Gamers Already Getting Their Hands On Skyrim

Ben from StickTwiddlers writes: "During my daily trawl of r/gaming, I came across a thread simply titled “I have no idea why it’s already released today, but i’m not complaining” with an image attached. The image attached is of a PS3 copy of Skyrim."

I think I'm getting my pre-ordered copy tomorrow so yay, but if not then it'll be 2 days of curling in a ball and waiting.

Publisher's should change the release date to, release week.

Every game with a specific release date, i can pick up as soon as it hit the stores, which mean 2 to 3 days before release.

Enate4978d ago

I agree its stupid how sometimes the game has been in the store for like a week. An you still have to wait when its like 10 feet from you in a box.

pangitkqb4977d ago

I wish I already had my hands on Skyrim. The wait is KILLING ME.

MajorJackHoff4977d ago

This doesn't really make sense.. The start of the release week would technically be the release day, right? Or..

I got one friend on Xbox live who gets absolutely every game he wants early. A store he buys from ignores all release dates. He has been playing skyrim and modern warfare 3 since Saturday.

the pic of the ps3 copy looks fake cus of the faint line under it should be a little lower down. anyhow he has benifit of the doubt if it is real i really wanna see what ps3 footage looks like.

Breostag4978d ago

Breostag4977d ago

banjadude4978d ago

MS could compress their games on disc

Skyrim is still my favorite ES game. I’m playing through it again right now since I never finished it.

jznrpg30d ago

Morrowind is by far my favorite. But I’m getting old and played Daggerfall Morrowind and Oblivion before Skyrim

ActualWhiteMan40d ago

Yeah totally. Definitely won’t be hacking it Nintendo 🤞🏻

Fallout and Skyrim show us that talented developers make great games when you leave them alone

That judicious lack of oversight permeated everything in Bethesda's RPGs, in a positive fashion.

I much prefer a left alone Obsidian and Larian Studios. Bethesda's formula has grown old for me.

anast68d ago

Larian hit another level with DOS:2 and then took it even further with BG3. They do high quality work.

jznrpg68d ago (Edited 68d ago )

Skyrim was a letdown compared to previous games and so was Fallout 4

Kosic68d ago

I agree, I found it an interesting game. But nowhere near worth the hype (unless you include mods)

dmonee68d ago

Skyrim blew my mind when it released. That game took me to the gaming, promisedland. Going back to it when it was updated for the PS5, it felt slightly rough around the edges, but great for its time

TheColbertinator68d ago

We should leave Obsidian alone. Bethesda on the other hand should be kept under constant psychiatric observation.

anast68d ago

Skyrim feels like the game was made in a hurry with a disorganized team.
