I'll wait for the bundled GOTY edition (hopefully won't take long). I'll get it on Steam and then PS3 for a physical copy.

yeah, that will definitely not be out before summer of next year. it's not worth waiting for 9 months to save $15

He must not want the game right now, so he can wait.

PC [QUOTE="Arach666"]PC obviously,mods will have to fix it just like with Oblivion.SaltyMeatballs
And how long will these mods take? I will probably complete the game the time good mods come.

Some will come out pretty soon but the really good ones(overhauls) may take a few months,wich is why I may not buy Skyrim this year,but that remains to be seen I guess.

Besides,some mods are always a great reason to get back to the game,since they change lots of stuff and add new contend. Look at the OOO for Oblivion,good stuff and actually made the game great.

PC, I'm sure it'll have some problems that I'll want mods to fix:

I wouldn't enjoy Oblivion nearly as much without realistic leveling.

He must not want the game right now, so he can wait.

his post makes it seem like he's waiting for the express purpose of getting the GOTY edition, which is stupid considering the piddling savings. not to mention he says "hopefully won't take long", meaning that he DOES want it sooner than later. so you really don't know what you're talking about.

actually his whole post makes no sense. he going to wait 9 months to try to saves a few bones and then he says he's buying it for two systems. then he says he doesn't mind waiting and THEN he says the hopes it'll come out soon.

my mind is full of #$%^ right now from his logic.

No No. You get a 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty for that one! Nothing wrong with getting it for consoles, as we all know, some actually prefer consoles over PCs. Isn't that a shocker!

There is no way that anybody, assuming they had a decent gaming PC, would play Skyrim on console. I can understand shooters and a lot of other genres, but when you get Elder Scrolls, the UI is abysmal on console, there are no mods and ES has probably the largest mod community out, the graphics are bad, the game is buggy as hell since there are no unofficial patches...... If a consumer is fully informed and has a decent gaming PC, I cannot find a single logical reason why they would choose console over PC for Skyrim.

That blanket statement is absolutely wrong. Lots of people enjoy Elder Scrolls games perfectly fine on consoles. It's ridiculous to say that getting it on consoles is "doing it wrong" because not everybody wants to play games on a PC, and those people sure as hell aren't gonna spend $100s of dolllars on a gaming PC to play one game, so it makes absolutely no sense to say that, other than to troll console gamers.

I don't have a gaming PC.Its not that I can't afford one, I just choose not to, well at this time anyways. You say the graphics are bad on consoles? From all the videos I've seen of the 360 build they look great! Maybe your spoiled and are used to these high end, out of this world visuals, but I'm quite content on how the game looks on consoles, and I will be doing it right by playing on my 360 when it releases.

Exactly. I would've just double stamped your statement if I had read it before I posted mine. Well put. Most console gamers don't want to hear that noise and that is what gives PC gamers a bad rep. I'm sure most of them aren't like that, but it's the ones who try to convince people who game on a console that their gaming platform of choice is inferior. If I drive a 06 Honda Accord, should the guy that pulls up beside me with the 2011 Cadillac tell me that I'm wasting my time driving that crap, and I should take it straight to the junkyard? Whew!

Well said. I too can afford a gaming PC but I don't want one. The game will look great on 360 and PS3.

All my points are true though, that's fine if console owners enjoy their versions, but if Oblivion is to go by, expect what I said to happen.

Console game is sub HD..... Skyrim+mods will look amazing. You actually have to see it to realize how much better PC gaming is in terms of the experience, and once again, the UI on the consoles for Elder Scrolls is abysmal. My gaming PC is pretty bad, especially compared to some of the ones people on these forums have, and the difference is still immense. I never said people should buy a gaming PC for Skyrim, I'm saying that if they had a good gaming rig and a console, there is no reason to buy it on console. You still haven't given me one good reason why console is better, other than 'it's fine on console', which it is, but it's miles better on PC. Heck, I played Oblivion on PS3 before I got my PC. I was skeptical of this so called PC advantage. I ate my words 10x over.

I'm not sure. I'm trying to decide between:

  • Getting trivial PS3 or Xbox achievements whilst playing through

or....

  • Playing a much better looking version
  • Having fan made weapons and armor
  • Having UI mods
  • Having graphical mods
  • Having more variety of control, including KB/M
  • Having a steadier framerate
  • Having better sound
  • Paying less for it

Good analogy. As console gamers we're well aware that the PC version of these Western games are superior, and that user mods add more content, I don't think anyone would deny that, but to claim that we are "doing it wrong" and other similar snooty comments are just looking for a fight because anyone with sense knows it's unfounded. It's not like the heart of these games live and die on mods, and games like these are filled with content anyways.

Bethesda wouldn't bother making console versions if they thought they were total crap. They're not. I've enjoyed Oblivion and Morrowind, Fallout 3 and New Vegas perfectly fine on consoles so I don't see why Skyrim would be any different.

Either PC or PS3, but most likely PC. The modding community for Bethesda games is pretty amazing, and it doesn't have any sort of splitscreen or exclusive content or multiplayer I'd want it on consoles for. On PS3 I'd want it for the trophies since I have a pretty sweet level, but the realization of how those accomplishments aren't real or productive kind of humble me and make me want to stop caring.

Honestly though, Achievements and trophies are pretty addicting.

360. I wanted it on PC due to mods but opted out because I enjoy gaming on my bed with a controller more than with a keyboard and mouse.

No gaming PC, so I'd want the 360 version, but my 360's not hooked up to the internet... so no patches, so I'll probably get it on PS3 because we all know each version will need a patch or 3... If the PS3 version is gimped badly like FO3, I'll just skip it or get it cheap. I really want the 360 version to be playable completely out of the box but that probably won't happen.

PC, I want to future proof my purchase with user made mods, plus it will have the best graphics and I like having control of customization options (hope there are some though).

[QUOTE="Arach666"]PC obviously, mods will have to fix it just like with Oblivion.trollop_scat

Yup, and I can play it at 25x16 resolution on my 30" Dell monitor while console kiddies are stuck at 720p and no mods. Damn it feels good to be a Hermit...

I kinda take offense since I'm a consolite and not a "kiddie". And oh, 720p is so horrible... go play a PS2...sheesh

I'm fairly sure Skyrim is on a whole new engine and New Vegas used the same engine as Fallout 3 and Oblivion....

Will probably look better on 360 like Fallout Vegas though, since that was their latest game and uses its engine

I'm fairly sure Skyrim is on a whole new engine and New Vegas used the same engine as Fallout 3 and Oblivion....

Does not seem like a new engine TBH, i think it was confirmed as an updated Vegas engine
