This can't be real right? At this point I honestly can't tell any more. What the fuck is going on? Embargoes have always been a thing. If they had anything to hide they would make the embargo for the day after not the day before. As for the embargo for the embargo; yeah it's stupid but hardly worth the uproar it has seemed to cause with some people. Literally no one outside the people that frequent this forum will even know about it. Most people don't even know what review embargoes are.
If the PC version performed stably and had no bugs, I would have no problems believing that... problem is, we all know how buggy even the lead platform version of Skyrim was.
I'm not sure you understood what this embargo is about. It's not embargo that doesn't allow you to post the review, it's the embargo that doesn't allow you to tell when you will release the review itself (so until today, you could not say 'i will post review of the game on [xxx].
That's bullshit and will definitely make we wait for GOTY edition with all the dlc.

I'm. It sure if it was the lead console, but I had no issues playing Skyrim on the 360. There were a few glitches and shit you can expect with any open world game that size, but nothing even close to game breaking. In my experience with it, at least. Same with Fallout 3.
This is just the one in charge (publishers) telling their subordinates (enthusiast press) how to do their job and to align schedules so everyone's goal (the successful execution of the PR department's marketing plan) goes off without a hitch.
