| | Moosa’s Musings: This is what’s wrong with Skyrim | 
Tauriq Moosa - January 30th, 2012 | I feel like a non-French speaker stumbling into a conference of snobs. The reason for this rests primarily with a game called The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Everyone, from Lazygamer’s own Garth Holden to my non-existent children, had been waiting for and then, upon procuring, has loved this game. Big words and loaded descriptions, pumped full of the hot air of gamers’ expectations, took up unnecessary focus in the gaming landscape, like a fat man sitting in front of ... [»] |

| Skyrim Patch detailed, Creation kit confirmed | 
Geoffrey Tim - January 20th, 2012 | Yes, a new patch for The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim is coming…and this time THIS TIME, Bethesda promises that the lag that often makes the PS3 version unplayable will be fixed for good. Equally good news for those who’ve end up stuck through no fault of their own is that pretty much all of the game-breaking quest ... [»] |

| The next Skyrim patch won’t fix PS3 lag issues | 
Geoffrey Tim - December 7th, 2011 | Skyrim is an amazing experience, and one of the best games this year - unless you’re playing it on a PS3, where it’s essentially broken. While some are unaffected by a bounteous bevy of bugs most players are experiencing some pretty crippling lag that gets worse the longer you play. The general consensus amongst PS3 Skyrim players is to wait for the ... [»] |

| Skyrim on the PS3 might be broken forever | 
Darryn Bonthuys - December 6th, 2011 | If you’re playing Skyrim on the PC or Xbox 360, you’re having a great time, there’s no doubt about that. Sure the PC may have access to some mind-bending visuals and mods, but at least us console gamers still get a smooth, fantastic experience.
Wait, what’s that PS3 owners? Your game freezes and slows down more than Stephen Hawking when his wheelchair hasn’t been ... [»] |

| Do NOT install the Skyrim patch! | 
Geoffrey Tim - December 1st, 2011 | The Skyrim patch, released online through Xbox Live yesterday and on PSN a few days ago was meant to fix things. It’s done that - but also brought with it a host of brand new problems.
In short, you probably don’t want to install the update.The biggest problem with the patch is that it severely nerfs resistances. Picked a Nord and have gotten used ... [»] |

| Skyrim Patch details! | 
Geoffrey Tim - November 29th, 2011 | There’s no denying that as good a game as it is, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is as full of bugs and glitches as it is side quests. Due to the game’s cheer scope and living open world, it’s understandable. Still, many people - especially those playing on PS3 - have been having some ... [»] |

| Meet Dovahkiin Tom | 
Geoffrey Tim - November 17th, 2011 | Earlier this year, Bethesda - half jokingly, I think - threw down a challenge. If a baby was born on 11/11/11, and its parents named it Dovahkiin in honour of Skyrim’s release, those parents would get Bethesda games for free, for the rest of their lives. Allow me - and I’m shaking my head in disapproval as I write this - ... [»] |

| Single player’s dead eh? Cos Skyrim’s sold like hotcakes | 
Geoffrey Tim - November 17th, 2011 | For a while now, people in suits who carry clipboards - and seem to have no real passion for games - have insisted that single player gaming is dead, and that all games need some sort of online multiplayer to perform well at retail. It’s because of these people that we got needlessly shoehorned in to sublime single-player experiences, like in Dead Space 2, The Darkness and even Assassin’s Creed and ... [»] |

| Skyrim all-platform patch from Bethesda is inbound | 
Darryn Bonthuys - November 16th, 2011 | I just can’t stop playing Skyrim, and judging by the amount of copies then new fantasy world title has regenerated, neither can the rest of the gaming community. It’s a charming adventure on a massive scale, and it has to be one of the highlights of the gaming calendar.
Still, for all it’s positive values, Skyrim is one hell of a glitch-slapped game. There are ... [»] |

| So how’s Skyrim done at retail? | 
Geoffrey Tim - November 15th, 2011 | Skyrim, the game that’s currently got its grasp on the minds of gamers everywhere has been out for just 4 days. Just about every gamer I speak to is obsessed with Skyrim - regaling me with their own in-game tales and stories. So it’s certainly popular - but how well’s it been selling?In short: Incredibly.
In just two days on sale, The Elder Scrolls ... [»] |

| The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim review round up | 
Geoffrey Tim - November 10th, 2011 | In this crazy period of AAA release after AAA release, and games making lustful eyes at our wallets, there’s just one game - amongst dozens of admittedly fantastic titles - that stands out above the rest for me, and that’s The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. It’s out tomorrow, after what seems an eternity’s wait. We’re still waiting on a review copy, ... [»] |

| Apparently There’s Some Animation In This Skyrim Trailer | 
Nick de Bruyne - November 10th, 2011 | The folks from Bethesda have just released a new trailer for Elder Scrolls: Skyrim that is apparently supposed to show off some of their neat animations… but it’s a little bit difficult to appreciate the finer details when you are spending the whole time ogling the absolutely amazing looking ass-kicking that the hero is dishing out.
So when you watch it, try and ... [»] |
