The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Confirmed and Dated

This is the announcement I've been eagerly anticipating for four years. Tonight at the VGA's, Bethesda designer Todd Howard took the stage to announce the title, which will release on November 11th, 2011. As we previously reported, this will be a direct sequel to Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Personally, Oblivion took over my life for about two months straight. I did just about nothing but sit at home and play. If Skyrim sucks me in even half as much, I'll be impressed but not surprised. Bethesda is good at what they do.
