Has kotaku on PC completely gone to hell for anyone else? It almost never loads on chrome or safari, and even on constant refreshing, Mehrune's Razor has a better chance to one hit kill than kotaku finally loading. When it does load, I can't seecomments, which, no offence to the editors, is the only reason I come here. I'm on a tablet right now.

Also, Diablo 3 on console confirmed. Thoughts?

By being the only person who "works at Oceanmarketing".
At first glance, I thought that was old Batman, from that Miller story. The Dark Kinght Returns?
Let's talk about Skyrim. More specifically, progress in the game.

MILD SPOILERS MILD SPOILERS

After 47 hours, I've done-

A few main quests (I finished the quest with the party)
A couple of Civil War quests (Am with Imperials, defended the you-know-what city)
4 Daedric quests
7 side quests
A ton of misc objectives
A good part of the mage quests
A good part of Companion quests
A couple of Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild quests

This seems pretty woeful compared to what I have left to do. However, I see people who've finished everything, and have created multiple characters. That seems pretty insane to me, completing everything in the game is quite a feat.

Anyway, how goes your adventure in Skyrim?
Ah, so her name is Adrianne? I haven't looked at the name tag since the first time I spoke to her. I just refer to her as that sucker who buys all my junk.
It's a bit of a pet peeve of mine whenever I see characters in a movie playing video games and doing it wrong. The controller is almost always off, and I highly doubt there's a game out there which requires you to mash buttons randomly without touching the shoulder buttons or the analog sticks.
To be fair, Master Criminal is a pretty contrived achievement. I'm willing to bet that the majority of those who play the game don't act unlawful enough to build up a bounty of 1000 gold in EACH of the 9 holds.

Also, well, I've played hours and hours of the game but since I explore dungeons and do lots of misc objectives, I haven't really been racking in trophies. This is just one game where the achievement list isn't that much of an indication of the interest of the general gaming population in the game.
Using google translate, I read that the TRIAL included 3 tracks. I don't notice anything about the retail version.

Of course, that's just google translate I used, so the accuracy is debatable.
The aiming was the very first thing I complained about to a friend, but by the time I was a third into it, I got used to it. On my crushing playthrough, I hardly noticed anything.
The sand mechanic sounds interesting, but is that one element good enough to carry the game? The rest of the game sounds like your run of the mill third person shooter.
Poor kid, he's going to have a rough time in school. Those of us who've finished school know that the "politics" in there are quite meaningless, but hazing can have an undermining influence at that age.
Never played Sly on the PS2, but loved loved loved the HD Collection. Definitely picking this up.
Love this new feature, hope you folks continue doing this for other games.
I was looking at my SR2 save file the other, and doing EVERYTHING in the game (story, side missions, activities, etc) took 40 hrs.
I'm thinking about going for a offensive battlemage - sword/magic wielding, right in the middle of the fight. What race should I go with? The high elf has the advantage in magicka pool and regenration, Imperials have additional starting points in heavy armor, one handed and destruction, all of which will be important skills for me, and the Khajit just looks badass.

Advice/tips from players would be appreciated- Skyrim's going to be my first foray into the world of Elder Scrolls when I get it next week.
Yeah, as well as all the tweaks like infinite ammo and fast mode.
I think the MGS collection has three plats too.
Three sandbox games in a period of a couple of days. My God.
I'm a big AC fan and thus have it pre-ordered, but I agree. Skyrim coming out a couple of days before it could hurt it's sales quite a bit.
Just looked up his channel, noticed that he's putting up MW3 vids. Hah, "nothing I could do!", "lag!" seem to be his favorite lines.
