At the moment we've got Fallout 3 for this year and potentially there's a new Elder Scrolls title in 2010," said Oughton. "At the moment we're not that interested in the Wii. We're going to stick to PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. We'll continue to pursue three or four titles a year and go for big titles," he said of the company's publishing plans for the future.
Not quite a grand announcement, and I'm sure Bethesda will be quick to clarify the remark. Watch this space.

[mod]Rubbish. Nothing more, nothing less. Enjoy the ban.[/mod]
Personaly I'd be content if they made a serious RPG instead of a hack'n'slash action adventure game.
The problem is they have basicly told (in so many words) all of the 'older' players who prefer an actual RPG to shove off, as they prefer ADHD addled console fanbois as their target market.
Dont belive me (Theres gotta be someone who'll call me on it) then why did they advise using a RRODbox360 controller to fix 'issues' with some of their various games that came out around the same time as oboivion....... (or the freaking HORRIBLE GUI thats designed for display on a TV screen being foisted on computer users).
That said TES:V COULD be good.....
IF............
If they decide to not go and blow the budget on HDR bloom and celeb voices that, to be honest, you barley hear thru the period of the game.
But that said, I think they've more than proven themselves to be currently incompetent in producing a serious RPG. Morrowind was ok, it was a hacknslash RPG, but it at least was an RPG (tho it had HEAVY JRPG elements, in that there was no real alternete endings avalible, IE: you cant betray everyone for revenge), then they get a few trek games (admitedly not RPGs, but this fits into their not being able to deliver) and essently deliver a mod of a game that was over 6 or so years old at that point (literly, about 1/3 of the engine, even all of those annoying nebulas in ST:Legacy were DIRECT ports from ST:Armada 2), so then they do oblivion...... Even less RPG elements, I mean for christsake at least in morrowind you could only lead ONE house (unless you knew exactly what steps to take, thru multiple playthrus, or metagamign using internet resources). But yeah, Im not going to go into oblivions issues, since were all players of that game, and the fact that mods are so freaking essentel makes my point.
THEN there was Fallout:3rd spinoff. They used the name of prehaps one of the top 3 RPG franchises of all time (of quality RP of the game, I mean) and they turn it into a total conversion mod for oblivion. Nuclear catapults, indeed.
So yeah, I', hoping for a great TES:V, but Im sure not hopeful.
Ah well, at leat I get a good LOL with most of the mods I DL, wondering how the hell those fools have their jobs, when some of the great modders produce better content while stoned.
I agree. Not everyone can afford an Alienware computer with two processors and two video cards. On my PC to play Oblivion with any kind of acceptable FPS I have to set the resolution to 800 x 600 and disable most of the visual effects. I'm always finding myself wishing that Bethesda had not tried so hard to impress us this time around. Morrowind runs perfectly for me though, and a game with a similar look and feel would not disappoint me at all.
Parental Guidence is installed on the internet and computers, parents should use it!
Damn right, don't complain about a situation which is able to be ocntrolled.
This game made my child violent!
Why did you buy it for them while they were too young then?
Etc etc etc...
My personal view though, 2010 is too soon, the game would be beyond buggy.
Graphics, have never been the major selling point for the Beth fans. (Xbox360 and PS3 fans not included.)
A construction set should be allowed, without it, the game would become outdated befor they realease their own patches, let alone updates.
actual things to add to the game itself....
my POV:
A Crafting System!!!!
You are not an armorer if you only repair, your a repair-man(woman) if you only repair, Armorer's MAKE armor.
Add the abilty to place your furniture where you like, not at a pre-set design of somebody who studied interior design for a month.
Add a better economy, perhaps one that actually runs and not one based on a pre-set value.
Well thats my three cents.
As no such thing as OBSE could get in..and everyone could only use a specific amount of mods and they would have to be 100% functional as well!
To my opinion..there are already so much mmo's. I don't think they have it too high on their list...
This is an article I found today (Wasn't at home back then): Link
The Elder Scrolls V - Tamriel.
It should be online
In the game it should include all of tamriel, so that you could travel around, level up, do quests, and maybe even some kind'a Hard Dungeon wich would give special loots?
Really, if Oblivion was an MMORPG, it would be the best.
And the reason it should be all of tamriel is; otherwise there wouldnt be enough buy-able houses for ppl, there wouldnt either be enough space if 50 ppl was to run around in cyrodill and kill monsters.
But I think by letting player host their own servers, it wouldnt ruin the ownage game.
And NONONO Im not saying it should be like WoW or something like that, it should keep the oblivion / Morrowind terms, but just multiplayer, and alot more space, quests, buyable houses, cities, dungeons, group dungeons, group quests. and so on
It should be like a mix of Diablo2's Battle net and Oblivion's Graphics, and finally Morrowind's Sweet gameplay.
