Also, the sky is blue and the earth is round.
Skyrim is a popular game. Since its release last friday, it's been the title to play and mostly everyone is talking about it. It shouldn't be a surprise then to hear that the game has sold big. Real big.

Nick, Julian, and Esteban explore the notable games and lasting impact of the Xbox.
Back in late 2001, Microsoft first entered the realm of console gaming with the Xbox. Although its sales numbers are nothing impressive when compared to that of the PlayStation 2, it did manage to outsell longtime videogame company Nintendo's GameCube, which is still a fine showing for a first console outing. Despite being a massive financial loss for the company, it laid the groundwork for much of what is now standard in the gaming industry.
In an act of ultimate fan service, Link gets his own limited web comic.
Link has been in the spotlight quite a bit this year. His franchise, one of the most popular of all time, is celebrating 25 years. To celebrate this prestigious milestone Nintendo has given 3DS and DSi owners Four Swords for free, promoted a touring orchestral concert series featuring music from the beloved franchise and will be capped off with the release of Skyward Sword in less than a week. We can now add web comic to that list.
Available Now for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.
An unfortunate misstep that won't soon be forgotten.
Out of every game I’ve played this year, Assassin’s Creed: Revelations is without a doubt the biggest disappointment. For a series whose name automatically garners praise and adoration from the gaming community, this title is a blemish on its reputation. All of the passion and soul created by carefully weaving the ongoing plotline into evolving gameplay feels abandoned with Revelations. Without it, all that’s left is a game with a convoluted story and gameplay that is practically identical to Brotherhood.
Though the game has seen release elsewhere in HD, Nintendo's barren Virtual Console landscape is getting a notable addition.
Wii fans holding out for a new Virtual Console addition hopefully won't have to wait much longer. Capcom is currently working on preparing the Genesis/Mega Drive version of Super Street Fighter II for release on the platform. Despite being released remastered in HD on XBLA and PSN, the game is still due to hit the Wii to capture the rest of the market in its original form - well, mostly. Online play is being integrated into the experience, allowing both US and EU gamers to go online with this well-regarded classic.
As with other high profile fighting games, Soulcalibur V will get its own branded fighting stick.

Hori is known for making quality arcade joysticks and they usually make one for each big fighting game release.
