My blog is so ready for Skyrim! - 111111 views on my blog!

I checked my blog earlier and I noticed that it had exactly 111,111 views!

Skyrim is released on 11-11-11!

It's a sign of the times... Video games are being released all around us and it is inevitable... we need to play them! Upon release, I will make sure to play Skyrim as soon as I can.

Skyrim, Around 30 Minutes of Gameplay - Dragons, Dungeons, World, UI, World Map!

There is a series of three videos that Bethesda has released showing off the awesome gameplay in Skyrim! The world is shown off in the first map; the world map is simply the entire world being rendered at once! So, instead of a paper-ish map, you'll seen the entire world rendered in real time! Then you just select your location and go there.

As for the dungeon, it's a huge dungeon and they couldn't fit everything into the gameplay video, or it'd be too long; and this is only one of over 150 dungeons in the game! As for dragons, they're shown off in the final video; you also get to see dragon shouts, magic, giants, mammoths, etc.


Not even a troll could hate this game...

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Some mods for Oblivion to hold you over

Here are some mods for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion that will hold you over until the amazing fifth installment in the series is finally released for us to play!

Skyrim - Gameplay Footage (LOTS of NEW Content!) - E3 2011

This video shows a ton of awesome stuff! From E3 2011, I believe.

Brink, Screenshots, Info, Artwork, Wallpapers, Trailer, Gameplay footage

Brink is an awesome looking game that was released May 9th. It's being published by Bethesda, which is currently one of my two favorite publishers (Activision being my other favorite). The trailer is a simple cinematic trailer, so it's not gameplay - however, there is a gameplay video below the trailer!

Even though it was just released May 9th; there are already some reviews of it on the internet like: VideoGamer.com (80/100) and Strategy Informer (60/100). VideoGamer knows there are flaws but still likes the video game a lot; Strategy Informer says the game is a confused piece of software that doesn't exactly know what it is.

So far, the game isn't being reviewed the best, but I'm sure that the game is still great and will get an even better sequel that will improve upon all of the small faults in this first installment. Don't you just love sequels? I do! Seriously... I do. Not on movies, though; I only like Video game sequels.

Anyway, here are the trailers - the cinematic trailer and the gameplay footage that seems to come from PAX, according to the uploader on YouTube, Cartagena44. The cinematic trailer was released sometime in 2010, while the gameplay footage was still probably released a bit later than it. Probably around early 2011.

There are some screenshots below; some of the screenshots of simply screenshots of the cinematic trailer, while others are actual screenshots of gameplay - at least, that's my first thought on them by looking at them and looking at the trailers. There are also a few that are just artwork or Concept Art, as people call it; it is what they draw before actually making anything, so people know what in the heck the world is supposed to look like. There are a few pics of the weapons and costume (outfit?) packs as well. A few of them are wallpapers, too.

Mass Effect 3, Delayed until 2012

Mass Effect 3 was supposed to be released around the same time as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and the same time as Minecraft. These both are being released on November 11, 2011 - now, Mass Effect 3 is being released around the same time as Mass Effect 2 was released in 2010.

This will give me more time to play games like Skyrim and Uncharted 3, then be able to replay Mass Effect 1-2 and then play Mass Effect 3 to finally end the story! I can't wait until Mass Effect 3 is released, but I want the game to be perfect, so I am glad they delayed it.

Usually, the terrible Electronic Arts (EA games) won't delay anything, because they only want to get their money immediately - however, they sometimes have to make exceptions when they know it'll ruin the games they're publishing. Mass Effect 3 is one of EA's biggest games, made by Bioware and being published by EA.

Skyrim, 15 Minute Interview

Here is an awesome interview I found with one of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim's devs, Todd Howard. It has a lot of information, and it has German subtitles at the bottom, if you don't speak English and do happen to speak German...

Anyway, he speaks about the over 100 dungeons, half of which take 1 to 2 hours, the other half are about 15 minutes. He speaks about the more realistic NPCs and how they actually go places and truly do things, instead of just going places and sleeping or standing there. The world is as big as TESIV: Oblivion's Cyrodill, but the mountains make it so you have to travel further - because you can't just walk straight over a mountain, you'll have to walk twisting and turning paths.

Here it is:

Rage, Gameplay and Graphics Preview

Rage is a new game made by one of the most awesome companies in the world: Id. They've been innovating games for years now. They really made FPS what it is; without them, FPS games would have evolved very differently. They created Doom and its sequels, among other popular and amazing games.

Now, Rage is coming soon and its graphics will push everything to the edge. The AI in the new game seems to be truly spectacular and the game mechanics look very fun. I may be one of the few that hated Borderlands, but this game looks super amazing and far superior to that hunk of trash. While Borderlands wasn't great - at all - to me, I still think it has potential and hope to see more of it in the future.

As for Rage, Id is now owned by Bethesda; they created games like The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas - they are now working on TESV: Skyrim, as well. Id being under this company will really help them push everything forward - they are under a company of great designers that don't make bad games just to make money (Good thing EA didn't buy them... EA would have ruined Rage and everything Id has ever created).

Anyway, here is a video of Rage's gameplay and graphics; this was on IGN's YouTube channel.

Skyrim, I'm definitely looking forward to it!

I'm looking forward to that awesome game, Skyrim. It's the fifth installment in the long running series, The Elder Scrolls. TESV: Skyrim is going to be a very awesome game; the game's world is humongous, and there is a huge differentiation in the environments of the world.

The world's size is about the same as Oblivion, according to Bethesda, but the world seems larger, because you can't just walk in one direction forever and get places - there are mountains you have to cross, going on narrow pathways to get places.

Here are a bunch of screenshots that I've found on the internet that are awesome!

Dual wielding with a mace and a magic fireball!

A screenshot of some beautiful mountains, littered with awesome looking trees, just above a lake. The graphics in this game are rendered in completely new ways; on PC, you'll be able to get the ultimate graphical experience, with the higher resolution textures - however, if your computer is old, you can still scale down the graphics settings to run the game.

This is a screenshot of this Dragonborn absorbing a dragon's essence; this is something that isn't explained very much, yet.

That's gotta hurt! The new kills look awesome in this game!

The Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim - New Screenshots

The Elder Scrolls V : Skyrim is coming on November 11, 2011 - or 11/11/11. Minecraft is also coming out on this same date; however, Minecraft is already able to be played during its whole beta stage, so there isn't much wonder surrounding that date. It's not going to change much, because things will still be added to Minecraft regularly, like during the beta.

Now, Skyrim has a few new screenshots that were released around the net, and I've compiled a few of them here:
