I dunked a bitch's head in a bucket of ice water one time when she was OD-ing on Xanax. Worked great, but there was a LOT of paperwork afterward.

Re: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
"Epic" doesn't do that trailer justice.
I'll be buying this on day 1.

This is a pretty good article comparing the improved looks between TES4 VS TES5

I have it on pre-order, but I'm thinking of swapping that money over to pay off the preorder of the new Deus Ex. I'm very wary of Bethesda and new game engines.

Re: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
I no longer buy video games 'on day 1'... even the new awesome MMO...
I have been burned way too often over the past 20 years...
The press and 'buzz' is always for profit and generally doesnt reflect the actual product. I actually broke my rule for Fallout New Vegas on the strength of Fallout 3... and we all know how that steaming pile of buggy crap worked out.
I wait 3, 6 or even 12 months down the road, wait for patches, reviews... that sort of thing to make sure I dont waste my money. I still get burned ever so often, but buying a 'bad game' off of hype angers me.
I have worked in the Video Game industry and the hype engine is almost as important, sometimes more important than the actual game...
Wait for the reviews, or waste your $50

Re: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
I watched that trailer and I couldn't help but think I recognized the voice.. Max von Sydow of course, I'd buy any book he read on tape if he ever did one. Especially to a score like this one.
austere [ɒˈstɪə]adj
1. stern or severe in attitude or manner
2. grave, sober, or serious
3. self-disciplined, abstemious, or ascetic
4. severely simple or plain an austere design
[from Old French austère, from Latin austērus sour, from Greek austēros astringent; related to Greek hauein to dry]

This is usually the rule I live by. I have waited for a year or two later to purchase a game. It makes for a better experience (patches and whatnot) and is obviously easier on the wallet as the game is cheaper or I may not buy it at all based on reviews. However, I am breaking this rule left and right this year. I got Reach on launch day and I have preordered this.

Re: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Any of you computer gamers out there want to take a guess at what it it going to take to run this game? Im considering building a gaming computer so I can take advantage of all the Mods for computer games like New Vegas. BUT I dont want to have to buy a new graphics card in November if I dont make a wise choice...

Re: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
OW that looks damned good!
It reminds me of the Vrykul of Northrend in the World of Warcraft: Wrath of The Lich King expansion. Of all the content in WoW, a lot of it was aimed toward Ye Olde and Nordic, so I had a ball. But the Northrend stuff was my favorite. So since then I've been wishing there was a game that would just take all the Northrend content and make that into a game. Is this a new direction for Elder Scrolls? I admit that I've never really given the series much thought.
I think I'll definitely try this - but will probably wait a while before I actually buy it. I'll let other players pay to beta the bugs out first.
