Skyrim Sizzle Reel

[Feb 09, 2012, 11:44 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

A skyRimGameJam video features Bethesda's Todd Howard showing off a "sizzle reel" created for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. The pop-up video-style clip shows a number of features proposed for the game before they took arrows to the knees, and though they did not make it into the release version of the role-playing sequel, Todd enigmatically notes that it is possible some of what it shown will make its way into the game through DLC releases or other updates.

Considering how many people have disproved the "you have to have a $1000+ rig to game on" line, I'm surprised you're still parroting it.

If someone is dumb enough to believe that despite evidence proving otherwise then I think they are intended market for consoles in the first place. Playing on the big screen with a controller requires either a console or a $1000 gaming rig with nothing in between, the more you know.

I'm not going to half-ass it.

Regardless, it always amuses me how few people around here can tolerate someone else enjoying games in a way they do not. I have zero interest in owning two PCs. I have zero interest in maintaining two PCs. I already have two laptops, a netbook, two smartphones, a tablet and a desktop. I have little interest in adding yet another device there. I have little interest in adding more cords. Little interest in needing to buy and store a wireless mouse and keyboard.

Overall the benefits I'd receive are not worth the hassle. For most games there's little to no difference. For Skyrim I'd be able to actually add texture to the pitiful looking snow and be able to fix the awful UI. So what? I played Oblivion through two and a half time on the console and feel I suffered not at all for it.
