I really did not expect it to look this good on the 360. To be honest I thought the E3 footage was PC at first so I am extremly happy with it and can not wait!!!! :celebration:
:tes:

This one is pretty badass: http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/9977/vlcsnap2011091222h38m17.png

And yes, considering the Xbox 360 is 2005 hardware (6 years old!), this is pretty much amazing.

I would very much like a cap of the shadow of the bird just before he casts the spell on the Orc bandit...its a very detailed shadow, I liked it. :spotted owl:

I'm not sure what part you're referring to, could you post the exact frame time?

Oh, things just look so much better than Oblivion, don't they.

Very good looking Troll there, as far as trolls go. LOL

I would love too see Skyrim on maxed out PC settings for comparison.

Thanks OP! I'm using one of your screenshots as my sig.

Wooow creepy! You can see the Dragon in the distance!

Wow, that's pretty impressive for the XBOX version. Can't wait to see the PC version, even more now!

» Tue Sep 13, 2011 8:42 pm

The first one makes me think: holy sh*t, polygons!

Good catch, didn't notice that.

Don't know if it's just me but NPCs eyes seems to look directly at the player, i.e. they're not just turning their heads towards you:

It's just before he casts the frenzy spell, there is a shadow of a bird flying by on the nearby ground.

Part 1 7:22

Got it. You can spot it in the distance in the first pic at the top of the screen, that's actually an eagle.

OMG are we going to fight eagles? :drool:

There's some pretty ugly tessellation on those rocks in the part 1 section.

This was just on Xbox, right? Has everything that Bethesda's shown been for Xbox so far?

Yes
They've shown neither ps3 nor PC footage

Great collection! These could all be a motivational posters. The lighting is great!

Thank you very much! :thumbsup:
Also, in regards to the "are we going to fight eagles?" it has been confirmed that we can indeed kill birds, I cannot place the write-up at the moment, but he, with a very lucky arrow, killed a hawk. The loot he gained was its beak as well as some feathers (possible arrow construction piece?)

Ah yes! The Gamesradar playthrough...http://www.gamesradar.com/spelunking-giant-hunting-swimming-and-looting-skyrim/?page=2 :foodndrink:

It might just be me, Maybe they're just not running at full capacity, But all it looks like is a slightly more polished Oblivion graphically. As a console gamer that makes me kind of depressed. I might just a PC version for higher resolutions and textures (Not to mention Mods) and gamefly my 360 version because I'm a GScore hoarder.

I'm quite optimist. By the look of many things you can tell we've been watching an alpha release. I've added a few comments in the first post.

That's very good to know. Screw dragons, I'm going to kill eagles and hawks :rock:

» Wed Sep 14, 2011 12:23 am

i opened all of them in new tabs at the same time :biggrin: anyone else? just me? Ok.....

I am amazed that 6 year old hardware with 64MB of video cash(not RAM) can look like this....

:goodjob: to the guys at BGS who are developing Skyrim, Those guys get all the praise they get and more...

EDIT: BTW OP, :goodjob: on getting all those caps, very impressive list and you got them in a way with very little quality loss.

» Tue Sep 13, 2011 5:25 pm

OP that is very impressive probably the best anolyzation i have seen of every piece of evidence out there. I have no idea how you saw the two things of the screen cutting... they look so obvious but are very hard to see and your right the dragon looks incredible.. i can't wait for this game
