Explore a world of fantasy with Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind from renowned publisher Bethesda Softworks on Microsoft's Xbox. Make your way through the main quest of the game while improving skills to help you in battle. Complete side quests to explore the beautiful environments of Tamriel. Arm your character with a weapon, shield, and magic spells, fighting enemies without having to wait for your turn. Save your games to the Xbox hard drive at any point and get back into the world of Morrowind whenever you have the time. The Elder Scrolls games are some of the most well-reviewed RPG's of all time, and The Elder Scrolls III won Game of the Year from multiple reviewers in 2002. This title was well-earned through innovative gameplay, a fantastic storyline, endless replayability, deep customization, and advanced graphics. Players will spend their time in this edition of The Elder Scrolls III slaying monsters, completing quests, leveling their character, and interacting with thousands of unique NPCs. Combat is resolved through a real-time battle system where sword strikes and spell casts are done in a first or third-person view. Leveling up in this version is attained by practicing a long list of skills from short blades to individual spell schools and crafting. The world of Morrowind is completely open-ended, and where your adventure takes you is entirely up to you. Work through the main story, explore dark dungeons, rescue helpless villagers, or simply hack your way through anything that moves. The designers at Bethesda have spent years crafting the Elder Scrolls universe into a rich world for role-play and adventure. The writing in the Morrowind version for the Xbox is superb, with an involved and engaging plot that will take players to the inner depths of Tamriel and the top of its most dangerous mountains. Dozens of hours of gameplay will keep gamers inside the homeland of the Dunmer, and that's just the main storyline. One of the especially interesting features of this game is the completely open design and potential for multiple playthroughs. Characters in this game are not given one set “class,” but are instead given a choice of skills to select as primary and secondary abilities. These abilities govern how a character progresses, and even skills not chosen can be advanced at any time just by using them. Interested in role-playing a heroic knight crusading against evil and saving fair maidens? You can do that. Maybe a dashing and crafty swashbuckler supplementing her skills with a dagger using powerful offensive magic is more your style; you can do that. Perhaps an entirely different route fits your play style, like a court jester who uses guile, a silver tongue, and supernatural dexterity to talk, roll, and laugh his way to victory. You can do that, too. There is so much variety in Morrowind’s advancement paths that it's almost impossible to do it all in the first go. There are good reasons why The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind edition is often touted as an essential game in any RPG fan's gaming library, and the game was designed from the ground up to be optimized for the Xbox. If you have never had the opportunity to explore the world of Morrowind or are considering another visit to the lands of the Dunmer, there has never been a better time to dive in.

I have played Morrowind for a long time and I still do. Those who love being able to do whatever they wish, this is the right game for it. No need to follow the main quest, no hurry to rush to the finish line. Morrowind allows you to take your time and do what suits you. For example, become a thief and pickpocket your way into riches and glory, or become a fighter and fight for the imperial cult and become famous and well known throughout Morrowind. But enough of the sweet talk. For those of you who have Morrowind, you must know that you can do whatever you wish or go wherever you please. But what you may not know is that you create your world. People interact differently with you by the way you stand in the world, this is why I love this game so much. Every game does have their downsides though. Morrowind did lack in getting to places quicker, and the fighting style is a little hard at first. The worst thing about Morrowind in my opinion is that the game did not move as quickly as I would have liked it to. Running from place to place takes a long time, and you spent a lot of your game play on just that. But don't get me wrong, it is not like you have nothing to do while running. You can explore mines, or kill roaming creatures. It is up to you. If you have beaten the game, you may notice that some things are a bit different, the most noticeable one is that people treat you differently. They respect you and are grateful for the things you have done. Though it may be a frustrating trip to beat the game, because in order to do that you must be good at fighting. This makes it hard for thieves who spent most of their time sneaking around places stealing things (which is why I cheated to get to the end :).). The mods for this game are great as well, find some good mods for this game and it will add loads of more hours to your game play. I personally enjoy the castles. If your thinking about buying Oblivion (the next elder scrolls game) I would recommend buying it as soon as possible, it fixed all the problems Morrowind had, and adds a great game. I give Morrowind a 9-10.Read full review
Was worth the wait, never played it until that point. The story kept me engaged from beginning to end. I had only played oblivion and skyrim up til that point so it was nice to play the older games, even if it was just for lore purposes.
For a game made in 2002 it is great. If you rely heavily on graphics to enjoy a game, maybe it isn't for you because it is old. If you know what you are getting, the game is one of the best ever made. Heavy RPG elements, great story and even better soundtrack. The combat is misunderstood by a lot of people but if you look into how it works, you'll know how to handle yourself in a fight. Know that it's not perfect, but if you are looking for that Elder Scrolls magic, look no further.
I loved the original game I started playing on my original xbox. it was my first game completely open ended, and I have been a faithful fan since. I had other 2 already but wanted morrowind.
wonderful !!!!!!
Another example of how Xbox used to have quality exclusives and at the time there was no other console game like it. Morrowind laid the groundwork for what was to come like Oblivion and Skyrim. While the graphics may not be up to today's standards they are still good and this should be on your bucket list if you are a fan of open world RPG's.
