I know for sure quite a lot of us have been waiting for this news. This means that a production copy has been send to the duplicators and that the packaging has already started. Ofcourse, it's possible that it will take a bit longer to get to us here, but it won't be that much longer anymore.

One thing is for sure, starting in May the US people can expect it for sale in their favorite store but we'll have to wait a bit longer I guess before our favorite games supplier has it in store ...

THE ELDER SCROLLS III: MORROWIND FOR PC GOES GOLD

Highly Anticipated RPG Features Groundbreaking Combination
of Incredible Graphics and Non-linear Gameplay


April 23, 2002 (Rockville, MD) — Bethesda Softworks™ announced today that the highly-anticipated role-playing game, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind™ for PC, has gone to gold master and will be in stores the first week of May. Morrowind will also be available soon for the Xbox™ video game system from Microsoft.

Morrowind is an epic, open-ended single-player RPG in which a player can create and play any kind of character imaginable. Players can choose to follow the main storyline and find the source of the evil blight that plagues the land, or set off on their own to explore strange locations and develop their character based on their actions throughout the game. Featuring stunning 3D graphics, open-ended gameplay, and an incredible level of detail and interactivity, Morrowind promises to be an experience like no other.

"We know the gaming community has been anxiously awaiting the arrival of Morrowind for a long time," said Todd Howard, project leader for Morrowind. "We were able to remain true to our goal of providing the deepest, most cutting edge RPG you can buy. I hope everyone will enjoy the game as much as we enjoyed creating it."

Morrowind is the sequel to Bethesda's award-winning titles Arena™ and Daggerfall®, highly regarded as two of the most intricate and compelling role-playing games ever released. Following in their footsteps, Morrowind has already garnered numerous awards from last year's E3 show and an impressive collection of accolades. PC Gamer Magazine called it "The best-looking 3D RPG ever," and GameSpy included Morrowind on its list of most wanted games for 2002.

"As has already been mentioned by numerous gaming publications, Morrowind will change the way we view role-playing games forever," said Vlatko Andonov, president of Bethesda Softworks. "We couldn't be prouder of the development team for what they've accomplished, for taking on a challenge like Morrowind and implementing it so skillfully."

*Shoots DevilKin*
are you serious?
it's just the sequel to one of the best role playing games ever made

Elder Scrolls I : Arena
Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall

Made special by the fact that you have a complete freedom of where you go, and what you do, with an interactive combat system where you make the "hack" "slash" movement with your mouse, so, from bottom to top was a stab, while from top to bottom was a cleave from the top etc
this game Roxors

And pitlord better be burning me a copy asap!!! LOL

plus, the graphics....the graphics *drooooooooools*

I think you get the message Pit
In the past you've corrected me in posts like this one where I was more specific.

Another hint :

Burn baby, burn, and the force may be with you (literally)
