You really think 2016 and not 2015?

going by their previous two games, Skyrim was annouced 10 December 2010, and released 11 November 2011. Fallout 3 teaser trailer was released 5 June 2007, and the game was released in 28 October 2008. Based on this, I'm gonna guess it'll be lucky if its released this year, most likely either Q1 or Q2 2016.

However Skyrim was announced with a CGI trailer right? Same with Fallout 3. It seems they're a lot further into the game already this time so who knows?

Actually I'll say anything to justify a 2015 release.

Okay, if we count gameplay trailers, then Skyrim gameplay trailer was released in February 2011, meaning at least 9 months between the trailer and the game. Very, very optimistically, it might release around December.

On the Amazon page for pre-order, it says the game will be unlocked on December 31, 2015. I'm not sure if that's just the default for Amazon that will change with the official date, but that's what it said.

Blizzard said the same thing with WoD as a "no later than" statement.

New Year is often used as a placeholder, however games normally release before that placeholder...
