so pc will have mods, but xbox is obvs simpler to play. Don't freak out if this is in the wrong spot, I couldn't be bothered to read the forum rules. Anyway, I want to know, given my laptop specs, if skyrim will look/run better on pc or xbox 360. I appreciate details. Linking me to "canirunit" or saying "yes you can run it" is obvious, I just want to know how well compared to 360. my cpu and graphics are the main concerns. Specs: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T9550 @ 2.66GHz 6.0 GB RAM Microsoft Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (build 7601), 64-bit ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4670 Video RAM 3.7 GB Pixel Shader version 4.1 Vertex Shader version 4.1 Couldn't run the BF3 beta worth sh*t

You have a laptop, not a PC and your gfx is one and a half generation behind. It will work and load a lot faster than an Xbox could ever catch up to, but It won't be as pretty

"A personal computer (PC) is any general-purpose computer whose size, capabilities, and original sales price make it useful for individuals" PC not desktop. Thanks for the input though.

So you come onto the forum, ask for help, and then nitpick with how somebody words it?

No, your laptop will not load the game quicker than a 360, contrary to what the other guy said. It's a laptop, enough said. The 360 will also look much better.

Didn't mean to seem like a douchebag, but a PC doesn't really mean anything, it is another one of those words that is simply a broad term for something, but a wide majority of people use it for whatever their means are at the moment. I did say laptop in my original post, but used it interchangeably. I will try to be more specific in the future. I am going to get it for xbox then, I appreciate the help from both of you. sucks that my gfx are dated.

MOST of us use PC when referring to desktops. Bad habit, since you are correct in it's definition, but I think you knew what he was talking about regardless.

I think you'll be much more pleased with it on the 360 rather than the laptop.

Are you implying that no laptop will load the game quicker? If yes, then I ask you to support your claim.
