So, in addition to the number of "Game of the Year" accolades it's been getting, practically everyone on the TF2 server I usually head to has been telling me I need to go get Skyrim.

This is probably good advice given Bethesda is good at what they do. But Skyrim is $60. And I have neither an Xbox or PS3 since until now Mass Effect is the only thing on either that really interested me that I couldn't get elsewhere, and I use a Mac, as some of you may recall from the months of fighting different emulators to get Mass Effect 2 working.

Well, I googled "Skyrim Mac", and it turns out the same place that I got the game-specific emulator for Mass Effect also has one for Skyrim. And unlike Mass Effect where it was designed for a completely different model Mac with entirely different chipsets, the video I found testing this one appears to be running on either the previous or the lower-end model of what I'm using. I meet all the specifications, too.

Should I drop the $60 for Skyrim and hope it works, or wait until it drops in price?
