Just a warning, it's the new Skyrim, by which I mean loaded with game-crippling bugs which tend to show up once you've sunk days into it. Corrupted game saves, frame rate's next to non-existent, game-critical missions that can't be completed... if the first patch doesn't fix a bit more than the 'Spanish language options for the NTSC release' it's going right back to Amazon.

What pisses me off is I'll also have to send back the utterly brilliant Death mask :x

'When asked about a patch, THQ PR responded that Vigil was "looking into the issue as we speak," and added, "The team is currently polishing "Argul's Tomb" [DLC] and prepping bug fixes for an imminent submission to first party."'

How about you redirect all resources to what matters here - and the DLC isn't worth a fcuk if the game's collecting dust or been returned :roll:

Was it definitely part 2?

There's a new console patch out soon, so we'll see what that does...

Recent figures suggest it's only sold 247k copies in the US, and I'd wager that's only because the game-crippling bugs don't show up for hours :roll:

And while console owners in Europe can't get a single patch as of this post, PC owners are on their third...
