Got the game 11/11/11 as well for 360 and I do like it better than Oblivion so far, though after Oblivion and Fallout it does feel very familiar even with the new UI.
Graphics are gorgeous imo for a six year old by now (God, time flies) console.

Looks and feel are much more gritty, which I happen to like, the color pallet is not boring at all even with the grittyness.

The gameworld seems to be extremely large, just like Oblivion.
Played so far until reaching lvl6. I am liking the new skills allocation quite a bit.
Also the new crafting system is extremely nice and adds depth, smithing, alchemy and cooking. Gone is the deterioration of equipement which may or may not be a good thing,
I would have liked to see that in this game too.

Not sure if I'll get it for the pc though, maybe.

Middle Age flight sim. You fly a dragon MkI fireball version with CBB (constant bad breath). The MkII model is said to have IBB (intermittend bad breath) and less chafing when you are sitting on it.

I don't know man, the FM's seems to be waaay off. Just give those mammoths one wrong look and you'll have a giant on your *ss faster than you can say "by the Greybeard's beards!!". Dragons can be a little tough, but the giants will just END you.

It's not usable for me this is obviously an alpha release because I get all kinds of shuttering and crashes if and when I play it.

Same here.. it's completely unplayable right now for me. Turned down the settings and get the same thing. I think CloD runs better to be honest

Your all haters! you only see the glass half empty whilst I see it half full. You would complain even if the developers gave you dev. updates and patches 5 times a week! Also you have no right to criticize the game because it conflicts with my opinion, which is the correct opinion to have. I'm enjoying the game for what it is even though it won't launch, I enjoy the icon on the desktop, the lovely 5 page manual and the promises of improvements from the developers. I hate you haters!...............

Woops! I'm a werewolf now after joining the "Companions" and doing some stuff for them. Right now I'm in a village near a swamp solving a vampire mystery and just got the quest to kill the master vampire, werewolf vs vampire, this'll be a treat!

I baught it on steam and playing on PC. AWESOME fun. I am a level 12 now in 3 days of solid playing. HACK and SLASH with 2 handed and single handed weapon focus and Fireball throwing. I have a horse and baught a house. and Slain 4 Dragons and Have 7 Shouts but only 4 usable so far. Need to kill more dragons .
