I love laughing at gheystation fans.

...dammit, it slipped! Ready for my 4 day ban now.

I don't own a PS3 nor a 360, I got the PC version. I just read the/watched the graphics comparison article at eurogamer.net and was amazed at the difference between PC/360 version contra PS3 version. Check it out: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/di...ace-off-skyrim

I have to agree, Uncharted is a great game, not only by it's looks, but overall, the only series I ever played on the PS3, still have to buy the new itteration of the series.

Btw, the empire's general Tullius in Skyrim is voiced by the guy who played the XO in Battlestar Galactica.

Does anyone know what the steam download for Skyrim was on 11/21?
I think I see a new file in the up until then empy file tab of the game launcher.

That was an update for the DRM, no fixes or additions. A "real" patch will be released next week though.

Ah, I see, looks like it's time to head on over to their forums to see what's going on with the patch.
I sure hope they are going to make the dx10 folder functional.

Hmmm my son has just started hassling me to get this for him. He has a PS3, but if he gets the PC version I will have to upgrade it, as he is using my old one.
So, comparisons between the two platforms would be useful...
Anybody?

Uther, this is fact-based-speculation (if there is such a thing ), but I have it on the 360, but I've read reviews for the PC and from how it handles on the 360 and the PC reviews I'd say go for the PS3, not the PC, simply because all the menu's etc. are clearly designed for a console and don't work so well on PC. I was going to get PC, but the shop had sold out so got 360 instead and am glad of it, even though the PC graphics are probably better.

I might get it again on the PC somewhere down the line if they patch the interface, since getting DLC is much easier then (I'm a Brit living in Estonia and Xbox Live seems very hit and miss here. It's supposed to be the most advanced country internet wise in Europe, if not the world, but a lot of big companies like Microsoft only just seem to be waking up to it), and of course there's the oppertunity to mod, but for now, from what I've heard, I would advise PS3.

That's jsut based on reviews for the PC though, so anyone with the PC version, feel free to correct me on that!

I haven't tried it on PS3 but I've seen some comparison shots though and graphically the PC version beats the PS3 hands down. You might also want to read this:

Now, I think there's a patch coming out next week for all platforms, I know it's coming for PC because that's what I've got. As for the PC version, you don't need a super PC to run this game well, even on medium settings it looks gorgeous. The interface took a few hours to get used to, after that I stopped even thinking about it, I think it's good. Also, it's much cheaper to get for PC.

I'm enjoying the game for what it is even though it won't launch, I enjoy the icon on the desktop, the lovely 5 page manual and the promises of improvements from the developers. I hate you haters!...............

Addman! Life is much to short to live with so much Hate!

After a detailed study, I found that contempt is much more efficient time wise and has the additional beinift of leaving you with better self esteam and personal image!


Oh! Saw skyrim playig on a friends laptop last night. Even on low settings the graphics look fairly acceptable. Can't wait to see it on a modern gaming rig!

Cheers!
