Best review of the reviewers so far. The game may be more difficult to master than Oblivion because of it's sad UI but the sounds, graphics, the overall atmosphere of the game is nearly as good as Battlefield 3. Only thing I hate is how demanding it is on the graphics card. "My graphics card sits just off idle temps, and Ive yet to see it use more than 950 MB of memory on the VGA", why thank you sir for being so biased, you're probably on a gaming PC. I'm on a brand new, non-gaming PC which runs Battlefield BC2, BF3, Starcraft II and a few other games on high detail, but yet I have to be running Skyrim on medium graphics if I want good performance. High detail runs at a low 17-20 FPS for me.
