What's Hot on GameSpot
A friend of mine made a mod that adds castable elemental enchants to the game it would be great to see it on a show sometime! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=78374875
I re-voiced the entire male elven race players! Shouts, battle cries, etc. for younger male characters. If you think it's good enough for top mods, I'd be ecstatic if you were to show it!!! You can check it out here - http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=77619231
or see the trailer here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnjlEp4p0t4 :D
those were amazing mods! have you heard of the mod called playable instruments mod?
Haha that was mad, i love the deer tornado at the end
Yay, cars! Now if only someone could do a "Dude, Where's My Car?" mod.
i thought they were gonna make the car fly like in harry potter there for a second. haha that would have been funny. another great episode. thanks GS
nice selection but no exploding chickens :(
gotta say the build your own home mod is a brilliant idea it would work really nicely as part of the actual game giving you something to work toward although im a little dissapointed that we didnt get to see the interior but oh well off to steam i go to check it out for myself
SirNormanislost Sometimes we need to let the chickens rest in order to build up their explosive energies.
wtf Car mod by zdzichorowerzysta
god why do i watch these they get me soo mad that i just have the xbox knock off....
Throughout the whole car sequence I kept expecting Xzibit to show up.
shaunmc Is it possible that with every skyrim mod show you could also talk about their effect on your save game? I recently had a bloated save game on my main Skyrim save file and my only way out was to start a new game. No clean save or anything could help it.
I would appreciate if you could do either a disclaimer before the show, or the best would be to just tell the viewers if you saw any effect on your save game size after using this mod, or all these mods collectively.
Thanks.
bandarman That's kind of the tricky thing about mods--you never know how one is going to react with another. That's why I always tend to use a clean save file every week, and only combine the current 5 mods. I very rarely return to an old save file from previous episodes, so the snowball effect of using more and more new mods isn't really something I can speak to.
It is odd that loading an old save file didn't seem to work for you. I've never had that problem myself. Occasionally I've deleted every mod and reinstalled the game, then dropped in a cleans save file from earlier and had it work just fine. Did that not work for you?
"Get Over Here!!" So frakin funny. RLOL.
OMG that car mod was hilarious; absolutely ridiculous, but hilarious.
Why are they mutilating the game with these mods?
arborym how is this mutilating the game? these mods are completely optional but many improve aspects of the game by fixing bugs and glitches, improving how user friendly it is with Modded UI's and improving the graphics.
arborym Because you can, that's the freedom of PC gaming.
arborym
if you dont like them dont get them its as simple as that i personally go for mods that expand the game without going too silly like improved UI options or a blacksmithing upgrade that allows you to make arrows oh and ofc a nice big house is always welcome
SirNormanislost I totally agree with certain mods, I even got some myself, but they don't alter the game so much. Say I didn't agreed Nords to be black, so I got a mod to change Vignar's skin color (not racist). That car mod is beyond stupid; it ruins the fantasy/history blend atmosphere of the game. Anyway, I'm sorry if I offended anyone. Everyone has their own thinking and I don't intend to change it. Have fun with your mods.
I wonder if you need 100 alchemy to mix up the "gasoline" potion :)
You totally nailed it with the Get Over Here Bow!! Ha Ha
Great vid this week the ones that make me laugh are my favorites :D
i wonder. if the convertible is just a skin for the horse, what kind of attack does it do?
They need to put Hydraulics and use 1.6 to its full potential by allow you to attack from your mount by crushing them with your car
lol @ driving it through riverwood. funny!
i have a gaming pc but no money, if a kind soul would gift me the game on steam i wouldn't be sad anymore ;)
Haha funny
heh... It's funny how easy it is to tell whether a Skyrim player has ever used the word "Ingot" before. Anyway, that player house mod is pretty neat.
This is really making me want to get it on PC....Can I get some love on my xbox please!
jsande23pc>consoles
not even close
buccomatic They have advantages and disadvantages, PC isn't always better
Name even one instance of the console being better than PC for Skyrim, or any other TES game.
thechuck11 But that's wrong. PC is always better than its console counterpart.
jorge69696 While PC obviously is more powerful in terms of tech than its console counterpart both have two different experiences. Plus have you ever tried playing a fighting game with a keyboard? Cause it does not go well.
Shamwownow212 And that has what to do with Skyrim; not a fighting game.
Shamwownow212 Plug in a controller, problem solved. PC gives you the freedom to choose Mouse + keyboard, Xbox 360 controller, and you can even use the other consoles with the right software and a bluetooth adapter.
Shamwownow212 Next you'll be saying "I hate being stuck in front of a monitor when I can relax on the couch with my lamebox 180 controller playing on my 40 inch television".
Too which I'll reply I love laying back in my recliner, or in bed, with a wireless keyboard and mouse on a breakfast tray playing on my 60" HDTV.
jorge69696 No, you're just wrong. Consoles are cheaper than even a computer that can only run graphics at the same level as the 360 or ps3, there are also different controllers on consoles, depending on your controller preference you might like them more than pc, one could also argue that consoles have more entertainment included with them, look at all the different things you can do or watch in xbox live, and lastly consoles are more friend orientated in my opinion, its easier to find friends, make new friends, and talk to friends, and since consoles are so common now, there is a huge playerbase. Now im not sure how many people play pc in comparison to consoles, but I've played games on the pc that the multiplayer has been discontinued and where on console it is still up and running with many people still playing.
thechuck11 Of course it is cheaper. It has less features.
You can do MANY things with a $400 PC. With a console you can, well, play games and that's it.
Once you get a job, the money stops being a issue. That's why so many kids (without jobs and money) complain about PC prices.
People are buying iPads for $500, smartphones for $750, watches for more than $1000... but buying a PC for $600? OH NO! dats too expensive!!!!!!11
A PC is a work tool that can also play games, a console is a toy.
thechuck11 absolutly not true...I bought a amd a4, radeon hd 7750, 4 GB 1600 MHz RAM and already had a old power box, case, monitor and keyboard...$250...twice as good graphics and twice as fast...
Shamwownow212 you can use controllers on PC but you cannot use keyboard and mouse on console.
you have it backwards
PC>Consoles
easy choice.
thechuck11 you only say those things because you don't know any better. in almost every example you gave PC has the clear advanrage and not the console as you somehow imagined.
sorry to hear you just flat out don't get it.
evil_m3nace Im talking about a brand new computer, not custom as not everyone has spare parts sitting around or even the knowledge of how to put it together.
buccomatic I believe you can on a ps3 on certain games, and i never said consoles were better, i just said that they each have advantages and disadvantages.
buccomatic Actually i game on a 2500 dollar computer regularly so i do know, at least i know my opinion. I also own a xbox 360 and i'm enjoying them both. Sorry to hear your a stuckup pc fanboy who can't enjoy both platforms.
thechuck11 You dont need an expensive computer to have fun...If you build it yourself Its even more fun...
I never said one was better than the other a*shole. I didn't say that skyrim was better on consoles, I didn't say consoles were better than PC's, and plus in terms of gaming on computers laptops are inferior and a decent gaming laptop is expensive as sh*t. Plus not every TV supports PC outputs, and even if it does or your PC has an HDMI output, those things are only standard in $200+ TVs. Next I'll go into the matter of prices again for example my gaming PC costed me a grand total of $730 a console like a PS3, Wii, or "Lamebox 180" costs at most 300 dollars and can be used on almost any time of TV so if you have an old a*s TV like I used to have than it would work but if you have a PC you're out of luck.
evil_m3nace I originally wanted to but im not the smartest when it comes to computer parts and putting it all together, i will someday though, hope to take a class on computers soon
Shamwownow212 what? most graphics card have
1.hdmi
2. Its not expensive to buy a composite video usb adapter they cost like 5-10 dollars on ebay
