the Devs said it was...

And it clearly is, but then again the devs also claimed that it was running a brand new engine when in fact it's clearly a slightly modified Oblivion and still has quirks that date back to Morrowind. Doesn't stop it being a bloody increadable game on PC tho.

Wow! Your Poll is crazier than most of mine.
I keep hearing about problems about this game. The main thing is the glitches. Some people say they actually make the game more fun to play because they help out and are funny glitches. What do you players think about them so far?

Amen to that. Glitches in Elder Scrolls (including Skyrim) are always much more comical and entertaining than they are frustrating.

PC is the obvious choice for platform version BTW.



Game of the decade!

The majority seems to love it no matter what version is used. Also coming from Ryan's post the only glitch I have seen is with horses dissapering which is hardly even close to a game breaker.



well now we know. poll choices make no sense. thread review 7/10. no real content to extend the life of the thread.

The game received pretty high scores for seeming to have so many glitches.
Would everyone agree the PC version is better?
I ask that because I actually have a PC, so I could finally play it.


If you are willing to make some tweaks to some ini files you will have a better version than console, and once the mod tools go live there will be no question.

Even if you had a 360, you should buy this game on a PC. So far I haven't experienced any big glitches other then occasionally having the hotkeys not work in the menu, you can just use your mouse anyway.

The PC version will always be the best despite the 360 being the lead platform.  The modding community for elder scrolls has always been amazing and you can expect them to fix many of the glitches bethesda left behind.

Yes it sucks that bethesda did leave lots of bugs, but thats the price you pay with these types of games. Its not like uncharted or final fantasy where you can just test everything in the campaign with one or two playthrough. There is near infinite amount of things you can do in different orders, etc and they can't all be tested. The ps3 glitch with the memory is inexcusible but you should always expect some glitches with quests considering its impossible to test every single order you can do the quests in.



I got the Xbox version of Skyrim, because I got board with the game play of Dragon Age on my PC. Yes the graphics are better, but the slow click click click, ops clicked the wrong thing, click again process got old.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.

Tell me a funny joke!
