Before anyone goes "pics or it didn't happen", I'm playing on the Xbox and I lack a capture card, so no luck there. Though I suppose I could take a picture of the screen with my phone (which I'll do after work, found this last night). Anyways, I was doing some work around Winterhold when my adventures took me a little North of Winterhold. Saw something black through the blizzard and decided to investigate. Sure enough, I came upon an Oblivion Gate similar to the ones from Oblivion though slightly smaller. When I got close, the sky turned red (slightly) and maniacal laughter boomed before it said "You shall not pass..." on the top left of the screen. I should note that the gate is closed and that my research indicates that these gates are random for every player and appear in different locations. So... Yeah.

Possible DLC?

You're the second talking about this stuff of "Oblivion Gate".

I am gonna check it myself today! And listen to me bethesda forum! I'll post the pic if that's true!

You're the second to report this. Gates appearing NEAR the towns.

I will check if that's true ??

Next thing I'm gonna look for is Gnomes and Dwemers.

Now I am myself a Mythbuster of Elder Scrolls.

Mods have already said it's a lie.

This thread, as the others, has been reported.

I'm getting annoyed with this stuff of Oblivion gates in Skyrim.

What's next? Gnomes.. someone already said about Dwemers..

Arhg.

Why do people do this? Why stop playing to come online and make a meaningless post about Oblivion gates? Just play the game

I bet it was Elvis talking at the gate.

Pix or it didn't happen. I am calling shenanigans. If I am proven wrong, i will happily re-open this thread.
