PC for the reason that I've probably been ninja'd a gazillion times already: MODS.

PC even though my current system doesn't have a hope in hell of running the game, plan on upgrading soon and hopefully that will come before Skyrim does.

This a million times over. If you buy a Bethesda RPG for a console system, you are either unlucky because you don't own a halfway decent PC, or you are a massive retard.

THE MODS - OMG, THE MODS. Seriously the best thing about Bethesda RPG's is the modding community. So much endless fun.

PC. Are there any options when Creation Kit is announced? I just feel sorry for those guys who'll play Skyrim on any console XD

In any case, if i wanted to cause offence i would have said something like "Anyone who doesnt have a gaming PC is a retard"

So shuddup.
That's coming from someone who just generalised millions of people, and you're telling me to "shuddup"?

Also, the primary definition of "idiot" and "fool" are both derogatory, "retard" on the other hand, the primary definition of that word is not what you think it is. Using the words "fool" and "idiot" are more disrespectful than saying "retard", at least in a technical sense.

PC, there's no way I'm spending loads of money on a console version that can't be modded.

Come on, please. You know exactly what the word 'retard' means these days, and you also know it's much more insulting than 'fool' or 'idiot.' Stop trying to make yourself look clever and just ignore him.

PC. I made the mistake of buying Fallout 3 on PS3. Its not a good idea. Not terrible, but the fact its unmoddable just grinds me when I read about it.

Xbox, both because I have a crap computer, and because I've had a crap computer for so long I'm actually better with a 360 controller than a mouse and keyboard.

I know, there is no hope for me.

Tch, and you're calling me a troll?

Yes, "fool" and "idiot" are not offensive, but they are technically more derogatory than "retard", yeah sure most parts of society don't see it that way, but I do and I tend to ignore it most of the time.

Like I said before, you generalised millions of people, why would you do that? You assumed a great deal and assuming such things is never a good idea.

I'll be getting it for 360.

Better controls, WAY bigger screen, stable game-play and lack of irresistible cheats are my reasons.

I will probably get it for PC in time when the modding community has been well established.

EDIT: Wow. After reading through this thread, I feel like a leper for holding the opinions that I do. Seriously people, the mods won't matter for several months and even when they do, not having them does not mean I am an idiot.

I dunno, you're probably going to have to need a nicer-end computer to play this game on good graphics at a decent fps.

I'll be playing it on the PC, but because I can run it on my laptop on higher graphics than the XBOX. I don't care much for elderscrolls mods. I've always liked the vanilla versions better.
It doesn't take much to run a game at 720p at 30 frames per second at medium settings (360/PS3 levels). I dropped a 25 dollar video card into a crappy single core sytem and was pulling that off on newer (2010/2011) games.

For 415 dollars, I got a system that runs Crysis and the Witcher 2 at almost full settings at 1080p. Guess what else is around that price?
You got a system that runs Crysis at 1080p at full fps for $415?

What did you buy?

Edit: I don't really like playing any modern games at anything less than 1080p
I mean it will dip down into the 30s when the action is really heavy, but it hangs around 45-60 pretty much everywhere else. Including the snow levels. Except for the final fight, which is one of the most unoptimized messes I have ever encountered.

Athlon II X4 3.00 ghz $100
5770 $100
Case $30
4 gigs 1333mhz DDr3 $30
Asus Mobo $70
1 TB HDD $50
PSU $30

$410

Plus I ripped the old HDD out of my computer and used it to install XP (recovered it and it recovered onto my new drive as it was first in BIOS); and I ripped the old DVD drive out.

Though eventually I put $30 into a wireless mouse and keyboard and $100 into 64 bit Windows 7, but that was optional.
I'm surprised at how cheap that is. Where did you get it?
Sales; I used Amazon for the case, TigerDirect for the memory, Superbiiz for the HDD, and Newegg for everything else. Free shipping on everything.

PC, I want to...No, I'm going to use the Elder Scrolls Construction Kit to mod around and to use mods by other peeps.
Also, I don't own any next-gen console.

God, I hate fags. I hate fags with their big motorcycles and all the noise they make.

Xbox 360 out of necessity, I would love to play it on PC like I did with Morrowind but sadly that is not within my laptop's capabilities and I am unable to afford a PC that would allow me to run this game.
Still looking forward to it though
