Probably, but I'm going to give it some time first.

November's going to be very busy.

What platform?

Hows your plans for getting a gaming PC going?

And which other games in Nov u plan to get?

PC, inevitably.

Not bad; will probably build it in May or June. I'll easily have the money for it - I have the money now, I just want to wait to get the components until the Witcher 2 come out so I can easily run it at max for a good price.

I don't expect that Skyrim will take all that much hardware to max out, but we'll see.

ME3 is probably the biggest one that's confirmed for November. That game alone would put Skyrim on the backburner for weeks, as me and the wife will probably pour over 300 hours into the game. If Skyward Sword ends up coming out around that time, Hell, that would put even ME3 on the backburner.

What happened to your plan to save money for your pension?

I believe The Witcher 2 will be hard to max out. It will be exciting to see what hardware is needed to have everything on highest in 1920x1200 with high amounts of AA & AF.

So ME3 is in Nov huh? Is there an exact date?

It's not really a pension; I'm currently making enough to set aside $1000 dollars a month to invest in stocks that pay out dividends that I'll use to supplement my income. Right now all dividends are being directly reinvested into buying more stock, which has worked out very nicely so far. Setting aside money to buy a computer will be easy.

I also look forward to what will max out the Witcher, but the TV I'll be using as a monitor only runs in 1080p so the drain on the hardware should not be as bad.

Mass Effect 3 is set to come out on November 1st, ten days before Skyrim.

I'm going to need to more info to see whether or not this is day one on the PC for me. I will buy it, that much is certain, the question remains only how much I'll be willing to pay for it.

yes even if it's completely riddled with bugs


Like Fallout 3 and NV?

Never had any problems with Fallout 3. I was referring to the German version of Oblivion (in which they forgot to translate about half the game at launch, along with other bugs that were present in all versions) and New Vegas - yes.

But hell I even completed New Vegas without any patch, so I'll buy Skyrim even if it has more bugs (which hopefully won't be the case)


I've never had problems with either of them but you can sure see the bugs on youtube.

Not buying. I've had poor experiences with Bethesda games.

Is this a trick question?

Yes on PC, but voted PS3 in the most wanted thread so the PS3 version will seem higher on the list which will lead to PS3 being perceived higher in the minds of gullible posters!

I'll be buying it but not day one.

I want to read the reviews and message boards to see if it will run on my pc and if it's not completely designed around a controller. Otherwise I'll just get it on ps3.

It should run fine though, oblivion ran better on my old pc then on 360/ps3 with detail cranked up above max settings in the ini files. My current pc is at least twice as powerful, but you never know how badly optimized the pc code is.

Day one. Also WRPGS > JRPGS. Just sayin'.



It's just that simple.
