Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3may be the biggest game to hit this week, but the most talked-about is definitelyThe Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. In fact,Skyrimmight be an even bigger hit thanModern Warfare 3— at least on Steam, where it nabbed 231,593 users within twenty-four hours!
By comparison, Activision’s mass-marketing powerhouse welcomed 78,161 players within the same period. Bethesda’s RPG has completely eclipsedCall of Dutyon Steam, and one can only assume it’ll be getting more and more users over the coming weeks.
That’s absolutely ludicrous, but I cannot say it’s not well deserved.Skyrimis, hands-down, my game of the year so far, and with a little over a month left of 2011, I can’t see that changing.
