Skyrim - Review - First Impressions - PS3

1 Day after Skyrim's release day. Reviewed on PS3 and comparing it to Oblivion at initial glance

NOVEMBER 15TH UPDATE - I have now obtained a PC copy of Skyrim. Also looks amazing, very similar to the PS3 and higher textures in some areas (Depending on your PC). Everything is Plug and Play, works with Xbox / PC Controller and is an awesome gaming experience.

@littleather Your right the only thing i am jelous about PC users who have Skyrim is MODS

I mean why cant ps3 have some? you think new patches will make new things? or maby dlcs

[littleather]

@PePsiilingo Well originally Bethesda had some talk about using mods for the PS3 when the game was in pre-development a year ago. However, they probably still figuring a way to cash in on that themselves(Maybe like an Itunes store??). So not so sure if we'll hear about that in on the future. Its just easier to do on a PC since everything is a open network and you can potentially modify anything.

@littleather A fat ps3 cost about 150bucks, wich even gives nice graphihs and great gameplay

A PC that handles Skyrim in great graphis cost about 800-950bucks not rly worth

[littleather]

@PePsiilingo Actually 800-950 would be cheap :) I bought mine for a couple grand. Agreed if money is an issue, PS3 gives the best bang for your buck. However, on many games PC can offer the best gameplay experience. As in Skyrim, there are many new mods and new levels being created by the user community as we speak. Which greatly extend the lifespan of the game. Ie. original Oblivion didnt have dragons. But with Mods , this was available long before Skyrim came about :)

@BoyyDrummer Actully i bought Skyrim yesterday, About 5hours in so far runing around in Whiterun not a single DROP or lag its perfect.

I adivice all stupid PS3 owners, to delete some old games that takes alot of MB, thats the main reasom skyrim need much space.

[littleather]

@PePsiilingo Apparently the Lag happens when you get further into the game and the save game size gets to a certain size.  Plus not everyone experiences it. Haven't experienced it myself since i switched to the PC version of playing the game. But hopefully when you get to that point in the game the next patch will be out :)

@roborocks93 it's working better now mate i had to disable saves on travel and auto saves but running ok. your'e one of the lucky ones then mate its caused a few people major problems still a great game tho

[roborocks93]

@ultimatebuzz1 lol unlucky :p so far on ps3 im 50+ hours in done main quest and lots of sht and have never crashed once.

@ASAFYY the fuck it is, you don't get this kind of free roam or freedom in dragon age, dragon age doesn't have this kind of re play value, you can make 10 different characters and each one can be different to the other, i'm not hating on dragon age its a good game.

try to delete autosave its helped me alot

[TheBrownbear5000]

@Lonelnuyasha is it still messed up for ps3 or have they patched it?

[zixo500]

i like 1st person more than 3rd person

[ultimatebuzz1]

Two below i got a ps3 and i agree such a shame its ruined its crashed on me numerious times

[Leezeeboqli121]

Thumbs up if the opening sound track reminded you of buzz lightyear from toy story :D

[Lonelnuyasha]

Do...not....get...Skyrim for PS3. The game is not adapted well for this system. It freezes, it lags, it randomly reboots the console. Do yourself a favor and get the Xbox version (which suffers from a few freezing bugs but not as bad) or the PC version.

Haha the intro is genius.
