I'm not sure if you've heard, but there's a little game called Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim coming out tomorrow.  Luckily Bethesda is here to remind us the Epic RPG is out there, looming on the horizon like a silver dragon.  Today they released a video that shows off the combat animations in the game -- perhaps because they knew I considered what I saw at E3 to be wooden and completely lacking in actual combat animations.  Yeah, you heard me, wooden as Pinocchio's butt.

Anyway, while I can't expect Bethesda to change their tune overnight, I can expect them to ramp up the speed on the hype engine.  The game releases tonight at midnight, and as you can tell from the fan art above, players are eagerly anticipating the latest Elder Scrolls installment, or as I like to call it, Oblivion with Dragons.
