc version probably a little bit better) claim: it's what we expected, not less but also not more - and give it 90%

they all criticize the same two things mostly

a.) weak story / character / dramaturgy

b.) horrible menues


thats basically the major flaws, the later and the other minor stuff (same quests, dungeons, enemies etc. repeat all the time and get somewhen boring) can probably get patched or modded

story is an issue...we'll see

(quote from gamestar: story fits on a beer coaster and the characters have about as much depth as one, but who cares? that has to be expected from an elder scrolls...)....lol

Just a simple google search for skyrim reviews will bring you to A LOT of links.

From PC Gamer, end of the review:

luckily we'll have mods for the horrible menu

Simply amazing
Congrats to the Bethesda yet again!

Eurogamer gave it 10! (360 version)
Tomorrow is end of the world!

These germans dont know how to play elder scrolls maybe,I give story a 10,becouse you make your own story...

gamespot- 9. Can you believe that?

http://www.gamespot.com/the-elder-scrolls-v-skyrim/platform/xbox360

they gave it a very good mark...and again, i think they have a fair point...what we need is an open world like bethesda's and story and character interaction like bioware...

Gametrailers gave the game a 9.3

Weak story and characters? Well I consider this one of the strong point of the series.
No predifined character look
No MQ forced down your throat
No "Epic" story to distract me

Skyrim is getting good reviews
