Well not exactly, ive seen it on console and it doesn't really come close to the pc version.
A screen shot isn't enough to show you what I mean, if you're keen and you live in Jhb I will gladly show you how awesome this runs on a 40" Bravia on maxed graphics.

Aye, you hit that one on the head. Saw it at a mate's house on PC with maxed out graphics and a decent screen. Looks amazing. Still, complaining about the console version though.
 
Last night was a bit strange...

Some time ago I killed a dragon north-west of Windhelm on my way to some quest- then last night I get a report that a dragon hangs out there, map updated, so thinking it's the one I killed, I go there and ... new dragon! \o/

Then even stranger, after killing it I ported to some random place for a quest and immediately there's another dragon. I heard its screaming, and it hit me with frost shots, but I never actually got to SEE it. When I went up to its lair I found the shout reward on the wall, but no dragon in sight. It kept showing on my compass and I just couldn't see it for the life of me, despite getting frost damaged by it now and then.

Tired of this excursion, I headed off on my merry way only to find a mammoth camp down the hill, killed the mammoth for lulz and then low and behold...my frost dragon was lying next to the camp fire. Dead. I never got a single hit on it before seeing it. Oh well, free dragon loot & soul!

Still don't see THAT much difference. A little bit of extra detail here and there.

At the moment I'm playing on a 360 Elite and a 22" LCD Monitor. That's pretty much what I see. Except for the texture bug which doesn't render some textures properly. The patch release notes says they fixed that issue. Hopefully it will be better. And when I get my FULL HD TV I can experience slightly better graphics.

But don't get me wrong, I KNOW PC has better graphics.

Yeah it's not really noticeable in a video. You have to see it live, running on someones rig.
 
I'm currently doing the Stormcloaks AND Empire quests, when do my choice of sides close of the other side? I did around 2 quests each.

Also, apart from not getting the resting bonus by sleeping, is there any other reason to remove the werewolf curse? I dont think i've slept once the entire game. Am i more susceptible to silver swords in normal form coz of the werewolf curse?

Considering its TES propably never.
 
Hmm okay, i thought that choice was the only choice in the game which stopped progression of another quest.

Come to think of it, when i did the first quest for the Stormcloaks, it came up with "Failed: Join the empire", its probable that i can still do the quests, just not join the fight.
Anyway i just think its a bit silly that i'm doing stuff for the Jarl in Solitude while being part of the Stormcloaks.

One of the Few downsides of TES.... unparalleled freedom.

Actually I think it does block you off, I got to a point where I had to make a decision whether I want to Join the Stormcloaks and it seemed like it would put me in ill favor with the imperials, so since I hadn't done their quests yet I put a hold on joining them.

You're only susceptible to silver when in Beast Form, wearing silver armour or using silver weapons does not affect you either. The only disadvantages of being a werewolf are when you in beast mode and can't sneak and loot etc.
Some NPC's will say you smell like a dog though :D
