Bethesda has released its Creation Kit and Hi-Res Texture pack for Skyrim! They are available through the steam client. There will be a rating system as well for everyone to download and rate mods! I personally applaud Bethesda for releasing this kit. It will allow easier access for modders and the end users alike to enjoy newly created content.

Skyrim musical covers. Let me know who’s your favorite. These are a few of mine:
And just what would Skyrim be like in the real world? Check out this youtube vid by GroBroPros!
I decided to start building a larger structure in the mountainous regions away from our SMP town. This is what started to take shape.
I’m definitely more of a builder of utility than outside appearance.
The large room on the lower left will be a large farm which will have trees, melons, pumpkins and reeds. I will probably create another room that does cactus by itself though as I can funnel the drops into the big room. If there is room I may also try to get wheat in there as well. I will use pistons to harvest the reeds, melons and pumpkins as it can be done fairly easily. I have yet to figure out a way to collect the items after auto-harvesting (without re-planting). Stay tuned for updates to this minecraft construction. Please let me know if you have figured out a way to collect the harvested items with reasonable efficiency.
There are many Let’s Plays out there for Minecraft, and it would probably be impossible to put together a full list. I have compiled some of the more known (to me) Let’s Plays and assembled them. Please vote and leave a comment if your favorite isn’t on the list and I’ll add it.

Minecraft patch 1.1 patch came out on the 12th and it had me playing this weekend. I backed up and updated my SMP server and got to work. One of the biggest updates for me was that bows can be enchanted. This had me fixing my spider spawner trap and getting my levels up so I could enchant some things. They also fixed the sheep not regrowing wool. It seems that I now can expand my barn and farmyard to include sheep of every color, so I can repeatedly clip them. There were quite a few other updates and I will post a few below along with the link to the update notes.
Bows are now enchantable, with four new enchantments specific to bows: Power, Punch, Infinity, and Flame.
Sheep eat Grass (converting it to Dirt) and Tall Grass to regain their Wool.
Sheep only drop 1-3 wool per shearing.
Leaves now have a 1/200 chance of dropping Red Apples.

My girlfriend and I have just landed on Balmorra and are getting ready to start our quests there. We group up about 50% of the time, and do separate crafting and story-line quests on our own. The Marauder and Sorcerer work fairly well together although at times a bit squishy without a tank. So far there really hasn’t been a battle that we couldn’t handle. We will probably step into the PVP zones after we are a little more comfortable with our characters. What class combos are you using with your GF/BF?
Update: Bashiok, Community manager for Blizzard released this update on twitter…
Diablo III does not have a release date. Any store or person claiming otherwise is guessing.

Diablo 3 has a release date of some time in the first week of February according to multiple sources. Best Buy and Target are among those to be reporting although with different release dates. Best Buy is showing Feb. 1st while Target is showing Feb. 7th.

I got up from bed a while ago and sat down on the couch with the Laptop. Stared at the game icons for a bit and couldn’t decide what to choose. Here is my list of games (currently installed).
Skyrim, SWTOR, Minecraft, Doom 3, Half-Life 2, KOTOR, FEAR, Fallout 3, LOTRO, Conan, Starcraft 2, NWN 2 and HOMM3.
What shall I pick?
When I’m done swinging my lightsaber in SWTOR or firing my bow in Skyrim, I always come back to Minecraft for some relax and building. For me personally there just isn’t a game that is comparable in this aspect. I just grab my pick and away I go.
