Personally, I've found that sticking to one type of alcohol and drinking higher quality stuff tends to reduce the likeliness of a hangover. But more often than not, I fail to meet either of the aforementioned criteria.

I hate drinking around this time of year, everywhere's always so busy. Regardless, i'm looking forward to my turkey! In terms of presents I got some Aston Villa merchandise, a pair of Supras and some rather 'too expensive to wear' Ralph Lauren trainers. And also some clothes. I'm gutted nobody bought me Dark Souls, but then again, i'm the only nerd in the family. Merry Christmas and happy holidays!

Yeah, even though I don't have a compulsive need to play any more I can still kill countless hours. There's always one more thing to do before I turn it off!

Maybe this is the DLC? I hope it really is something and not just "fingerless gluvs" all over again.

They said that the DLC would be 'meaty'. So it will more than likely take us to a place outside of Skyrim, I think that's expected. Whether it be a daedric world or another island, i'm unsure. They did also add smaller DLCs to oblivion, like the stronghold and mage tower etc. Whether they will add small things like that to the game, I don't know.

I agree, recently I staged a bandit threesome in a cave near Markarth. Of course, I have a gauntlet fetish so they remained on. Anybody else miss the armour to greaves distinction? I used to enjoy running around topless...

We all want to go from rags to riches, and all these things just add to that experience. It gives us a sense of achievement.

Can't say I ever noticed that.

Customising cars, customising attire, customising safe houses... it's all the same pointless bullshit really. Personally, upgrading safe houses would be better than customising safe houses. I don't care if my sofa is red or blue, or if I can change the tiles in my bathroom. But adding a weapons stash, another garage space or a helipad are all things that would constitute 'upgrading' your safe house. These would be cool additions to the game.

Yeah you have to join the companions guild

This looks interesting. At about £230 I think I'll wait a year or so to even consider buying one though.

Yeah, a mixture of things to buy would be great. I want to make legal purchases with my illegally obtained money!

Only downside is that you don't get Well Rested or Rested bonuses from sleeping. Which give you temporary (8 hours) 10% or 5% experience boost, respectively. And people make certain comments, such as saying that you smell like wet dog.

You should be able to buy safehouses. There is never enough to buy in GTA. Money quickly becomes redundant.

I think that's if you're doing a quest or enemy are nearby. Could be wrong but I'm sure someone here could tell us for certain. You can save at anytime during the game. If it's greyed out then you must be talking to someone or performing an action of some sort. There are no other restrictions on when you can save. @Bones - originally Bretons were actually best as magic types, I think they're quite short as well.

Can't really go to Vinewood without movie studios, but I think a theme park would be a waste of space.

Problem with that is your own combat skills don't increase. My conjured Dremora Lord can kill a giant in two hits, but I want that experience for myself. That's why I don't use followers. Perhaps a system similar to Diablo, whereby your companion also levelled up along side you?

You should have to do a mission whilst drunk.

For the skyrim newbies: Get the Black Star Very useful daedric artifact for enchanting Do the quest in Frostflow Lighthouse for (Healing Spells Cure 10% More) Passive effect, meaning it's always on Pick a Guardian Stone Passive but you can only have one stone active at a time Gain a Blessing Temporary passive effect, you must renew every 8 hours and you can only have one at a time Give a coin to a bigger (Gift of Charity) +10 speechcraft for 1 hour, useful if you're about to go on a big spending/selling spree Hope that helps, that's all I could think of but i'm sure there are loads of other blessings and useful things. Reading up on your daedric artifacts could also help you get some cool stuff.

I made my player look more like Batman. I'm wearing Nightingale Hood and Armor, with Ebony Boots and Gauntlets. Fucking.Bad.Ass

Nightingale armour and a one-handed ebony sword makes you feel like a fucking badass. Talking about fucking badasses:

I had some SERIOUS frame rate issues earlier, so much so that it froze the game. Restarted and it was fine. Weird!

You can join multiple guilds at the same time. The civil war quest line is separate to other quest lines. In the civil war quest line you can only join one side, stormcloak or imperial... but they're both assholes. If you've cleared that lighthouse you'll have around 400+ Chaurus eggs

Maybe the whole 3-tier (or 2 in GTAIV) weaponry system will be scrapped and we'll get a more dynamic system. Obviously it would be nice to have a hierarchy of weapons though. Always good to go from a 9mm to a Desert Eagle, but perhaps something more dynamic or extended will allow for different play styles, diversity and reduce the redundancy of older weapons.
