 Morrowind Game of the year February 14, 2010

Hi- This is my favorite pc game so far. The Game of the year edition runs very smoothly compared to the older version and with the "mods" that are now available it becomes a much more modern game. I recommend it highly.
Still the Best January 25, 2010
Avalanche Knuckles (Hartford, CT)
Oblivion may be technically superior, but Morrowind is still the best PC RPG that I have ever played. I have gone back through this game several times since its original release, and each time through is just as fun as the last. Like Oblivion, it is extremely open-ended, allowing you to go nearly anywhere in the game world from the very beginning. If you like exploring, you will love this game. The story will take you from town to town, through windy deserts, green islands, floating cities, volcanoes, and more. This is a game that will keep you coming back just to visit the world, and each time through you will find something that you missed last time. To anyone that enjoys open-ended exploration based RPGs, it doesn't get any better than this.
The Aging King of RPGs January 7, 2010
Garrett B. Marker (New England)
This is one of the best video games of all time, no doubt about it--but it is getting old and the complex systems of the game are tiresome compared to modern games. Yet it will always remain a shining landmark due to its immense size and multitude of unique items, buildings, people and stories that could only be created by imaginative human designers.
 From a modern rookie's perspective December 31, 2009

First of all I want to say that the first 4-5 star reviews you read, of the ones voted most helpful, are all well written and true. But they were written in 2004 by serious gamers. I am a novice gamer, writing at the end of 2009, after playing World of Warcraft for six months straight until I had to stop in order to keep my friends and girlfriend. Simply put, by today's standards, Elder Scrolls III is a sleeper.
Why did I buy it in 2009? I wanted something that didn't require mass multi-player online action and it's subscription - something that I could pay a small price for up front one time only, and take my time getting into it. The problem is, after months in WoW, I just couldn't make this step backward.
It just seems boring and pointless. The graphics are great, but the world you are admittedly allowed to wander all over, just seems to be lifeless. It doesn't seem fair to judge yesterday's game by today's standards, but my whole point is to hopefully enlighten others like myself - rookie gamers looking for something to get wrapped up in their spare time - that after you play modern games, it is very difficult to go back, and I can't, so I'm screwed.
I will say that for 2003 this game is quite masterful, just not much fun after I foolishly chose WoW as my first ever PC RPG.
 A sometimes overwhelming experience November 30, 2009
S. Sheets
I had been thinking about a return to Morrowind for quite some time (after having beaten the first release for the XBOX), and at the current prices it was too hard to resist.
The game is absolutely sprawling and about as non-linear as RPGs get; you could start the game and head straight to the lair of the main antagonist, if you were so inclined, but you probably wouldn't last long in the fight. In fact, this freedom and "open-endedness" can be overwhelming at times. To some players it may feel nebulous, or lacking in cohesive gameplay.
The true strength of the game now, as it nears being a decade old, is the online community. Bethesda has always supported the community and encouraged modding. If you look around (or just google), there is a treasure trove of player-made and community-supported additions to the game.
