Over the last few weeks, no game has been getting as much international attention as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. It went on to sell over $775 million in five days, shattering pretty much every entertainment launch record in history. But while MW3 may have the headlines, it isn’t the title that most gamers are talking about. That honor belongs to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Although it hasn’t come near the new high water mark set by MW3 in terms of sales, Skyrim is receiving both commercial and critical love (you can find our review here). It continually gets mentioned as a game of the year contender, and the sales have been more than respectable. It won’t be the best-selling game of the year, but a second place finish is a very real possibility. Regardless, the game is a hit, and the looming holiday season should boost the numbers even higher.

So if you haven’t yet picked up a copy, or if you have but like it so much that you want a one-of-a-kind version of it to lord over your friends and taunt them, here’s your chance.

We are giving away two copies of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, one for the PS3 and one for the Xbox 360, and both copies are signed by developers from Bethesda Game Studios!

So how do you get your hands on a copy? Simple: Just post a comment below telling us what your favorite game of the year is thus far, what system you want a copy of Skyrim for, and you will automatically be entered to win. If you have no system preference, that’s fine, just tell us that. This contest is open to U.S. residents only.

Then on Monday, November 28, we will pick two winners and contact them for their shipping info. Once we have that, the game will be sent to you via Blockbuster Video.

The Elder Scrolls VI has to be a decade game, says Bethesda’s Todd Howard
The Elder Scrolls VI

Bethesda Game Studios director and executive producer Todd Howard admitted that the next Elder Scrolls game has major expectations to live up to, according to an interview with GQ. Following in the footsteps of Skyrim, The Elder Scrolls VI, which is still without its official title, "has got to be a "decade game," Howard said.

Making a game that's meant to be played for 10 years comes with some challenges. Skyrim was made with replayability in mind, giving players access to a massive number of quests, including some that can be tackled over and over again for "unlimited" gameplay. But for Howard, it's not clear how Bethesda will make another game with more content and replayability than Skyrim. "How do you make a game where you go into it, like, 'people have to play it for a decade?'" Howardsaid.
