I swear there was a better site, but.

http://www.systemreq...cyri/intro.aspx


Apparently I kick the Recommended requirements ass.
Good to know.
That site, and any like it are infinitely better than everyone posting their damn rig.
For my setup, that site's incredibly inaccurate.
There are a couple of games that the Intel 3000 is capable of maxing out (such as Oblivion, if you don't mind 30FPS), yet that website reports that it's below minimum requirements. Hence why I'm asking.

Breaking news! It has been leaked for PC as well! No cracks yet, it is a 5.1GB retail Steam copy from Belgium (whom, if you didn't know, released the game early for some reason) It is a legit copy and it's small size is due to the amazing compression according to Todd Howard. Not sure if this really requires a whole new topic so...discuss.
I live in Belgium and I know exactly why the shops are selling this game on 10/11/11, instead of 11/11/11. 11/11 is a national holiday, all shops are closed on that day. It's Armistice, to remember all the people who died in WW2, God Rest their souls.....

I don't know why exactly it has leaked from here though, maybe there are shops that are already selling it, I don't know.

It's not been verified it's real, easy way to find it is to search for the Nordic version.
But yea, there is absolutely NO confirmation it's real, and it first appeared on a website that is LOADED with fakes, so I'm not holding my breath. It got leaked 2 days ago, and since it's not all over websites yet, I'm betting it's fake.
I saw one very respected and basically the most reputable game poster on a big Warez forum claiming he got the game and is uploading it. He said it'll take another 3 hours or so to finish uploading it. I'm guessing when I get up tomorrow, the game will be online, but it'll be just like MW3, it still needs to be cracked and that'll take until the official release date :(

I hope Skyrim is torrentable quickly. I'd love to be able to start downloading it before I go to work, and then wait for a crack after that.
Actually, hopefully it's cracked quickly too...so I actually can play it. I'll be way more focused on SR: The Third when it comes out on the 15th. So I have a limited window of playtime for Skyrim.

I might buy it just for convenience sake, even if I despise the price jacking.

Ultra High, its at 60 fps, but I was screencap spamming so it dropped a little, works like a fucking dream. graphics are amazing.
Note that IMGur makes the image look bad since it changes it to a JPG

How do you install the game ? I saw somewhere that the .iso floating around was just a copy of the DVD, and needed steam activation for installation.

btw, I'm asking that by pure curiosity, I'm already installing it by going through a VPN
