    The theme wasn't my cup of tea tbh but that changed though when i tried oblivion (the last game in the franchise) and honestly it ranks in my top 3 no doubt about it.

    It's really one of the coolest games around and offers so much in return for your £40. You don't often get games that are value for money especially with the amount of yearly update games such as fifa and the call of duty series. Give it a 3-5 day rent mate and i bet you will buy it with no hesitation, but not only that you will then pick up fallout 3 and oblivion and perhaps some of the older ones on PC. :icon_mrgreen:

    I'm now at 28 hours and i think i have only done about 4 main story missions. I still can't decide whether to join the imperials or the rebellion though.

    I'm 36 hours in and still havn't even done the first main dragon lol

    I'm also torn between imperials and the rebs.. I am an imperial so i might side with them, gah i don't know. Having loads of fun doing other stuff just now and clearing some misc quests. Then i still have 90% of the DB to do and likewise for the thief's. * thinking about it i might still be faffing around till late next year ha

    I spent 20 mins coming up with a plan of attack to topple 2 giants then the 2 accompanying mammoths (needed their tusks for a misc quest) so i thought i'd use some magic then finish them off with arrows.

    I got 1 shot in and literally got flung all over Skyrim.. :56: Eventually found that if you get them to chase you and then find cover under a bridge they can't get you. Took me so long to kill the 4 though.

    apparently you can play through as a different race etc and its like a new game. (taking this from gamer nerds though, may not be the same for us guys)

    Lads I highly recommend ranking up and getting daedric armour and weapons. Took me about 12 hours, the satisfaction after was insane. The daedric mace improved twice has like 50+ damage.
