This game looks fantastic. It looks set to be a cross between the ever successful World of Warcraft and Oblivion.

Another fantastically original MMO title name this time from Zenimax Online Studios. This secret project will be set in a time of it’s own in the Elder Scrolls faction, 1000 years before the events of Skyrim.
“It will be extremely rewarding finally to unveil what we have been developing the last several years.”
- game director, Matt Firor
We should expect to see this beast arrive in 2013 on PC and Mac. Stay tuned for a teaser trailer.

Best RPG PC Game or Expansion 2010
February 26, 2011 By
Ok guys, you had a month to vote for what you felt was the best PC RP game or expansion of 2010 and now 504 votes later it’s all closed. It was super close between Dragon Age: Orgins – Awakening and Mass Effect 2 but one had to be the winner.
Here are YOUR top 5.
From the website:
Following the lineage of these two much-acclaimed RPGs, Divinity II: Ego Draconis has adapted many of the most famous elements that made these two original games classics. Divinity II: Ego Draconis makes use of the same classless system that was incorporated in Divine Divinity, which allows you to choose your own path as you become a Dragon Knight.
Bethesda’s only RPG release for 2010 made it’s way into the top 5 games. I was surprised that it didn’t rank higher though. I believe many gamers felt that they just ended up with an expansion for Fallout 3 which visually it did seem like that. However, gameplay and story wise it was classic Fallout thanks to the development team being largely from Obsidian Entertainment. Definitely worth checking out.
3 – World of Warcraft: Cataclysm
It’s not surprising that the third World of Warcraft expansion found it’s way to the top 3. The sheer number of WoW gamers was sure to give it’s placing a nice boost. This expansion, like the others, threw the game in it’s head with several new features such as Goblins and Worgens, new raid options and completely changed maps.
2 – Mass Effect 2
Mass Effect 2 scraped in at a close second. Bioware did a great job at responding to community suggestions from the first Mass Effect and fixing annoying things like the inventory system. They did however add that really annoying probe mining system that had a way of chewing up gaming time that you really wanted to spend blowing bad dudes up. A great looking game, I look forward to taking on the Repears in Part 3.
1 – Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening
There it is, number one… and it’s an expansion. It’s not surprising that the expansion to the highest rated game of 2009 would take place as the best PC RPG of 2010. Building off the enthralling story of Dragon Age: Origins, Awakening throw’s your character right back into the fray. Apparently the Darkspawn are NOT dead so you have to quest again to defeat them once more. A must play, but be sure to play Dragon Age: Origins first.
Bethesda Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Will Feature A Creation Kit
January 21, 2011 By
Bethesda’s main RPG franchises Fallout and the Elder Scrolls have been modded by the community basically since the day they came out. Bethesda has embraced their community because these mods continue to give the game new life long after the release date.
To prove this, Bethblog announced that Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will feature a Creation Kit which will give users the ability to tap into the new “Creation Engine” featured by Skyrim. The Creation Kit will feature a lot of tools that the Construction Kit featured in Morrowind and Oblivion.
Game Informer has given an in-depth summary of what you can expect from this new tool. You can read it here.
If you haven’t heard much about Skyrim you can view more on the official website here and watch the teaser trailer below.
Fallout New Vegas Collector’s Edition
May 12, 2010 By
Bethesda appear to be ramping up the media releases on New Vegas as the release date draws closer and closer. Gamespot were recently let loose at Fallout New Vegas as well as other prominent online gamer magazines.
One of the more recent things they announced was what would be included in their Collector’s Edition.
Thankfully it’s not just a rebranded version of the Fallout 3 Collector’s Edition (which was awesome by the way) but a series of new merchandise (that is casino themed of course) that you can add to your Fallout collection.
Included in the pack is:
- 8 Gaming Casino Chips.
One from each of the 7 casinos found in Fallout New Vegas as well as a special Platinum Chip recreation. - Deck of Cards.
Use these Fallout New Vegas themed cards to challange your friends to game of Caravan which is a brand new game created for Fallout New Vegas. - Hard Cover Novel.
This book, called ‘All Roads’ contains some of the back stories of characters that you will meet during your trip. - ‘Making of’ DVD.
Looks like an interesting documentary(/marketing piece) with a look behind the scenes on the creation and development of this latest Fallout game. - DVD copy of the game.
This looks like one of the more awesome Collector’s Edtions that I’ve seen. You can always use an extra deck of cards and I think the DVD would be really interesting to watch. I always enjoy finding out why they make certain decisions about characters, plots and objects in games.
With the release date still being listed as some time in Fall of this year, it’s time to put down that $10 to pre-order Fallout New Vegas at your favourite store.
