Between High Rock and a hard place – Chronicling the Elder Scrolls part III
The Skyrim game world itself will be roughly the same size as that in Oblivion, and players will still have the ability to fast-travel between previously visited locations and although there is still no official conformation or denial of the opportunity to own and ride horses, the game's director Todd Howard revealed that there will be a carriage-based transport system that the player can utilise to travel to some major locations that they have yet to visit.
Brink or you'll miss it
Bethesda Softworks are taking no prisoners this year and have a lot of Major titles and DLC coming your way in 2011 starting with 'Brink'.
This is a game I first got to have a play with last year at a few of the Game expo's we attended and it was looking rather special back then. As you may remember my only concern was it may be just a little complicated for your average gamer and the recent succesion of instruction videos for Brink over the month before release says that my fears were not unfounded.

Best bar Nirn - Chronicling the Elder Scrolls: Part I
Every couple of months, a game is released that steals hours of your life. You know the ones, they cause you to rush home from work, set up your console and ‘just finish that bit I was stuck on last night’ and before you know it, it’s gone midnight and you still haven’t even made dinner. And then every now and again, you get games that swallow up entire weekends, along with the evenings, lunch-hours and time usually reserved for the other half/kids/pub.
