The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Xbox 360

Model: 11763
SKU: 2095189
UPC: 093155117631
SynopsisThe long-awaited and much-anticipated next installment of the award-winning The Elder Scrolls franchise is here. Now, the expansive, open world that forever revolutionized the face of the fantasy epic leads you deeper into the combat, the magic and the myth than you've ever been before. This time, you don't just play as a character, you truly become whomever it is you wish to be — and have the freedom to do anything you can possibly imagine. This follow-up to the 2006 Game of the Year, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, offers stunning graphics and a gripping storyline that immerses you in the game from the moment you turn it on. Are you ready to unroll the Scroll and let the journey begin? Imagine rolling clouds, rugged mountains, bustling cities, lush fields and crumbling dungeons. Imagine ancient dragons beholding secrets so powerful they could transform your future. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim immerses you in the engrossing world of the franchise you already know and love with more realism, more choice and more intensity than ever before. Featuring a new game engine that brings every tiny environmental aspect to life in blistering detail and AI that brings you close to your allies — and your enemies — Skyrim blurs the line between your world and that of the game. An all-new character engine opens wider an already vast virtual world, putting every decision, every action and every consequence entirely in your hands as you arm yourself with hundreds of new weapons, abilities and spells. Developed by Bethesda Game Studios, the creators of the 2008 Game of the Year, Fallout 3, this immaculate fifth chapter challenges your skills, immerses your mind and will forever change the way you view gaming. It's time to return. It's time for Skyrim.

What's great about it: I thas some many different adventures to try. Endless possibilities.
What's not so great: Too easy to lose a day playing this video game.
Morrowind: The Elder Scrolls was a great game, but this one is even better! I have been playing it for weeks now, and I must admit I am addicted to it.

Simply the best game ever made!! I'm normaly a MW3 or Battlefield person but this game grabbed ahold of me from the beginning and has not let go. Hours of in depth story line and fantastic graphics. I can't get enough!!! This game has a spectacular quest plot along with all the side quests that you can choose to partake in or not. That's the best part I think is all of the decisions that effect the out come. It has something for everyone!!!

What's great about it: This game is a great action packed and filled of legends that you reveal!
What's not so great: There is no (DEEP) relationship with your wife aka no kids
This game is a great game for people who have patience and love to kill in a first person camera or 3rd person, it is filled full of legends, marriages, and a whole world to do what you want. The Dragon born has a power that noone else has; the ability to absorb a dragon's soul and learn Thu'ums also known as shouts that can kill or push back an enemy. You can have a wife or husband, the whole plot of the story is based in the early years of the vikings and shows remarkable graphics with the right T.V. AKA use an hdmi cord. The best thing about this game is the action and choices you make, spend money on horses,jewelry,food, potions, weapons, spell books, and so much more! This game sadly is not an online game but for no online play it is amusing to most people. There are different places to go and so many factions to join, Dark brotherhood, The Legion, The Storm-cloaks, and more. You also can become legendary creatures such as Werewolf(AWESOME) or a Vampire(SUCKS>LITERALLY)!!! I recommend if you love hours of addictive play you should buy this great game!!!

What's great about it: FUN, EASY TO MASTER, WORTH FULL PRICE
What's not so great: GLITCHES IN THE GAME, WILL NOT HAVE A DLC
STORY LINE- VERY FUN AND ADVENTUROUS, CHALLENGING AND MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE YOU CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT QUEST. THERE ARE ALOT OF THINGS YOU CAN DO IN SKYRIM INSTEAD OF JUST QUESTS.
GRAPHICS- REALLY GOOD, BUT THE GAME DOES HAVE GLITCHES, ONE OR TWO OF THEM MAY NOT LET YOU EARN YOUR ACHIEVEMENT THROUGH XBOX.
THATS THE ONLY WAY I CAN EXPLAIN IT, ITS WORTH BUYING AND TRYING IT OUT FOR YOURSELF I CAN GUARENTEE ANYBODY THAT IT DOES NOT DISSAPOINT.

What's great about it: fun, graphics, storyline
What's not so great: nothing
this game is amazing, its good for the first time player because it has different difficulty setings ranging from beginer to master.
Overall it never gets boaring, the story line is long, but you can stop there and do what ever you want (like a free-roam game). then pickup where you left off.
there is so much to do, like mastering different skills, such as, pick pocketing and sneeking (stelth) and various types of magic. hunting is also a thing to do and you can sell what you get from the animals. Or if you like exploring you can, because the map is HUGE, you can find doungens that are filled with all sorts of creapy things.
THIS GAME IS A MUST HAVE

I was already a huge fan of the previous game when I bought this one, so my expectations were pretty high. It didn't disappoint. The entire game is one big masterpiece that never fails to amuse. I've got 40 hours in this game right now, and plan on doubling that for sure.

Aside from the glitches, you cannot deny how awesome this game is. The amount of options provided are nearly limitless. There's almost too much to do. Critics have said that Bethesda goofed up by releasing the game with such obvious glitches but I don't care. The gameplay, storyline, and endless things to do make up for it in my opinion. Besides, patches are released so what's the point in crying about something that will eventailly be fixed. If you're a fan of Bethesda or the Elder Scrolls, this game is a must have. If you are foreign to this gaming, then I would suggest renting first.

What's great about it: everything in it is amazing, especially the ability to kill basically everyone including merchants.
What's not so great: nothing
This game is absolutely amazing, I have had it for about a month and have played it at least 150 hours and am still finding new things to do. I haven't completed the primary story line due to the fact that there is so much in the world that this game envelopes you in to keep you away from the main story. You can join an assassins guild, work for god-princes of the realm of oblivion, or just murder everyone you meet (I just murder everyone.)

What's great about it: Everything...
What's not so great: .5% had glitches at first, though patches have corrected it. easy fix: just download updates after install.
Beautiful and mammoth, Skyrim is overfilled with missions and tasks, conversations and relationships. Need to forget life for a while, this is the world you've been waiting for.
Immediate thrust into the storyline from the second you start.
Choose your own path, do whatever you like- or just wander.
Menu design is intuitive and easily navigated, the inclusion of a "favorites" menu accessible via one button makes battles a joy.
Not safe for hoarders... you will collect everything!
Install it. PC, PS3, or Xbox 360... you will play for hours- keep your system cool. (a constantly spinning disc does not)
