    Four outlets broke the review embargo for Zelda ... it appears the game is going to be super fucking awesome ... which is nice!

    I also saw that they re-released three Metal Gear games in HD. Very tempting as I never had a PS2 to play them.

    IGN.com gave Skyrim a 9.5.

    Just watched the video review and it looks pretty sweet.
    Probably going to have to wait to get this one though. Got other game-priorities right now! :D

    Bigger priorities then an Elder Scrolls game???? :mrgreen:

    With Skyrim, Dark Souls, Metal Gear HD, Zelda, and Forza, I shouldn't have to buy another game until June of 2012.

    I finished Dark Souls last week. Great game (although highly frustrating at times)

    No Skyrim until December for me :(

    I want to get it but might wait to see if it's on sale in the next few weeks before Christmas. How's the strategy guide look? You think it's a must buy?

    I personally really like to have it. I know you can find all that stuff online for free but it's nice to have it all right there in a book I think. It's like 650 pages, very well put together.
