Anyone gonna play this? I loved Oblivion so I hope this game is as good or better! :)

With the release of TOR in December, this is the next game I'll be playing. Should tide me over nicely until TOR haha.

Also, it determines when I will be getting my new computer! :)

Definitely. I'm probably going to get it on the PS3 though. Plenty of great games coming out between now and Christmas.

FIFA 12, Battlefield 3, Assassins Creed 4 and this one.

Valerie will feel abandoned for the coming months.

I bet the graphics will be better on PC, and I think the art and world really make the elder scrolls games special. So I think its worth it to get it on PC instead of a console. Also, my 360 broke a long time ago so I don't really have another option. haha

Considering getting BF3 also, but don't know if I have the time for that many games.

well master Ekul im gonna say ive been following bf3 also and they are making it the new crysis so to speak... it'll be a few years probablly untill someone can play it on full graphics ect..

Im not expecting alot from bf3 from my rig

Xeon quad core 2.77
EVGA GTX 550 TI x 2 SLI
6 GB DDR2 PC5300-667mhz ECC-Fully buffered
Rocketfish Sound card 5.1

Just went last night and picked up a New G110 Gaming keyboard but i would recommend a razor(if you can afford $150 for a keyboard)
or a Eclipse 3.

the GTX series is doing amazing against the ATI competition. I wouldnt recommend sli 550 i saved maybe 50 bucks then buying a 570 but now i cannot
upgrade any further and my power is still just under and 570 benchmarks.

Let us know what you get master.

Depending on Bulldozer benchmarks, I'm either getting one of them or a good intel (2500k or 2600k depending on the price). I'm probably not going to buy it until early november because I don't need it until then and hopefully prices will be lower.

I'm just using my same old keyboard that I've had for like 8-9 years. haha It is pretty bad but it works so whatever. Same thing for my old microsoft mouse.

hey im the same way, when i got this tower i traded personal training for it. So ive had to sink some money into it but i have like a old p2 connector keyboard that barely worked so i got this keyboard for half off at microcenter.com.

i still got the same ole mouse ive used since i first played jk2 and joined the order.. the light has already gone out in the scroll wheel like 3-4 years ago lol but its a comfortable mouse.

let me know if you need some help doing research and price checking ill help you look some stuff up. btw 2600k intel I7 is very very good processor sandy bridge last i heard was the top of the line but its hard to tell rumors from facts.

I'm waiting for bulldozer to be released. Then there will be FPS benchmarks from games. That's probably the most accurate way of figuring out what is best for my needs.

I'll definitely be hitting you up for any info about low prices/sales/etc! Thanks for the offer! :)

Torn on getting it for the 360 or PC. I gather the modding community on Oblivion's always been awesome for PC, but I'm pretty sure my 360 will run it better... Urghhhhhhh.

Comes out on the gf's 23rd, so I doubt I'll be able to grab it on release day!

That's another reason to get it for PC. They make some insane mods for the elder scrolls games. Although if your computer wouldn't run it smoothly its probably better to get it on 360.

I'd rather have extra game content than a fancy look.

I feel the same way, but if I would be getting lag because of slowness on my computer, I would pick 360. If I would just need to run it at a lower setting where it would still be smooth, I would pick PC for the extra content.
