Artists need only the best in physical reference models for mechanically sound creations in their works. For The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim, that means a humanoid with a yellow rubber chicken wedged firmly between its buttocks. (Around 2:10 into the trailer.)
Video Blips:
• Bethesda's RPG wizards discuss the heaping helpings of gamer-nip they've crafted into Skyrim's gargantuan world. That's alright, I wasn't planning on living a normal life for the entire month of November in the first place.
Continue after the break for some of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's new multiplayer modes, the launch of Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, and the twin blue streaks of past and present in Sonic Generations.
• Kill Confirmed and Team Defender modes for Modern Warfare 3's multiplayer allow those who tire of shooting people in the face to continue shooting people in the face with slightly different rules. I guess floating pieces of metal are more accurate confirmations of death instead of visually observing someone riddled with bullets crumpling to the ground.
• Master Chief, the Covenant, Cortana, and the rest of the gang revisit space's most famous wedding band in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary. I'm always glad for another chance to valiantly send my Warthog off a cliff with my superb driving skills.
• Time presses on, but that doesn't stop Sonic's continuous crusade against fat doctors in Sonic Generations. I wonder if Sonic would keep his blazing agility if he had to hold a pair of scissors the entire time.
