Thanks to Luke from Ferrago for sending along word of their dual system (PC & X-Box) review of Morrowind. They eventually settled for an overall score of 90% for both versions.
Here's a snip from the intro:It was a hard decision to make. When faced with the dual proposition of reviewing either the PC or Xbox version of The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, I had to weigh the options. The PC version can be run at a higher resolution, is patchable, and also contains the bonus “Elder Scrolls Construction Set” disc, enabling users to create, share, and download new quests, items, dungeons, and more. However (and I know this opinion has the potential to get me lynched), the PC version is actually just another title in the seemingly endless glut of PC RPGs. Whether it is a MMORPG or not, it can be argued that the choices for PC RPGs are many. When it comes to the Xbox, however, Morrowind marks the first appearance of an RPG on Microsoft’s new console, making it a landmark title in that respect. Bearing that in mind, I decided to start with the Xbox version and take it from there. |
