[QUOTE="loosingENDS"]

[QUOTE="gamebreakerz__"] I'm fairly sure Skyrim is on a whole new engine and New Vegas used the same engine as Fallout 3 and Oblivion....gamebreakerz__

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

Nope, 100% new. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_V:_Skyrim

But in your own link says it is Fallout engine

"The resulting game engine was dubbed the Creation Engine, which was based on the Gamebryo engine used for Oblivion and Fallout 3,[17] and will be utilized in the production of at least one of Bethesda's projects beyond Skyrim"

.

So, it is just an updated Fallout engine

That is how engines are developed, eg the Cryengine 2 is based upon the cryengine 1 etc, all engines are updated versions of other engines.

That is what i was sying, that it is not a new engine and is Fallout engine, so the game will probably look best on 360 like Fallout

Also there are new engines of course, not every engine is an update of a previous one

Name a single engine not based on a previous engine.

Every single 3D engine after the 2D era of course

All engines started somewhere and not from the same one either, Crytek, iD etc each made their own

Sony phyre is also a separate engine and many many more, many developers make their own engines from scratch too and dont lisence one

It wasnt a complicated question, name a reasonably recent engine that is not in someway based on previous engines.

THe question was to name an engine not based on previous engines, not difficult.

Do you think windows 7 is not based on previous versions of windows?

[QUOTE="-Unreal-"]

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

999realthings

I think you get trivial achievements for Steam whilst playing through anyways on the PC, so I guess PS3 and Xbox lost those perk too.

The PC game is unfortunately $60 too, but all those other bullet points make the PC version vastly superior.

PC version for 3 reasons:

To make it not look bad.

To make it perform at decent and stable framerates. Crysis 2 set the acceptable minimum on consoles at 24 fps which is unplayable.

To ensure that the game will some day not be broken and borderline unplayable, courtesy of modders.

When I get it I'll be getting it on the PC. The modding support and modding community make Elder Scrolls games last years longer than the original product.

PC for the Mods. Every one loves them Mods! I might also get it for the PS3 and borrow one for the Xbox to run comparisions and start i giant troll thread so the top topic in System wars for a month will be just pictures of the same game over and over.:cool: haha

People that don't care about mods are ignorant, lazy, or just generally stupid. But the other reason you mentioned is completly valid.

No,they're not.There is no problem with simply not caring.Not everyone is into modding.

yawn...so a retail game never really is a finished game because of mods? good gawd. i intend to play the game that i paid for, that the devs created and not wait for months to play the "full potential" game.

or it could be that we really dont care....what do pc gamers care? its not hurting you, it makes no impact on your life if i want to play skyrim on a console instead of a pc. no one is claiming the console has an advantage. its a matter of preference

did you read that post... it was clear to me what was meant... the person was saying he/she doesnt care what you get it on, and nor should you

why should I or you care what we get it on?
