Oh, see I didn't suspect it would be the PAX demo. You're sure then? I'm prone to believe you, and that sounds better anyway. New video is new video, even if it will still probably show the same route. I really wish they'd show more, it doesn't have to spoil things. Plenty of other games are showing lots more, I think some cool new info would really reel in the crowd. I'm pretty sure .. heres the tweet .. https://twitter.com/...999360397840384 "Nearly there on video. Todd has to record VO. We lost a day with delayed travel back from PAX. Almost there." Not sure that it means it really is PAX, but I do hope it is. It never said it's a PAX video in the tweet, just that they lost a delay from traveling back from Cologne, DE. The reason I've kept thinking it's QuakeCon's video is because they said in the beginning of it that they'll release the video in high quality, and they've yet to do that. No it's the Quakecon one. All it says is that they lost a day from PAX. Not sure how you got that it is the PAX Demo. I mean I forget where but they said that the Quakecon demo was the one to be released.

I loved Demon's Souls. Only thing that got me mad was it took me 3x longer than Oblivion to make a good looking character.

I'm sorry but that's just funny: I've never ever seen a strategy guide give tips on such minute things as combat anywhere close to competently (or thoroughly). They're good for maps and pointing out where the cool hidden things are but not in actual discussions of builds and strategy. I remember the Dragon Age: Origins guide recommending Shapeshifter for a DPS-oriented Mage! (For those who don't know, Shapeshifting in DAO is when you play a spellcaster who doesn't cast spells and instead runs up to things and punches them. There's not even the excuse of it being a warrior/mage hybrid because the Arcane Warrior specialization already lets you smack things even better than an actual Warrior can.) Actually the NV and FO3 Guide had something very similar. I think basically the same thing.

Why do you need to re-post? Just edit this post...I don't see the point. Because of <br> and everything else. When I keep editing the post it gets bad saying <font> <ariel> and more and even if I delete everything it still does it.

Found out that it isn't true open world for Dark Souls. Just everything is connected. Man, they advertised it like it as great all Oblivion like. I do get mad when Demon's Souls fans say that Skyrim copied Dragons from the game or whatever. One Dragon's have been in TES since the beginning if they do their lore research. Second the dragons look nothing alike. Third to say that a dragon can't be in so and so because its copying is like Elves or something not being in Fantasy. Just saying whatever those fans say they are wrong on each one. I like Demon's Souls and Dark Souls but seriously do they have to start an argument? Sorry for my rambling.

Need to re-post.

Found out the Skyrim Strategy Guide will be 592 Pages. Among other stuff too. The side quests are in it but minor because of the Radiant Story. If I remember right it would be 100 or more if the Radiant Story thing didn't happen. Here it is below. The side quest thing isn't full it outlines what you have to do. "• Complete walkthroughs of every story and side quest help guide you through the deep storyline; there are many choices that affect your game, and we cover them all! • From the five major cities to the open expanses of wilderness and mountains, you'll never be lost with over 130 fully-labeled maps! • Master the skills to battle dragons, forge the best weapons, and finish off foes with our thorough combat coverage. • Customize your character: Every weapon, spell, perk, and ability covered. Plus, complete information on all 18 skill trees and detailed information on cooking, farming, and mining. "

It's the Terracotta Army! Well if You look at them in the factory. As for MW2, yes it costs $50 Million. Skyrim will cost $100 Million though.

There is still a lot we don't know. We don't even know 1% or so of the game. As for the tech and consoles thing I saw a Wii at Walmart for $700 when it came out. I was like isn't that illegal they said no. But seriously in a dozen years or so we will have tech that will laugh at things today. I mean I am sure one day we will get past the peak we are at now. I mean seriously a 1961 Supercomputer costed the U.S. 1.1 Trillion for one PSFLOPS when today it would be $1.48 to run it.

I've seen a lot of those games and the fans. Funny thing is Skyrim got the most people that will buy it before the Year is over for Game Informer. More than any other game. Anyways it's not like Skyrim isn't 2nd (Last time I checked.) On the 360 Top rated. Fallout 3, Oblivion and Skyrim are in the top 5 so Yeah popularity doesn't mean good. Kinda like Justin Bieber.

Todd Howard agrees with you. So do I. If I remember he said it should be around $20 to $40. Did anyone read that? I think it was on the PSM. Here it is: “I’ve thought for a long time that games are too expensive. I don’t put us in that category of course – for what we give you, for sixty bucks or however many ‘quid’ it is. That’s a lot of money for entertainment, so I think the good news is that in certain markets- PC, iPhone, mobile – we can see prices coming down. But I do think industry-wide we would benefit from more games out at $19 or $29. I would try more games. Because I’m not going to try a game for $60. It’s a tough decision. That’s why people read reviews and previews, because it’s not only a money decision, it’s a time-investment decision. It’s not like going to a movie.” – Bethesda’s Todd Howard to PSM3 on why not all games should cost $60.

Seems the Kudos system is back. Just gave Kudos to those who deserved it.

Wouldn't consider myself rich. I mean yes I had 3 360's 4 PS3's 4 DS's (3 got stolen at school, well I'm not there anymore.) 4 IPods 2 Computer current one is $1500 last one was $800. I'm not rich I just have different parts of my family that will give me stuff. My Granny is 76 and she is still working at Meijer. It is just how my Family is. Most of that stuff I got for Birthdays stuff anyway. And I got $2,000 for my graduation. But as I said I'm not rich it is just the people you are with you know? (I'm not saying this to rub it in anyone's face.)

It's okay, the vanilla version will be absolutely perfect. If it isn't I will send you $100 in the mail :thumbsup: Haha I'll hold you to it. God knows I shouldn't be spending any more money on games, but Skyrim is special in that I KNOW that i will be playing it for the next 5 years. Unless my xbox breaks, which seems like it could happen any day now. Then I'll really need that $100 lol. Lol I feel your pain, I went through 3 xbox's before I got a ps3 :wallbash: I went through 3 Xbox's and 4 PS3's. I was one of the unlucky YRoD people. I have had the Slim for awhile and its doing way better than the PS3 slim. Still mad that Only some Slims work with B/C with the PS2 Data but most don't. It gets me angry. PS2's JRPG's were the best.

They said the Strategy Guide will be bigger than FO3 and NV. There are some stuff they couldn't even get it the strategy book because of the Radiant Story makes Quests Non-linear. It doesn't do it for the Main Quest and some others. So with everything of the Radiant Story left out and it is still bigger than the FO3 and NV book that is HUGE.

Honestly, I think you're fine. That's a good card and there's no way that GPU support would be top-heavy towards nVidia or ATI. A 3 GHz dual-core is decent too, I myself have a Q6600 quad-core @ 2.40 GHz each and it runs most games fine with my 2 GBs of DDR2 RAM (yeah, I know I should double that haha) and my nVidia 8800GTX 640 MB video card. But oddly enough, while I can run most semi-high-end games pretty well, I can't seem to run Minecraft very well. Java very quickly racks up the RAM usage and crashes, so I can only play 20 minutes at a time about before I have to close and restart. Yet I can run Mass Effect 2 or Fallout: New Vegas, for example, at totally maxed settings. So...here's to hoping my PC is sufficient to play Skyrim at at least decent settings. How bout Mass Effect 1? I have a Quad core 3.07 GHZ 2GB Video Ram and 12GB of RAM. The video card adds 4 more cores so I have a total of 8. Still I can run Minecraft fine (It gets laggy only when I use that fly cheat and put too high of a number and I go miles away from where I was.) Minecraft wouldn't be demanding if it wasn't as big as it is. That is its downfall. Still Mass Effect 1 lags a lot when I get to Seriph (Think that is the boss's name.) It lags greatly. Gamestop told me it was the Unreal 3 Engine causing everything to load at once even from places I'm not at. My 360 does it too, but I guess I just notice Lag too easily but that is everywhere it lags. My friend doesn't notice Demon's Souls or DA2 Lag on the PS3 but I notice it. It's very odd.

No one knows yet about any of that Probably Nvidia but that doesn't mean the AMD can't handle it. I don't think it has much limits. Sure there are Video cards it doesn't support but of the ones I checked Bethesda games handled more than 95%.

Darn. :( The loading may be a drawback, but its still going to be an amazing game It'll probably be faster on any sort of half ok PC me thinks. You guys got to remember Bethsoft themselves said that it was late alpha and late alpha has no real optimization at all. They are saving optimizing it a month or so before it comes out. Takes anywhere from 6 - 2 1/2 weeks before release to press it. For most games it's about 3 weeks for going gold. I have seen several game take up to about 6 weeks before release. So a month before release gives probably a week at the most before the absolute cut off. I'm going by what Bethsoft said as they said they are still adding things in and will be until a month before release. Pete Hines as well as many others said it.

From what it looks like is that the armor rating is over 100. Probably like Morrowind's System I'm guessing. I mean its Iron armor that is not very protective. So Daedric will definitely be way more. Probably over 60 or so just for the Armor

FO3 uses more than one core. read the entire original quote it's much more coherent then and I stand by the assessment Maybe you should look at the patch updates it shows that they support more than one core. After all Quad and up are virtual cores if I remember right.

DA 2 you needed DX11 to run above medium textures. Plus XP doesn't support DX11 as it is officially outdated by Microsoft. Vista can be upgraded to handle it though. I have a GTX 460 so I'm good. Somewhy DA2 flickers textures when I use DX11 wish I could sell that game back I pre-ordered it and beat it and was disappointed. As for requirements. To run better textures on the games I have it is required. DA2 had this as I explained and so did many others. That 460 is easily the best card for the money "power vs price" so long as you have the PSU to handle it .. I had to go with the 550 ti cause I didn't have the money to buy a good enough PSU at the time .. its a good card though .. pulls its own. I have 850 Watts If I remember right. My computer I got a few years ago for $1 ,500. So yeah for me if you can afford it get it because later you might get something that isn'y supportable. (Talking about company built custom computers.) I have a Cyberpower PC.

@ EviloMEN was getting too big I'm sure most would agree. As Far as the targeting thing if I remember right it would 'magnetize' toward enemies and away from allies. They said that with large scale battle so I'm not sure it is with small scale like one Soldier, a Dragon, and you. As for the programming part pretty much. There is a lot that could be programmed in that we are noticing that there is stuff wrong with it or whatever. But programming is hard a bit too. Changing one thing might change something else. That is why they aren't getting the Hardcore mode in Pete said himself. Still there are other ways to do it too. As I've said. I won't get into programming too much besides this. Part of my Cyber Security job is having to know Programming. So I will excel at it.
