The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (PS3)

Before I start on the review let me just say that this game is by far one of the best games I have ever played. Starting with the advantages of this game, it is extremely fun and it is filled with action starting from the very beginning. This is the first time I have bought any game from the Skyrim series. The graphics are good, the creators of Elder Scrolls took their time with every detail from the snow in the mountains to the dragon priests in the long winded dungeons. The sounds in the game are pretty good but nothing to rave about. There are a TON of missions for example you can join the stormcloaks who are a group of rebels fighting against the empire, or you can join the empire who are in control of the land and are fighting against the rebel stormcloaks. There are many abilities to learn from smithing to sneaking, which add to the overall experience and the uniqueness of the game. It is an extremely long game that has a ton of missions you can do freely at anytime, it is like Grand Theft Auto in the past. Even if you finish all the main missions you can still play the side missions, extending the game time and adding to the fun. The game is also free roam which means you don't have to do the missions you can wander around and explore the enviorment and fight dragons and ward off packs of wolves. I cannot stress enough how much detail has been put into this game I can keep going on and on but I'll just say it is outstanding. Some of the problems with this game (and yes there are some) are the loading times, the loading times are fairly long because of the memory space the game takes up. Also if you accidently kill a character who is a person who gives you a main quest they do not respawn and you have to restart the entire game, which can get quite annoying. With so many things to do in the game it can be quite trouble some, but there are obviouslt plenty of ways around that problem. The last problem with the game is the fact there is no online game play which I believe would be great if there was, but it does not take away from the game that much because of the many varieties of things to do in the game. Overall I believe this game is excellent and I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoys playing video games. 10 out of 10. Message me if you have any specific questions and I'll be more than happy to help you guys out.
