This literally looks like you just copy and pasted the best parts available off a website and listed them here for us all to read. At any rate, this is literally 20x what you need to play Skyrim, and if you do in fact own this rig, I want on your payroll.

I sense that making a wallpaper is going to be one of those things I'll try to do immediately when I finish the intro sequence, and it'll take me a day or so to decide which one I want to use...

Final update! I am now off to play this game for real. Enjoy the last few hours before this world is unleashed.


It looks promising. I Will say this... The keyboard mapping is .... awful. You will definitely need to remap to less random keys....

DUDE STOP TEASING US AND TELL US YOUR SPECS!!

and on another note, that dragon in the second screenshot looks absolutely badass and quite frightening as well, can't wait to dive into this game.

I hope my computer can run this ok

the screens look amazing!

I'm not gonna read through six pages of text to see if this has been answered yet, but how are you playing on PC? The game hasn't gone live on steam, and as far as I know there's no crack out and won't be until tomorrow at the earliest.

I live in Sydney. It has unlocked for Australians/New Zealanders. It is currently 3:05 AM November 11th here.

He's in New Zealand (or was it Australia?). Same as New Years.

Not trying to be an ass in any shape or form, but I sorta feel bad for PC Gamers. It pretty much looks exactly like the console. ( not counting mods ).

Having played on the Xbox as I wait the 9 hours for unlocking to pass the only thing I can say is WOW.
Sweet as [censored]

Not trying to be an ass in any shape or form, but I sorta feel bad for console gamers. (Just kidding, I don't really, I'm sure all versions are great) Going off of all the reveiwers who have been playing it non-stop for the past 2 weeks or so, the PC version is apparently by far the best version, with the exception of the UI and menu system...just sayin'. Taking that from several different professional review sites......so you can go ahead and feel bad for me meanwhile I will be


EDIT: Besides, ALL versions look great, who cares right!?

Well, the UI is not exactly worse, since it's the same as on console plus that usual half arsed hotkey system...

So it basically feels like a poor console port (the UI)?

The UI could be better, but also worse. I think it's okay. Somewhat annoying, but hellooo... It's Skyrim.

I can't believe people expected it to look better on PC. Have you learned nothing from pretty much every console-ported game that has come out in the past 3 years? Nobody cares about PC anymore, they just dumb everything down so it runs on antiquated software, and then they don't bother to improve it for the leading system.

PC owns as usual, oh well, I can console myself with the fact that PS3 looks better then Xbox

I have a feeling you thought I was trying to insult PC gamers. I wasn't. Also, I'm only talking about graphics.

Yeah... I need to get a PC that's capable of running this.

MUST BUILD MY GAMING PC!!!!!!

thanks for the great nerd porm dude

Wheres the AA?

yeah but Battlefield isnt an open world rpg

I like the art direction. As for the texture debate, NPCs look good but world textures are somewhat disappointing. I guess I've been spoiled too much by recent titles. It's good enough for me I'm looking forward to play it

Yeah sorry, no insult taken. I just get so used to jumping into a "PC something or other" thread to see some cool info or screenshots and then having some troll jump in and start spouting off stuff about PC elitists and blah, blah, blah. I think I get more annoyed that people make a big deal out of the different platforms more than anything. Honestly, I don't care. I have my preferred platform for my reasons, and others have theirs for their reasons. So it is equally annoying to me when a PC player jumps into a console discussion and goes on about their weaknesses, as when a console player jumps into a PC thread and bashes them. I mean really, why the division?

My post wasn't meant to be insulting either btw, I just thought it was funny to put it in the same language you did.

Totally badass. I can't believe they held these back all this time and spoon fed us 360 crap. Microsoft better have paid them enough to cover Skyrims whole budget. These are melting my face. Incredible. Midnight can't come fast enough!!
