Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

I've not played it; it's from computer reviews with state-of-the-art desktops who can't get more than 60fps and the graphics are bad on computers. Basically, it's badly optimised for computers and they've decided to cater to console kiddies.

Jesus, I sound like a grumpy fart.

Well, it's not perfect.. No where near. But still better than console. I've downloaded a few mods that have made it look better, and I think that's what most people will have to do for the game to look a bit smoother. The graphics on a whole though are pretty neat, not breathtaking but better than console.. Although you can clearly tell it wasn't optimised for PC gaming, as is literally nothing else in the game at all, which is a shame.

As for 60fps, that's pretty standard. I think the highest my monitor can go is 72Hz anyway, so I'm not too fussed.
 
I love how rabbits go into the water and hop/swim.

Fought my first Vampires last night and killed them. Later on i jumped down off a cliff straight into the path of a Grizzly, he kicked my head in
 
I'm not hugely impressed by the graphics; for a PC game they look about 5 years out of date, even with everything maxed out. The horse animation is particularly bad with a lot of clipping going on; this needs fixing asap. The general gameplay is impressive however & I'm glad they've returned to the Morrowind soundtrack.
