  • I love yelling "FUS RO DAH" :feellikeadragonborn:
  • :D

  • meh
  • That's great and all but what about dawngaurd for pc?
  • FUS RO UPDATE!
  • And of course, PS3 users get the short end of the stick again.
  • Cool. Updates are always welcome.
  • Ok, why didn't Valve update anything for TF2 for home consoles for the past 4 YEARS!?
  • Skyrim never ends!!! (And that makes me happy:)

  • My kinect thinks that when i say awsome it means pause game ? Hopefully this new update will fix it.
  • I traded this game in yesterday and I am hating myself right now. =(
  • Stopped playing months ago, when back to Fallout. :) much better.
  • No worries, I just got this game recently and have been playing it on my PS3 for about 170 hours. I've had no issues with it besides a couples of minor glitches and two or three freezes.

  • so from what i read(could be wrong so what ever) update 1.6 sets up the Dawnguard DLC so the PS3 will not be getting it at lest until this up date is out so there is that... So when will none Xbox skyrim players get the DLC?
  • Oh well. Updates are better than no updates. /sometimes
  • Finally their fixing some of the kinect things those where pissing me off I just stuck with the controller (sorry for my spelling) for a while.

  • It's lovely. Every time a new game comes out and I put aside Skyrim for awhile, each time I come back it's more stable!

  • i just want the dlc on ps3 already!

  • Still waiting until the GOTY/Ultimate Edition before getting this game...
  • The improved recognition with the Kinect is a must. To many times have I found myself yelling at my tv to get it to work but never does.
