Just Spring for now.

If I had to guess, I would say early May.

Wow, it looks sweet. But I always have problems with non-linear games... in Daggerfall I used to just break in shops and steal everything then go sell to another shop (which I think was an exploit if I remember correctly)... don't know, it's been so long.

This game looks really promising... and the water!!! WOAH!

I dont really think my P3 733, 256 meg ram, 32 meg GeForce 2 GTS card will really run this game all that well... I may just wait until I have an xbox and get that version.

Just talking about the actual game, are there any big differences between the xbox and the PC version?

The PC version lets you build your own dungeons, creatures, spells, etc. with a game editor/tools. The xbox one won't. Regardless, I think the basic game will provide more than enough entertainment/replay value as it stands.

try the wmv version. If you have windows media player there shouldn't be a problem.

This trailer crashed 3 servers the day it came out. If you can dl it, make sure you save it so that you get the whole thing.
