That's a nice looking shot, but it doesn't look like anything real groundbreaking. To me, anyway, it looks like a gussied up version of Oblivion. No matter, though, because I'm a huge Elder Scrolls fan. However, my computer will never be able to run it.

Really!?




Skyrim looks a lot more advanced than that to me. Also, Skyrim is a console game. Assuming the shot in post #1 is an unmodified 360 screen, I'd say it's groundbreaking in so much as that it looks better than anything I've seen on a 360 before.

Jesus! Let it off with the "this is a console game" BS.

We haven't seen anything gameplay wise.

I'm so ticked off with ppl saying that BS.

DA2 for example, I've seen people who haven't even played the game for more than 5 seconds say it's a "console port". Jesus, PLAY THE GAME, MAKE YOUR MIND THEN! IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE!

GHHHAAARGH!!!!

Just wait for the damn game, before you go ape****.

Whoa, wha... !?

Dowly, I didn't mean... whatever you think I meant. I didn't mean "it's a console game" as anything bad. Chill out!

Uh wait what??

No, your reply just ninja'ed there.

I'm speaking generally, something is wrong when PC people say it's because it's a console port.

I have only PS2, and I only use it nowadays to watch DVDs, so I think I have enough PC experience to tell what is and what is not a direct console port. And have in mind, I HATE xbox for Halo and what it did to FPS genre. But these days, if ANYTHING is wrong in a PC game it's automatically = blame the consoles!

It doesn't work like that! PC and console games have been well separated for years, except for few instances. So, stop blaming consoles because maker X can't make a game! Instead... blame Halo.

Edit: Balls.. that didn't make any sense.. did it?

EDIT2: Guess what I am trying to say is that no matter what the game is, and which platforms it is even available, if there's something wrong = blame them consoles.

Think the point is that even consoles can have good games. Arkham Asylum for example was a throughly enjoyable game, though it is about as "console" as it gets.


I don't get the comments. Game looks fine, yes it's pretty, and no I doubt they edited the screenshots. What's the point of doing ambient occlusion as an after-effect if the engine can do it in real-time?
