    Been on it for a good 30 hours of game play and I still haven't done the main story line quests. Been wandering around exploring it's a fun game.

    This game is incredible for the player who is absorbed in an open world fantasy game. Great story and quests. World is enormous. Game is both fun and challenging. You can spend hours upon hours playing this game.

    If your looking to get lost in a fantastic Fantasy world, than this is the game for you. Remember playing Dungeons&Dragons as a kid with just your imagination? Well, now you can experience that beyond what your imagination could come up with in Skyrim. There is so much content in this game it is down right over whelming but I mean in the best kind of way. There is tons of things to do from the main story to hundreds of side quests. If your a completionist like myself than this will consume your waking life with how much there is in this game's massive open world. I'd recommend this game to any RPG fan.

    This game is amazing ! If you enjoyed playing fallout you will definitely enjoy playing this game. There are a few minor glitches and the battling can be a bit confusing in the sense that it make you wonder if you are even hitting what ever you are battling. The puzzles are challenging and the missions are lengthy and fun. The game is a huge ! Overall this game deserves a perfect 10!

    Used one is really cheap option for me. I could not believe the low price given that the game won GOTY!!! and critics' and users' enthusiastic and fantastic review! After I brought the game home, I found out the reason of the low price, esp. for PS3. The PS3 version of the game was known to be horrible in terms of several glitches like frequent freeze and too long loading time. But I also found out that these glitches are resolved somehow through a couple of patches, though it's not perfect yet. Graphics are not impressive as I expected. If you are not a heavy game player, you won't have severe problems in these things. (In my research, as the game play time "enormously" increases, the problems tend to be severe. Moderate play time should be okay.) Except these technical issues, game play and story and the perspective about the world and the endless quest and so many choices that I can make in the game are amazing!

    The elder scrolls series has been around since 1994. And since I played arena I have had a soft spot for Bethesda's franchise. You do not need to play each game in a specific order, there is no story line throughout all of the games that you would miss out on. Each game is an entirely new feeling, and that is what makes these games special. If you like fantasy and rpgs, you should definitely give this game a try. It is the most approachable of the series. I also need to take this opportunity to 'plug' an old Elder Scroll's game: If you liked this game and you have never played ES: Morrowind, it is simply the best notch for the entire series. It has some age, but it truly feels like an undiscovered world. Many of the locations and creatures feel like they came from another dimension. Buy this game and enjoy shouting at Dragons, Dragonborn.

    It was the cheapest I'd seen it and if heard good things. It was a little confusing and the first time I died nothing ever happened and I had to restart my game from where I made my character. Apart from that, I've found it quite fun.

    Okay first off this game is awesome, I've poured so much time into this game it isn't funny and maybe unhealthy but if you have all the DLCs of Skyrim then you might want to let this one go. My kids play this game non-stop also.

    Gets you cash back what's not like. I've been using for 3 years and have revived cash back to help purchase new toys. Gives a little incentive to get what I want quicker.

    This was a great game and it didn't hurt getting it so cheap. You can play this game for hours and hours as many different characters. Some of the challenges are extremely hard which makes it even more fun

    This is an excellent game! Carries on in the tradition of Oblivion with improved graphics and gameplay. Wish there not so many cut scenes (like when going in/out of doors), but overall a great value for the money - you'll be gaming a long time with this one.
