Bethesda Softworks' upcoming space exploration title Starfield is one of the most-anticipated video games of all time.

It's fair to say that the release of Redfall, one of the most anticipated game launches of the year so far, does not represent Microsoft's finest hour.

The Elder Scrolls Part V: Skyrim came out on November 11th, 2011. It was released for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows PCs, where the Sandy Bridge Core i7-2700K was the fastest CPU you could pair with a brand-new GeForce GTX 580 or Radeon HD 6970 GPU. It wouldn't be surprising for a new PC at that time to have...
