That indicates the game is still very much in development (despite rumors to the contrary) though there're still no in-game screenshots or video. Read More »

By Justin Ramos | PC Articles | Jan 16, 2012 2:30 PM | Comment

Skyrim is a fantasy world of magical lore and devastating mythical beasts -- but that doesn't mean it can't be realistic. For gamers who prefer their adventures as believable as possible, I've gathered up a collection of awesome mods that make Skyrim feel a little more like reality, including true-to-life physics, making eating chicken and naptime relevant, and a reason to close your bedroom door tightly while changing clothes, away from Lydia's peeping eyes.
