11. Skyrim Actually Got Released On Alexa

One of the most amusing moments from E3 this year was the comedic faux-advertisement for Skyrim: Very Special Edition during Bethesda's conference.

The skit, starring Keegan-Michael Key as a man using his Amazon Alexa device to verbally "play" Skyrim, playfully mocked Bethesda's apparent desire to release the mammoth RPG on every device imaginable, but guess what? It's actually real.

That's right. Following their conference, Bethesda actually released the "game" for free on Amazon's digital store. Sure, it's just a basic spoken word adventure game, but it's reviewing incredibly well with those who've bothered to try it.
