Yeah, these are old. You could've posted these in the 'Oblivion pics you might not have seen' thread which I started, but no harm done.

Thax...

Im really worried about you.

You know, everyone knows I hate jaggies. But this picture has been out for a good 7 months!

Not to mention its from the PC version.

Even if they were 360 pics, we are talking pre-E3. Yes thats right, Im talking more like March/April. The edram was not in place, and it was up to the devs if they wanted to use 2x MSAA.

Infact that pic you used is one of the first 4 pics EVER shown. Maybe even as far back as January.

Please become more intune with 360 so I dont have to preach. Im going to start charging small fees  tongue.gif

FOUND IT!!

10 months old!!! BOOM!

Infact most of the above pics are from last year and no later than January of this year.

Like I said b4, these pics were the first shown of the game.

Time to move on don't ya think?

I think he meant both.

I didnt see the text he wrote under the pic..lol

sorry for misunderstanding you Thax.

all I saw in Bold was the Jaggies comment.

I became irate and almost had a seizure  tongue.gif

Thats the pc version from 10 months ago, the 360 version is the better version, youve seen it quoted by Bethesda themselves.

It will look like that indeed.

now wheres my horse!! I wanna ride around thru the woods!

I just don't want to get dissapointed if Bethseda pulls a bungie on us. I do not normally enjoy rpgs but fable opened me up. I need a larger scale better looking fable!!

The game is nothing like Fable. It's huge, immense. There's a ton of content. You'll be reading LOTS of stuff. All of the quest lines are much more in depth, challenging and interesting. And there's a heck of a lot more to the game than just the guilds and the main quest. Lots and lots of other things to do that haven't been mentioned. Stats play a huge, huge role. Class actually has meaning this time. The game is better balanced. You have more rewards for advancement besides just getting better at things. The dungeons are better designed, the NPCs are more interesting, the dialogue is better written.

If you think this is a simple, dumbed down hack & slash, you couldn't be more wrong.

It's just not enough to look good and have a cool job title (just ask a sports
anchor) - you need to have skills to get ahead in the world. And in Morrowind
having the right skills can make the difference between inheriting your destiny
forty hours into the game, and restarting six times in a row because you keep
finding out your character is pathetically unprepared for the multitudinous
challenges this game has to offer. So believe me, you want to make as many good
choices as you can before you start, because you don't want to have to train up
a non-class skill to a decent level because you realized twenty hours into
playing that you can't survive without it. So we'll run through the skills, and
I'll offer my commentary on each. First, a disclaimer: these are only my
opinions. As I mentioned earlier in this FAQ I tend to take a "generalist"
approach, and people who play with a very narrowly focused type of play (or
character) are going to shake their heads in disgust at my suggestions. So take
whatever I (or anyone else) says with a grain of salt.

I hope they still have the option, or should I say choice that lets you pick different races.
I love the redgaurd race.

Well, what I posted (skills and stuff) wasn't Ovlivion, it was Morrowind. I just wanted to give some people an idea of how skills are used in the Elder Scrolls series in general.
