Xbox 720 confirmed. PS4 rumored to be released late 2012(early 2013).

Well, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to Google this stuff, but it does look like Microsoft will be releasing the new "Xbox 720" either very late in 2012 or early 2013. At the same time, it is rumored and quite probable that the new Playstation 4 will also be released at the end of 2012, likely before the Xbox 720.

Speculation has run amuck for quite some time now about both of these new consoles.

Apparently the new Playstation 4 will be running off an AMD graphics card while the Xbox 720 (codename “Durango”) will be running i7 with speculation of either an AMD or an Nvidia card. I cannot find a completely reliable source to positively confirm which. They seem to have one but have...

So sorry it took so long to get this up, but it takes awhile for research! And I hope you enjoy the map!


NOTE : The Map is not completely accurate. I will correct its flaws in the descriptions. Also, on this map, green marks the spot.

Frozen Mammoth can be found if you start at Aftland and go directly north. It is kind of in between Saarthal and Hob's Fall Cave, but a bit lower. Hob's Fall Cave should be where you see Frostflow Lighthouse on the map above. "What is it", you ask? Well, it's a mammoth frozen into the side of a glacier.

The Dwarven Altar is located in between Wayward Pass and Mount Anthor. It's pretty accurate on the map above. It looks pretty cool, but apparently there...

This article is a basic layman's guide to selecting a gaming notebook that will yield decent to high end performance for playing Skyrim and PC games in general. What is a gaming notebook as opposed to a regular notebook? The most distinguishing features of a gaming notebook should be that it runs cool because it's going to be put under a lot of performance stress, and that it has a decent graphics card. With that in mind there are other things to consider when selecting a gaming notebook.

Why a Notebook?

A lot of die hard PC gamers laugh at the notion of a "gaming notebook" because you can build a better, cheaper desktop for PC gaming with a longer lifespan than any notebook you could have built for PC gaming and they're right. While the technology for the components for notebooks has come a long way they have and most likely always be behind compared to desktops, and they are more expensive. While it's not that hard to build what I would consider to be a good desktop...

Have you ever wondered what life in Skyrim would be like if you were COMPLETELY on your own while avoiding NPCs? Fast traveling doesn't exist and all of your items come from the places you've been, not from merchants. This allows for additional hours of gameplay walking and collecting your goods rather than easily getting everything you could ever want quickly and, in my opinion, uneventfully. It's time to enjoy the little things and not worry so much about fame, money and power.
