Description
Skyrim is the incredible fifth game in the renowned Elder Scrolls legacy, the innovatively built fantasy role playing saga brought to you by Bethesda. The series revolves around the protagonist's mission to combat the prophecy that Alduin, the Nordic Dragon God of Destruction and the first born of Tamriel's primary deity Akatosh, will bring about the end of the world. The game is set 200 years after the events of the prequel Oblivion, in the land of Skyrim, which is in the throes of a civil war amongst the native Nord race. This war is due to the assassination of the High King, which has placed the entire Empire of Tamriel in turmoil.
You begin your journey as a prisoner sentenced to death due to a case of mistaken identity. Seconds before your beheading, a dragon, their species long believed to have been lost, arrives and burns the town to the ground. You discover that you are the last Dovahkiin, the last of the Dragonborn; a Dragon hunter. One of the few mortals chosen by the Gods to be blessed with the power to defeat the dragons, and ultimately defeat Alduin.
Limited Edition Burlap Cloth Map Included (While Stocks Last)
This new chapter in the Elder Scrolls saga brings you an even more expansive map, completely revitalised with absolutely breathtaking visuals and graphics. Skyrim is a completely open world, one for you to explore and enjoy with every step you take. As the game begins, you will be allowed to choose one of ten races to be, such as High Elf, Orc, Human, and more. Each race has their own special attributes and particular strengths, whether it be magic or melee based or something else entirely. You can decide what you would like to specialise in as you play throughout the game, gaining first hand experience as to what would most benefit you, completely tailoring your character to your exact specifications.
Within the game, you will never be short of things to do. Alongside the tenfolds of missions and quests to complete and dragons to slay, there are also many skills to learn. There are the secrets of alchemy to discover which aid in potion making, mining to do which can give you metals to smelt to make armour and weapons, as well as books to read which can give you hidden quests, and so much more. In Skyrim, every detail matters and accounts for something within the game, with so much to explore and investigate, and so many curiosities to sate.
Another way to fully integrate yourself within the world of Skryim is to join one of the many factions and guilds available to you, whether The College Of Winterhold, The Companions, or The Dark Brotherhood; each has their own history, special cause and armoury, as well as missions to assign you. In order to join any of these many guilds, you must first prove your worth to high members, who will ask you to demonstrate your abilities; for example, when attempting to enter The College Of Winterhold, you must first perform a spell for them.
Of course, the dragons play an immense part in this game, many of them found specifically placed to guard certain mystical items, such as relics. Learn their attack patterns quickly, as often they will randomly attack cities (and you) wherever you are, no matter what you're doing. With each dragon you kill, you will earn and absorb their soul, which powers Skyrim's new Shout system. This system provides magical abilities suited for any character to use. These range from the ability to slow time, change the weather, and shoot out ice or fire blasts, amongst others, even if your character has completely forgone magic and favours melee. These Shouts are yours to use once you find and learn them, giving you even more reason to trek around and explore the vastness that is Skyrim.
Only you, and you alone, can harness the power of the Dragonborn and the dragons, and defeat Alduin once and for all. (Cat Emerson)

Bravo
This has to be the best RPG game of 2011, the story is well thought out with a simple yet elegant combat system helps to propel the player on a grand adventure the likes of which have never been seen on any previous Elder Scrolls game. But to be honest I find that it's the little things that give this game another dimension, for example as you fight dragons through out your quest, the sound of battle is broken by the brilliant deep vocal track that just chants the word "dovahkiin" ,dragon born. It almost seems like this story could have been an epic poem, compared to that of beowulf. So to wrap this up all I can say is that this game is a must own for any gamer and with unlimited quests created by the game you will spend many a happy hours on Skyrim and it will be worth every second.

Love it
This game is one of the best since a long time, the graphics are incredible and the story line is very cool. You can spend lots of hours on this game. You have a lot side quests and you can do all sorts of things just for fun. You can go and discover the whole world of Skyrim and you won't regret anything.

Awesome Game
I already invested more or less 20 hours in the game and I think I'm still at the beginning of this epic adventure. The game is huge and I think I will put more than 100 hours into it. The amount of missions and sidequests in here is huge. I just love it. The graphics are top notch, the story is epic, the gameplay is excellent. Until now I don't have any complaints about the game. It's the successor to morrowind that I was hoping for. I recommend everybody to try this game. If you are like me and like RPGs you will love this game.

Great game as expected
A fresh renewed look for a classic, gathering the goods from both Oblivion and Fallout: getting together a more linear path through the quests with their astonishing quantity. Also the new dungeons will definitely feel new and different from one another thanks to both to the specific design of each one and the looks proper to each culture the dungeon belongs to. The new development system will let all kind of players enjoy themselves to the fullest without having to choose a fixed playstyle beforehand: in fact, your own actions define both your character and your playstyle. Definitely a game worth the money and the time you'll spend enjoying it!

Great game that could've been even greater.
The game itself is a great one, the fighting system is much more enjoyable than in its predecessor Oblivion. The levelling system is also improved, it lets you customize your character better than in previous Bethesda games. Even newcomers to the RPG scene can play Skyrim. The open world, easy perk system and that there is no karma system as in previous games from Bethesda like Fallout 3 makes it much more "noob friendly". The story is great, and you can find yourself just walking through the woods for hours.

Hours and hours of fun
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim did not disappoint at all. Story is very immersive, voice acting is great, combat is versatile and overall feeling is epic. You are not pigeon holed to a class, you simply play and decide along the way what you like. Also, there is a lot of room for multiple playthroughs, because unless you follow some internet guide to do everything in the game, each time you will discover something new. Truly an epic experience. A must have.

I don't know where to start with this, other an outstanding. I've never really been one for first person RPGs but this game is practically faultless and has definitely made me reconsider the genre of gaming completely. The game is executed fantastically, with a brilliant story line and a ridiculous amount of side questions, you'll be playing this game for hours on end. There is so much to do in the game that you will find yourself terrorizing the locals, looking to slay dragons, or even spelunking (Cave exploring), and the list goes on. Definitely one of the best games I've played in years, the one thing it does lack is the ability to play with mates, but even that is overlooked after how good the single player is.

Must Buy
If you are a fan of western RPGs then this is a must own game. The scale of it is absolutely huge and will keep you engrossed for many, many hours with its massive open world filled with hundreds of varied dungeons, cities, villages, caves and hidden goodies to explore.
