Over the last few weeks, no game has been getting as much international attention as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. It went on to sell over $775 million in five days, shattering pretty much every entertainment launch record in history. But while MW3 may have the headlines, it isn’t the title that most gamers are talking about. That honor belongs to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Although it hasn’t come near the new high water mark set by MW3 in terms of sales, Skyrim is receiving both commercial and critical love (you can find our review here). It continually gets mentioned as a game of the year contender, and the sales have been more than respectable. It won’t be the best-selling game of the year, but a second place finish is a very real possibility. Regardless, the game is a hit, and the looming holiday season should boost the numbers even higher.

So if you haven’t yet picked up a copy, or if you have but like it so much that you want a one-of-a-kind version of it to lord over your friends and taunt them, here’s your chance.

We are giving away two copies of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, one for the PS3 and one for the Xbox 360, and both copies are signed by developers from Bethesda Game Studios!

So how do you get your hands on a copy? Simple: Just post a comment below telling us what your favorite game of the year is thus far, what system you want a copy of Skyrim for, and you will automatically be entered to win. If you have no system preference, that’s fine, just tell us that. This contest is open to U.S. residents only.

Then on Monday, November 28, we will pick two winners and contact them for their shipping info. Once we have that, the game will be sent to you via Blockbuster Video.

Blockbuster would also like to extend a special offer to fans planning on buying either Skyrim or Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Purchase either game from Blockbuster, either online or in the brick and mortar locations, and you will receive a free month of video and game rentals! For more details, click on the link: www.blockbuster.com/skyrim.

So for your chance to win, just post below, tell us your game of the year, and let us know your system preference to automatically be entered to win!

By the way, we are also running a similar contest for copies of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. Click here for the chance to win!

Good luck!

Don’t buy Skyrim for a 5th time. Mod the copy you already own

This November, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will arrive ... again. Gaming journalists have had to write that sentence many times in the decade since the game has launched. Skyrim originally landed on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC way back in November 2011. In November 2017, Skyrim actually released twice, with one version for the Switch and another for PlayStation VR. This year, Skyrim is being released in November once again as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - Anniversary Edition. And those are just the times it rereleased in November, specifically. There's more where that came from. However, this year's version of Skyrim isn't like the rest -- this one comes with mods.

But I'm going to ask Skyrim owners and people who don't own the game yet to try something new. Instead of being handed a list of 74 mods by Bethesda, get Skyrim on your computer and mod it yourself. It's one of the most satisfying experiences in gaming -- and I'm speaking from experience.
Skyrim, your way
Modding has been around for Skyrim nearly the entire time it's been available to purchase. At Nexusmods, the go-to site for modding just about any single-player game out there, users have nearly a decade's worth of mods at their disposal. Sure, there are a lot of bad mods (and a fair number of weird or pointless ones), but that's made up for with the mods that can give Skyrim a completely new feel and style.

This news comes by way of the Quakecon livestream on the official Bethesda Twitch account. As relayed to us by Nibellion on Twitter, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition will offer a free next-gen upgrade and will include new features as well.
