    In my Football Manager 11 game (Im managing Bristol Rovers before anyone asks) Sunderland have just broken their transfer record to sign Eljero Elia for £15.75million.

    All Im saying is, you heard it here first.

    He is a forward, plays for hamburg but isnt exactly prolific in the scoring stakes.

    got tense and worked up watching that, especially when it speeds up, can't imagine playing it, I'd drown in my own sweat.

    Remember Space Invaders well mate also remember counting the moves and shooting certain Invaders to get the big points space ship to fly across the top. Always liked Defender better than any others though Galaxian was okay but, got about 1 million points on Defender took about an hour, smart bombs were the way forward and turning round to get the little blokes the aliens dropped.

    Just a series of RPGs. What I love about them like you say, is the detail. The developer's philosophy behind The Elder Scrolls series is giving the player as much choice as possible. So you get given a huge world and a character to explore it with. Whether you choose to follow the main story, thats your choice, you could just ignore it altogether and go around robbing peoples houses. Basically, its a giant toybox of a world to play in.

    what platforms is it available on? Seems like something I'd enjoy, not a fan of linear gameplay and from what you just said, The Elder Scrolls is a sandbox style game.

    Definately PC and more than likely PS3/360, i prefer the PC versions though as they have a great modding community

    Yeah PC 360 and PS3, but the graphics on the PC version are -far- better than the consoles, however you need a well expensive rig to run it. Ill just be getting it on 360 I reckon as my PC can only run games on medium setting anyway.
