It's freaking AWESOME!!!!!!!!

I'm just getting into it (level 11) but WOW what an amazing game.

I hope I don't have the lag problems some other users are having.

Lag is a MAJOR issue for PS3 players. Not much issues reported for X-Box users or PC players. There are many bugs but not like they are encountering on the PS3.

I'm using my X-Box to play it.

Glad I don't own a PS3, they get some *SQUEE* ports.

Enjoying it?

This game sounds interesting. And if I played games like I used to, it would be even more interesting.
But this game sounds HIGHLY addicting! I've heard stories of men losing hours and hours of sleep over this.

Sounds as if this game never ends. I personally like a game that has a finite end to it.
Sure, there may be side-quests to play, but Skyrim sounds like digital crack to me.

So favourite quests folks?

Not long finished the cannibal quest that starts in Markarth, pretty creepy but very cool and got a amazing reward (a daedric ring).

Ive heard alot of talk about the Hangover quest which Iv started but never seem to get around to tracking down what happened.

i will probably get this for the pc. I wish they would design games specifically to take advantage of the ps3's hardware and not port the x-box version -

Yeah if you cam definitely get it for PC. Mods are just starting to be released, Iv only tried a couple such as a cool basement hideout.that libks your houses and a weapons pack which introduces weapons from Oblivion & Morrowind.

I thought about buying Skyrim this weekend as I have a gift card left over from my birthday and Christmas but knowing I would need to sink waaaay to many hours into the game put off the purchase for a while longer, especially with Mass Effect 3 right around the corner but I will probably put that off as well as I have enough games already. Bummer
