Before the second update I found at least 2 or 3 bugs in the game. One was is whiterun, there was a man chopping wood, the logs would get stuck on his ax. Another was when I walked out of the major cities the ground turned a brown color and I floated above it. The third one was a possessed
dragon bones. They would randomly move around and stop.
Most of these bugs were fix with the second update. I still occasionally see the ground mess up but not that often.
Has anyone seen any other bugs? Did it help you in anyway?

Hi there! You know, I played Skyrim for 108 hours within the seven days after its release...played through the main quest, the Dark Brotherhood quests, Mage's quests, and countless side quests...and the only thing I could consider a "bug" was that after finishing each of the Bard's College quests, the musical instrument I'd gone and retrieved would be stuck in my inventory. That's it. I couldn't find the buggy-glitchiness that everyone else was talking about. I actually had more trouble with my 360 than the game...the system froze during the late main quest and some other random points.
Now...after the update they put out, I saw a few things. The backwards flying dragons? Yeah, I didn't find those irritating, I found them hilarious. 
And you know Louis Letrach (I think I've spelled his name either right or similar to correct)? He was the man that bought a horse from one of the rich families in Whiterun before the owner of the horse was jailed and couldn't give him the horse's papers in exchange for the money. After you steal the horse and its papers, you meet him in the woods and give him the horse (or you have the option to kill him, steal the horse from him, etc.). I chose to give him what was rightfully his, and he rode off. Now he stands in front of Whiterun's stables, halfway through the ground. Yup, just his torso is standing over the cobblestone. Not only that, but as game time goes on, the man multiplies. I now have six Louis Letrachs standing outside of Whiterun Stables, and one is only a torso. They all stand together and they ALL move their mouths if you walk up to only one of them and talk. THAT is hilarious. 
Apparently, that last glitch is also common. My husband found a photo of five Louis Letrachs standing before the stables, one as a torso, and has it as his background image. Now every time he turns on his computer, I burst out laughing. On a side note, I fully expected more glitches and bugs, since this is Bethesda, but was pleasantly surprised. This game definitely deserved game of the year, and it's easily my second all-time favorite game over any system...and I've been a gamer since the super Nintendo. Skyrim is AWESOME.
