Skyrim is too far away. : III - Morrowind

GameStop can order it for you and it won't cost anything over what you would pay if they had it on the shelf. I just picked up a copy MW GOTY about 4 months ago at best buy for 20$(that's PC though).

BUT, i don't think it will work on the 360 if i get the Xbox Original version.

Yes it will.

It will. I'm 99.99% sure Morrowind has backward compatibility.

That is helpful, thank you. i still would like to see it on the XBL Marketplace for other people to have access to it.

I'd love to play it again.

» Sun Jun 26, 2011 11:15 am

the only way i can buy it is to order it and i'd rather not do that.

Whats wrong with that? Not like anyone is gonna send you something than track you down a kill you....... :___

Anyways I rather it be a XBLA game rather than a XBLO game considering that way we can get achievements, and it better have the expansions lol but either way I really don't care unless it had achievements since I already own the GOTY version

i don't like ordering things online and putting my information on there.

I'm pretty sure just about any PC nowadays can run Morrowind...

I posted the spec earlier, they are indeed very modest.

Didn't notice you posted them, but looking them over, I'm positive that most people on this forum can run the game on PC just fine. Also, the game still has quite a few crippling bugs, which can only be fixed on the PC version. Seriously, NPC drift is annoying as [censored], thank god it's easily fixed.

They weren't always modest...

Anyone picking up Morrowind for PC and has power to spare I recommend installing this as part of your base game; http://www.fileplanet.com/218533/210000/fileinfo/The-Elder-Scrolls-III:-Morrowind---Morrowind-Overhaul-Mod

^Yes, I'm very aware of the progression of technology and how far behind the curve a 2002 game is, thank you.

i've been looking for a copy for2.5 years, xbl would be great, throw in arena and daggerfall XL too

As i said earlier to another poster suggesting MW for PS3, that would require a complete re-code and that will never happen. There is hope for MW on Xbox Live because the original code will just work without any need to change it. I will post Pete's reply when i get it and we will know what is up.

Try Amazon, I got a mint Morrowind GotY there.

MW for XBL sure, PSN maybe not as simple as it for XBL but both for PSN and XBL is more doable then Arena and Daggerfall on them both.

Talking about what Beth should do with their games they need to make Brink F2P due to its largest competitor (some say the game that was copied to a t to get Brink) is F2P now

» Sun Jun 26, 2011 5:56 am

It will. I'm 99.99% sure Morrowind has backward compatibility.

BUT it runs slowly and has glitches/freezing/insane loading times out the wazoo. Trust me it got so bad I went to morrowind on pc and haven't looked back. I'd love a morrowind on my xbox that isn't sooooooo glitchy. I'm amazed I even finshed morrowind when it came out on xbox back then with the constant freezing and reloading of saves :sadvaultboy:

I personally think that Bethesda should put Morrowind on the XBL Marketplace as an Xbox Original. It would not only help hype Skyrim but I think it would sell very well. MAYBE if we can get enough people on the forums to agree, then they will! I'm not sure about PSN. Thoughts?

edit: I realize this SHOULD be on a different forum but i posted it in anticipation for Skyrim so i figured it wouldn't be a problem.

As long as it's the GOTY version with Tribunal and Bloodmoon, then hell yes.

I personally own the disc for both PC and Xbox, but.. for those who don't, especially Xbox, it can be hard to find.

EDIT: Last I played my GOTY disc on the 360, it had no hardware issues at all. I got to like.. level 29, finished the Main Quests and did some sidequests. Stability-wise it was BETTER than my PC version.

Well...if they're going to release it for download on XBL/PSN, they should include the other DLC for MO(yes, there was more) Don't remember, but there was armor, armor updates, a new island like area with quests, and some other places/things I think.

Siege at Firemoth, Area Effect Arrows, Entertainers, Adamantium Shipment, Helm of Tohan and.. I think maybe one other.

And yes, they should have them. That'd also be the first time Xbox-ers could play them!

...Bitter Coast sounds, LeFemme Armor, and Master Index. That's all of them

Thanks UESP!

I SO FORGOT ABOUT BC SOUNDS. =D

And thank you for completing my list! ^_^

This actually sounds like a great idea, having Morrowind on my Xbox and PC sounds like fun

» Sun Jun 26, 2011 2:20 pm

Give Pete some time to get it sorted. Obviously it's supposed to be on there.

@DCDeacon Hey Pete, can you tell me why Morrowind is not available on X-box live anymore?

@worm82075 Actually I can't. I didn't realize it wasn't. I'll look into it.
