THE GOOD:
Great Free-Form Experience
Good Graphics
Very In Depth, and Innovative

THE BAD:
Tons of Glitches
Slow Loading Times

SUMMARY:
Okay, to start off...This is single handedly the greatest RPG I have ever played. Why?
It has quite amazing graphics, despite what many people say, and has tons of weapons, armor, potions, scrolls, everything.

It has hundreds of quests, and infinite possibilities for character creation.

There's the ability to enchant weapons, and items will many different spell effects...Oh, and the spells...You can create those too. Want a spell that does fire damage, and makes the opponent weak tof ire at the same time? You got it.

The environments are so enormous, that you might have to take a break in order to grasp it all...Which brings me to the first problem...You will HAVE to take a break, because of the very long loading times. It's not hard to understand it, because of all the content in the game, but it is still deterrent of the experience. But when it's not loading, you'll also have glitches. Bad ones.

Dissapearing textures, changing colors, lights through walls, and worst of all...Crashing. Even on the Xbox version.

There have definitely been better combat systems, but I wasn't all that dissapointed with the one in this game...The game is slow, so you'd expect turn-based.
Fortunately, Bethesda isn't like Squaresoft, and they aren't cheap enough for that.

Overall, the greatest RPG I have ever played, but it isn't for those who actually have a life, or like fast games. Not for you.

But for those who like to put time into a game, this is for you.

5/5, perfection

THE GOOD:
This is one of if not the absolute best game that I have ever had the ungodly luck to play!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you don't have it... I view you with the utmost pity. Screw what the ratings say. This game leaves perfection in the dust.

THE BAD:
To say one bad thing about this game would be blasphemy. If there is anything bad about it, the pure perfection cancels it out ten thousand times over.

SUMMARY:
I cannot sum up how perfect this game is. Everything I have said previously makes this game boring as bloody hell compared to what it actually is. Buy it. Buy it. Buy IT!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Xbox  GOTY GOTY on the wall 5.0

THE GOOD:
-Massive enviroment
-Most original idea ever
-So many different outcomes
-Level up system is great

THE BAD:
-Loading times suck
-Dirty disc errors? pssh

SUMMARY:
God, I love this game hardcore. I bought my Xbox for Halo, but this game is the reason why I love my Xbox. When I first got this game back in May of 2003, I rarely played it, mainly because I can almost never get hooked to an RPG. Then, during fall break of that same year, my friend showed me his badass lvl 128 character, and I was determined to beat him.

The first thing I can say about this game is its sense of freedom. I seriously feel as if this is a whole entire world. There are almost infinite choices to make, and I liked how you determine your own future. With bounties, reputation, guilds, and legions, you can range from being a rogue criminal to the head of the Imperial legion. Another aspect that I liked about the game is the stat system. It made me addicted to the game, and I was constantly trying to level up, get the best armor and weapons, and increase my reputation. And the story even makes sense, with Dagoth Ur and Vivec and the war between the Gods. Overall, this game is the best RPG I have ever played, except for GOTY, but that doesn't count.

THE GOOD:
Open ended.

Can literally do ANYTHING, you ask it, and it's sure to be a yes.

You will get addicted.

Thousands of Armors, swords, axes, blunt weapons, bows, arrows, keys, plates, necklaces, and everything else.

You can read 1000s of huge books about anything in the game from different species, to ancient ruins and towns, to gods to weapons to even you.

You feel like you live in this world.

There isnt a single place you cant walk/fly/swim to.

You can be a wizard, brute, thief....anything.

Can join many many houses and guilds, both with their benefits and consenquences to the way specific people will react.

a good main story if you ever want to follow it.

I played for over 100 hours, never even got half way through the main story, and not all of the other storys and quests and stuff you can do.

You can pick up anything you see in the game, from stones, pearls, keys, forks, napkins, plates, weapons....anything, as long as it doesnt exceed your weight limit. Be careful, people wont like you stealing from their house.

THE BAD:
Graphics are good but there is better.

Takes a while to get your character good enough to do anything.

Often run into trouble without expecting it.

SUMMARY:
GET IT!

Xbox  Morrowind III for Xbox 5.0

THE GOOD:
This game lets you do just about anything and everything. You can customize your character a great deal, and you have many, many options besides completing the main quest.

THE BAD:
The graphics are a bit unupdated and there are many glitches. Some people might experience boredom or frustration.

SUMMARY:
This game is not for everyone. Some of the impatient and non-rpg type people will probably not like it. The character graphics are a bit edgy, and the way people run and attack are awkward. The environment is nice and lush, though. There are many things to do, many, many, many things. You have the option of rescueing lost wanderers, seeking certain herbs and roots, killing random residents for no particular reason, and much more. However, sometimes the choices offered to you are a bit overwhelming, which make lead to boredom or frustration. Glitches can happen many times in this game, which could screw your whole file. However, many of the glitches can be harnessed, making your character godly and basically invincible, which has its shares of fun. The replay value of this game is extremely heightened due to the choices.

THE GOOD:
*The largest world in any RPG I have ever played
*There are so many different character classes and looks
*Almost infinite replay value
*Welcoming introduction
*Phenominal Music
*Excelent Enviroment such as weather, vegitation, creatures, buildings, land, and sound effects
*Litteraly hundreds of differend weapons
*So much armor
*You can steal anything you ever see, excluding furniture like beds tables and chairs. But can you really expect to get away with that?
*There are dozens of seperate guilds
*Hundreds of quests and sidequests
*Very well done story and history
*Freeroaming to no end
*Handy little journal
*You can raid corpses for ANYTHING you see on them
*about 300 seperate caves, tombs, and ruins to loot

THE BAD:
*Small glitches
*A spot of freezing

SUMMARY:
I absolutely fell in love with this game. I didn't know what to do with my character so i just started off as a thief. Soon i discovered that I could steal anything I wanted to. I took everything from the household decorations to the silverware. Almost everything. I could pick locks and pawn my stolen goods to get money.

Then I realized that I could be an adventurer. So I restarted my character. I didn't realize that it would take me literal days of gameplay to find just the majority of the hideouts to loot. When i was done, I had over 500 total bottles of alchoholic beverages. 200 some grams of narcodics. So much clothing you could open a JC penny's. And as many household anomilies I felt like I was the one man flea market.

For a while, I tried to get away from the game, but I was going through Morrowind withdraw symptoms. Sweaty palms when I wasn't even playing, dreaming that I was running around in a weird foreign world, making wooden swords in my forgery (garage) and trying to write in deadric. No lies man.

Finaly I gave up and went back to the game, I haven't been happier. I have so many expeditions. I will leave town for about a month in the game and come back with so much stuff you couldn't build a building big enough to hold all of it. I was just so happy when I got the big pay off. The money served me well.

I eventually became so good at the game that I decided to make a Nomadic character. He moved throughout the wilderness and dispised those who were relaxed into city life. So you can immagine what happened when I had to go into town to restock. My finger was so blistered from pressing the taunt button that I peed myself every time I thought of playing a hack 'n slash game.

But morrowind is no joke, only those who are hardcore players will master it. And everyone will be as impressed with this game as I was. I only wish that I could forget everything about the game so I could have that unique expirence again. Pure extacy is playing this game.

THE GOOD:
-open-ended
-massive world
-tons of options for clothes, armor, and more!
-you can do anything
-very interactive
-good graphics
-a good variety of differant items

THE BAD:
-glitches sometimes
-looooooong-ass loading times
-many things that want to kill you
-cliff racers (read below.

SUMMARY:
I got addicted to this game in less then 20 minutes. When I first rented this out of Jumbo Video, I ended up with a late charge of over $30 because I didn't wanna let it go.
I love this game, and anyone who doesn't, I don't want to know why. But, I still hate those cliff racers! They are these flying things that are native to all parts of Vvardenfell, and they like you best dead. Even so, nothing a good jab and slice won't take care of. This is the best thing that's ever happened to me, so I give it a perfect 5.

If you ever wanted an RPG that had a certain thing but you could never find one that did this game will have it. Believe me it is amazing. I have been playing it for 2 years and have put more than 30 hours into it and I still haven't come close to beating it. loves rpg's must have.

THE GOOD:
Every thing in this game is good the fact that you can literal do and be anything you want is impressive i bet no one very seen this game coming when zelda was out

THE BAD:
Just the normal glitches that about it but you can control the amount of glitches by saving often. And there are some tiems when you pick up an item where it glitches on you but it will do an automatic save beore it does. Kinda weird?

SUMMARY:
Okay to start off i have heard some people diss this game and well tosay to that screw you this game is great of coarse there are some minor problems but the game is so closs to reality with the soomthness for example when you walk by some one normally the don't respond but in this they do and there opnionchanges when you have a diferent clothes and armor on and when your fame rating in the world is at diferent levels. Over all this is a good game.
