If you're brimming with excitement over Bethesda's next entry in the storied Elder Scrolls franchise, then head over to Facebook and say that you "Like" the official game series fan page. You'll be treated to a handful of the first screenshots of Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Of course, you could also go to fellow Future site GamesRadar’s official fan page and “Like” them, because they’ve got all the new images as well.
As should be expected in any Elder Scrolls title, the screenshots for Skyrim show vast, magnificent-looking landscapes and intriguing creatures. There is also a brief look at combat elements in the game, with a picture detailing various move types.
There's also five "Concept Art" photos from the upcoming game, mostly environmental in nature. For those who don't know, the Elder Scrolls franchise is known for sweepingly huge games that can take well over 100 hours to complete. Every entry is a big deal.
Check out all the screenshots in the gallery below!

This game is awesome. I just felt difficulty when it came to teach my character magic. It was really a hard job for me to gain magical skills. stop foreclosure

Finally! Real looking (women) Characters!! I had to download a mod for Oblivion to improve the look of the NPCs and my character.
Pre-ordered (as soon as I can)

This looks like it will look amazing on a 3 monitor surround set up. I just hope the story depth is there. My intro to RPG's was the Ultima series and so far there are few that can match the story of that classic (that E A burried). Still, the Elder Scrolls series is close and Dragon Age is also in the top class of what is available today.
I just hope it is not a console ported shallow game that just looks good, we will see, we will see.

Wow!! That first screenshot, just took my breath away (not the graphics, but the scenery). I feel like I just want to delve into the game world the instant I saw that.

I honestly think this is an improvement over Oblivion's ultra-vibrant graphics. Though it makes me wonder if the joke's going to be "Can it run Skyrim?"

Looks great! The haters say this new engine is merely a heavily-modified version of the venerable Gamebryo engine. I say: who cares? Bring the Nords of Skyrim! This is a must-buy.

I sure hope they fix the voice acting...it almost ruined Oblivion. Although, at first glance this game looks gorgeous.

The game is looking terrific. However, these screenshots are not new, they have been out for almost a month. They were in Gameinformer magazine and a ton of websites.

It's worth a check out. Although, it will mean an upgrade for me. Still. But, if there is no game theory behind it all the candy can go to the kiddies.

yikes, looks really awesome. can't wait. oblivion was pretty sweet (though, often repetitive). playing dragon age right now, and so far i'm liking it better than oblivion. but, will definitely play this despite oblivion sort of lacking

All of todays big games look good, I've yet to play anything that's great in a long ti me, tho. Eye candy is great when the game play is good, but what really good games have there been latley? Black Ops was a joke. I'm hopefull for Deus Ex, but we will see.

not sure if its a new engine or not but it looks like they've decided to keep that same annoying "glow" effect on everything. Bethesda makes some great games I just hate how they all have that same overexposed appearance to them.

That looks fantastic - thats a title i'd pre-order in a market thats full of first day botched releases.
