The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Far to close to fallout in its combat for my liking but the story,while utterly unoriginal is good enough to overlook that problem for now at least.

Looks stunning though i have to say.

Elder Scrolls' combat system far preceded Fallout, so it's the other way around - Fallouts combat is too close to Oblivion/Skyrim.

The linear story quest is about 0.5% of the game so you're missing the point entirely if you're using that as a yardstick.

Sorry matey but they've gone even closer to fallouts system for this one imo,being playing them since morrowind and yes Fallout did borrow a lot they've made both games very similar it seems to me,even with the bit when it shows you the kill in slow mo,i dont recal ever seeing that,but im old so i may have misleading memories of it.

Dragons..theres your story utterly unoriginal mate but i didnt say it was a bad story did i?

Its a good game and one im enjoying but it does nothing new to say otherwise is wrong but then again why change winning formula i;ve been playing RPG's for 20 years or so this offers me nothing new really but and i'll say it again its a good game and vastly better than oblivion which i thought was rather stilted tbh and the combat sucked balls in that game too if i recall rightly.

No for my money this generations RPG crown still sits with Lost Odyessey for the 360
 
You bad weirdos.

I got the Mace of Molag Bal. Bearing in mind I dont get to play as much as I should...(damn work/wife/kids) so it is my first awesome weapon!

I only use one handed swords. The best one of those I've got so far is the Skyforged steel sword that you get from the Companions.
 
You not doing the Daedric Quests, lid?

Not yet mate. I haven't been able to play much this week cause of school. This weekend I have a 4-5 page paper to write and it takes me forever to write essays so I don't think I'll be able to this weekend either.

I am training one-handed too, just chose to specialise in mace's.

And here it is.....

I think the graphics are massively overrated, it's a good improvement on Fallout, but nothing more than I'd expect from a new game. I've downloaded a mod to get rid of the washed out look and it looks much better. Just wish I had more time to play :(

I would disagree with you mate,the graphics are pretty good though as you say you can tell it runs on the fallout engine.

Getting a bit ticked off with the seemingly endless bugs in it now,more than a few times i've beat dragons etc and the bloody thing has crashed add to that the bug that making the save file bigger each save makes for me (and many others it seems looking around)makes the game pretty much unplayable at least untill Bethesda can be arsed to put a patch out for it.

Cant say i'll buy another Fallout/elder scrolls game for the PS3 as Bethesda seem unable to code games for it properly sadly.
