Skyrim Marathon - Part 01

WE LOVE YOU GREG!

you really need to uninstall the game from from the hard drive, greg. the textures look like shit until you do.

Yay! Now that I've played far more than 12 hours I feel safe watching this.

Now that I have a experienced a bunch of Skyrim myself I want to see Greg's experience.

It turns out he hit people with a sword. The exact same sword. For about twelve hours.

Oh, so he played Skyrim.

Thank you, folks, I'll be here all week!

I rented Skyrim this week but because I plan on buying it I had to take it back to the Redbox. However, as soon as funds open up I will be getting it and losing myself in it just like Greg is!

Actually rewatching parts of this after seeing pretty much the whole thing live AND spending 30 hours in the game myself. The Greg Kasavin effect! So many memorable quotes and moments that probably would have been nothing with another person "behind the wheel".

Missed this when it aired live, so glad I get to see it. Really have no interest in WRPGs, but being able to watch 12 hours of this should basically let me see what everyone is super into.

That 3rd time he went back to the starting area had me in tears.

This is very entertaining. Coming back to Helgen multiple times, and Greg not realizing it instantly was hilarious. I do really enjoy his commentary, I will eventually watch it all since it's fun to see his journey.

this game on the PC could really really benifit from a hot bar being added to it

Is there anyway to see the Oblivion marathon?

The Greg K Elder Scrolls Marathon has become the stuff of Gaming Legend. The popularity of this means that SOMEONE will be doing this for ESVI.

Really glad to see this on the site, I missed it when it was live. Looking forward to see the rest of it.

Is their copy of Skyrim installed? It looks pretty bad. >.>

36 minutes until over encumbered.

I'm so happy to watch him do a complete circle in the first hour, because I did the same exact thing. Ventured out, found the stones, went in a different direction, and before I realized where I was, I was wandering back into Helgen and going 'DAMMIT. THIS GAME IS AWESOME.'

HOLY SHIT ITS GREG KASAVIN.

I HAVEN'T SEEN THIS GUY IN LIKE, A BAJILLION YEARS

This marathon negates me having to buy a console or PC. Aces! Thanks, Giant Bomb!

Classy plug for Bastion, Jeff! LOL

all throughout playing this game i giggled like a child everytime i came across "Bone meal".

heh heh..i'll give you a BONE MEAL. BOOM!

fuck yes I missed this due to a busy week and then of course skyrimming.

@Tukenstein: It has to be. Those textures don't look right.

awesome marathon i watched the last half of it while i was at work ... now im gonna watch the first half ... :D

Wow loading times on consoles are LONG

ugh he didn't customize his character before he just hit ok :(

Damn the PC version of Skyrim is spoiling me. And I thought that there wouldn't be that much of a difference between the console and PC versions.

This is so much better than watching a twitchy, Justin.tv video.

Greg is my favourite person ever.

"Novice Hood. It's not a very good Hood. It's very new at being a hood." XD

GHOST MOOSE!!!

Also its weird how Greg says his sense of direction is bad because of video games while I would say video games have helped me develop an awesome sense of direction.

awesome. i have fond memories of the first Oblivion marathon and it's great to see this repeated in the new game.

Greg's awesome, the hood is indeed new at being a hood ... obviously! - I'm playing Skyrim right now and it's really interesting to see how fast Greg picks up on mechanics and design concepts. Figuring out some of this stuff took me considerably longer and I've put 100 hours into Oblivion.

Can't believe I'm just seeing this now.

Greg's Oblivion marathon was awesome and so is this one!

Where the FUCK has this been hiding? I've been looking for this since it came out. Damn duders!!!!

First time watching, already amazing 35 minutes in. Can't wait to see the rest!!!!

I forget when it happens (which video) but the audio will be very very low, so you all will have to turn your volume to max. It might happen at Part 4 or 5.

It'll be interesting to go and watch this after having 200 hours under my Skyrim belt (the reason it's so low is my computer kept running it worse and worse, and then I got a fancy new monitor with much higher resolution and I refuse to run it at lower than native pixel density).

This feature is really hard to find still. I only just found it again because I googled for it. No idea where it's hiding on the site. It's definitely not next to where you'd think they are, which is next to the morrowind and oblivion stuff. I thought they had to remove it or something.

Funny how he wants to read the loading screen tooltip/info in Deckard Cain voice when the first voice he hears is the game is that of Michael Gough, the voice actor.

Noooo, he can't fucking miss the character creation. God damnit.

This is months too late but these videos are in the features section. The Matrix Online and Star Trek Online videos are in the features section as well.

Yeah, I already found it but thanks. They're also on the Skyrim page if anyone has trouble finding part 2.

I love how he ends up back in the village, Greg is fantastic. :D

I stayed up all night watching the Oblivion marathon and the first half of this Skyrim marathon. Greg Kasavin is a great man.

I can't be the only person that comes back to watch this still? Greg is fantastic, and is truly entertaining. I doubt we will ever see this kind of thing from him again... but I can't help but hope that Greg will be given this same opportunity when a new Elder Scrolls is released.

Great times.

Why don't i remember this???
