Better late than never, as they say.  It’s been almost a week since Bethesda announced a new add-on for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim called Hearthfire.  This new add-on will be available tomorrow for 400 Microsoft Points via Xbox Live, though a PC release date hasn’t been announced yet.  If the Dawnguard add-on was basically Skyrim meets Twilight (minus the real-life Bella cheating on Edward, natch), Hearthfire is Skyrim meets the Sims; you’ll be [...]

We’ve been glued to the continuing saga of Skyrim’s Dawnguard expansion since last week, when Bethesda’s Vice President of PR and Marketing Pete Hines made an announcement that suggested PC and PS3 gamers may have to wait a long time for the DLC.  Then a few days after that, Hines was back on his Twitter feed, allaying the concerns of angry gamers who felt Bethesda was leaving them hanging by releasing Dawnguard outside of the [...]

What you see above is yet another image from Pete Hines’ Twitter account.  The Bethesda marketing veep was far from being the most popular man in the gaming community late last week, following a tweet where he admitted Skyrim DLC Dawnguard had not been announced for other platforms.  Many gamers were hoping to see Dawnguard available for the PC and PlayStation 3 following the expiration of its 30-day exclusivity for the Microsoft Xbox 360 platform.  [...]

Despite the popularity of Bethesda’s Skyrim as a multi-platform title, it doesn’t appear too likely that we’ll be seeing Dawnguard, the first-ever Skyrim DLC, for the PC anytime soon.   According to Pete Hines, Bethesda Vice President of PR and Marketing, “We have not announced Dawnguard for any other platform, nor given a timeline for any such news. If we have news, I promise I’d tell you.”  Hines tweeted this unfortunate piece of information on [...]

Twelve dollars and forty-nine cents for all Grand Theft Auto titles released for the PC?  You better believe it, as one of Steam’s latest daily deals offers gamers a chance to purchase every GTA title at the extremely low price of $12.49.  That’s roughly 75 percent off on the entire package and almost seven dollars cheaper than what one would pay for any one of the seven items in the bundle.  So if you don’t [...]

E3 revealed some additional details about newly released DLC, Dawnguard. For Xbox the date should be 26 June 2012, but no official date confirmation for PS or even PC. In Dawnguard you will be the main actor of a new story-line wrapped around Vampires, and promising 15-20 hours of additional content.  The new package should feature new skill set which is available to you while in Vampire form, for example summoning Gargoyles or transforming yourself into “cloud” [...]

It is always nice to see when developers do not forget about the players right after initial profit take. Bethesda in 1.6 patch released mounted combat for Skyrim. This feature was requested for long time ( i can totally see why) Bethesda listened, and delivered.  Both melee and ranged combat will be available.  Patch also fixes other issues (details here). This makes me want to re-roll my full Assassin character that I finished Skyrim with and [...]

So yesterday i ve managed to finish Skyrim. By Finish i mean that i ve completed all the main quests and coule of side quests. In case someone will start bitching – “Oh, but you did not finish if you have not unlocked all the achievements, and did all the side q”. Well in case you feel like completing “collect 100 flowers, pickpocket 50 people” type of achievements and “get this, bring there thingy” kind of quest. Well then [...]

So, as some of you may know some time ago I ve decided not to play ubah Mage as i always do… but to play an assassin role.  Just to explain my decision – I always play mages, in different form and varieties. So the same was applied to Skyrim obviously (when i discovered that you can dual cast i nearly chocked). Buuut… the mage does not seem fun anymore – it is all the same after 10h [...]

So yesterday I ve pulled around 10 hours in Skyrim. I am just at the beginning so there will be more details on it later on, playing on master difficulty i find the game to be quite challenging, so there are situation where you actually decide to get back to this Witch Nest later on as now you are getting morally raped. I ve came across some reviews of Skyrim that are trying to get [...]
