Do people still get pumped when they see Trophy/Achievement lists ahead of time? That used to be the norm, though I suspect enthusiasm has died down considerably in recent years. If you don't mind quest-name spoilers, the Achievements for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim might be worth looking over.
These largely seem to be the same objectives that Bethesda has always had us complete. Leveling, exploring, stealing -- that sort of thing. I do love it when open-ended games try to get you to tinker with mechanics you might otherwise avoid, like "Hard Worker: Chop wood, mine ore, and cook food."
Really, I just want to go around being a bastard to Skyrim's citizens. None of these seem to get in the way of that goal, so no complaints here.

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

But Skyrim looks so polished and smooth that im very interested in playing it. I've been on a big RPG addiction for awhile.
So what?
Also, inferior textures. That is all.
Married: Get married.
Citizen: Buy a house.
Washed-up: Be unhappy.
Unwanted: Get no pussy for your efforts.
Bound Until Death.
That's not all. Mod support too. I played Oblivion a lot on Xbox 360, but thanks to mods, I played it even longer on my PC. I still play it today, as a matter of fact.
Not saying that consoles are inferior. I only played on consoles until the beginning of this year, but mod support is so, so sweet.
Yeah, there's a lot of mods.
Yeah, many of them are dumb or poorly made.
Yeah, there's a small learning curve to implementing them.
These do not change the fact that modding is possible on the PC. It's fine if you don't personally care about modding your game. But to anybody who is actually interested in modding and knows how to have fun with it, simply having the option to do so is a huge deal. Modding generates infinite replayability and new content far beyond even what the game's developers had in mind. You can't disregard the mod scene when comparing the PC to console version of a game.
