I'll probably choose Nord or Imperial. 
 
Because I'm racist like that...

Same.

When in Skyrim do as the Nords do.

Argonian or Breton.

Nord. Who would not want to be a dragon slaying Viking? 

Gnome

Worgen.
 
Oops, wrong game.
 
I don't even know all the races :-p

American.

I'll either play as a beserker Orc named Glush or an Argonian mage named Percy

hm......... maybe I'll be a uh....... a thingy

What are the race options? Same as Oblivion?

Lizard folks for me too.  I tend to play Argonians...  even when they have hair on their head.
 
@Verb4tim: Hey, is that the Neuromancer cover as part of your icon?  
 
The races haven't been announced, but supposedly there are more choices than usual.

Dark Elf.

I'm tossing between a Dark Elf or a High Elf.  Dark Elf for the massive fire resistance that race always has, and High Elf for the increased magicka pool at the cost of 100% weakness to magic.  There have been ways to alleviate that huge weakness, so when that is taken care of it will always end up as a really powerful spellcaster race in the latter end of the game.

I've played Nord as my main / first character in every Elder Scrolls game I'm looking forward to playing in the homeland. Though I'm interested to see what the orcs are going to be like in Skyrim. If they are a playable race, I'll definitely consider one.

Which ever one looks the coolest, regardless of their abilities or how they compliment my play style. (Basically how I play Street Fighter as well :D) 

" Nord. Who would not want to be a dragon slaying Viking?  "

I usually play as a Breton, because of magical resistance! Same reason I roll with a drow in D&D games.

" whatever helps me the most to steal every plate in the city  "

Hooray for being the only person who plays Khajiit! Thieves Guild ftw!

I was an Ogre on my first playthrough of Oblivion, but then about 3 hours in I decided it wasn't for me and restarted as a Dark Elf guy that has a mix of expertise in magic and combat, a war-mage or something like, I forget the name that's listed in the game.

Dark Elf probably.

imperial

dark elf, same as in oblivion

Khajit, as usual.
 
Then a Nord warrior after.

Dunmer Spellsword. 
I am assuming it will be the same races, as I saw it posted that there will be 10, which is the same number as Oblivion. 

I heard there are going to be more races..so ill have to wait and see whats up. But probly imperial. I always have, so ill probly continue with it. Then from there ill play around with the races.

Being a Scandinavian, choosing anything but Nord seems like treachery.

Redguard

Nord, and fuck the Argonians. Those lizard motherfuckers invaded Morrowind in the aftermath of the volcano erruption. I really hope a race war happens where we slaughter them fucks.

Nord battlemage, especially now that you can wield a spell and a weapon at the same time. 

Seabiscuit. 

Probably a hot Viking chick with a massive Viking beard.

Redguard, just like I did for my first playthrough in Oblivion.

Nord because Skyrim, duh.

Probaly wood elf, due to its bonus stats to markmanship and sneaking. I've always preferred the sneaky bow+arrow combat style in TES, and i've alwyas enjoyed breaking in to houses at night and stealing as much valuable stuff as i could.

Nord easily.

High Elf (Altmer).

I usually prefer magic characters so I'll probably pick a High Elf.  If the main storyline is a lot stronger than previous games, then I might be inclined to roll with a Nord.
 
Still waiting on Bethesda to bring real dwarves into the fold.

Not sure yet, but I was a Dark Elf in Oblivion

Dark elf, there good spell/melee guys right?

I usually go with Nord, so it seems even more appropriate to do so in Skyrim.

I'll go with Dark Elf if they improved the model quality from Oblivion. If not, back to Nord, probably.

Maybe an Argonian, as it was the main race I played with in Oblivion.

Usually go Dark Elf.  Did a magic/stealth hybrid that worked out for me really well in Oblivion, and with the way the skills seem to go now, looks like it might go even better.
 
Nord does seem like the obvious choice for Skyrim, though. And it's been awhile since I've done a pure warrior in, well, any RPG.

Possibly an Orc. I was never really into Orcs till I started a Morrowind playthrough as one as a joke. Then I started taking it seriously, and now my Orc can kill almost anything in one hit with an axe. It's pretty badass.
 
If not that, a Breton. Or, hell, maybe I'll play as something I've never played as before. A magic central character might be a challenge.
