cool. that skyrim looks good, gotta ask again though, would i have needed to play previous elder scrolls games? or is this a stand-alone title, all new story like?
edit: after a little bit of googling i'm thinking i might need to have played oblivion?

Nah don't worry, each game is always set in a completely different region of the same world so a lot of the 'lore' is fresh. Its even set 300 years after the event of Oblivion. Playing Oblivion would certainly give a bit of background to the whole thing though.

Playing Oblivion would give you a good bit of background info but I doubt it would be necessary in order to full get the storyline of Skyrim. Many people said you would have had to play Morrowind before playing Oblivion to get it but I didn't need to, still massively enjoyed it.
Skyrim, FM 2012, AC Revelations, Gears of War 3. Want all now. Can't have any now. Three aren't released yet and one I can't afford. LAME.

Theres his problem - he has a GayS3...

Late, but I can confirm you don't need to have played Oblivion. You'll get into Skyrim just fine, may take a little more time if you're not familiar with how the games work but you'll get it.

cool. graphics look great on the youtube trailers, but i'm not sure about the gameplay. it didn't look that engaging, hopefully it was just that particular clip.
i may have to wait til i can get it pre-owned, too many games are out or coming out soon at a time when i'm barely earning any money ! NHL '12, Rage, MW3, Halo: Combat evolved anniversary...

Played Gears 3 on multiplayer for the first time last night. Only a couple games of TDM but I quite enjoyed it. Also I hear that they've re-released Resident Evil 4 for the 360 which is available to download. Do I want it? Fuck yes. I just don't like the thought of giving Microsoft my card details.

That is EXACTLY what I am going to do. Only ever bought them once before. They're a complete rip.
How're you dealing with Gears 3 multiplayer now?

Football Manager next week then Skyrim in November. December is a write-off in terms of my social life. And this from someone who isn't a massive gamer. Apart from a few months of FM2011, the only game I've really played over the past few years is Pro Evo 2009.

The new Batman Game is out friday too - so between my copy of FM12 dropping through the letterbox(hopefully) and that its safe to say thats friday night and Saturday taken care of. And after the match sunday if im not too pissed. Then BF3 next friday - midnight launch and have the day booked off too as its a mates bday and he is BF nuts so thats that weekend taken care of too - plus its a bank holiday weekend so that makes it a 4-dayer for me Then Skyrim 3 weeks after that. Plus GOW3 multiplayer to carry on with. Think my thumbs are gonna be sore - kinda slipped off the Xbox online radar for a few months - there will be no getting rid of me now.

How're you dealing with Gears 3 multiplayer now? not great. i have the odd decent round where i go 5 for 5 or 5 for 6, but typically i get 2 or 3 kills and die at least twice that amount. Arkham City on Fri ?? if only i had the bills
