Well, in this case a GREAT thing has come.Like another reviewer, I also just recently purchased my 360 (just yesterday!), though I'd had Oblivion on order for months. I suffered a little buyer's remorse seeing as the $400 for the system really wasn't budgeted at the time I dropped it, but the second I started playing this game, it all seemed to come together. I'd heard alot about some of the 360's launch titles bombing, and how everyone was still waiting for the "next gen-ness" of this next gen console. So, as a die-hard "Morrowind" fan, my biggest fear was that the hype for this title would match it against standards it couldn't meet. Bethesda has stepped up to the plate and knocked the ball right out of its skin! Visually, this game is amazing. The grass, the flowers, the trees, the statues, the rocks, the ruins, it's all breath-taking; there's truly no point in trying to describe the visuals here- words...

It was to be one of the 360's launch day crown jewels. Instead the game was delayed by Bethesda Software as they deemed it needed abit more polishing and work. There were quite abit of disappointed gamers who'd been waiting for almost 4 years for this nextgen sequel to the best-selling and quite popular The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and its expansion packs. Now, after 4 months of delays, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has been released to the gaming public and the many delays was well worth the wait. Oblivion has turned out to be an excellent, fun and engaging roleplaying game that improves on what made Morrowind such as success and fixing the previous game's inherent flaws.First off, Oblivion could be enjoyed by both Elder Scroll veteran gamers and new players to the series. Like the three previous games in the...

Yes, it's that good. It signals the return of single player games, a refreshing change to MMO's like Everquest or World of Warcraft.The difference? Stories. In an MMO you are one amongst thousands of others, scrounging for levels and rare items. In Oblivion, you are the center of the universe. There's a main story, but you can choose to leave it alone if you want. There's a ridiculous amount of quests available, and caves and dungeons to explore. Maybe you just want to go thieving at night. Maybe you just want to wander around and take in the scenery. It never feels dull because you're in control, and there's a ridiculous amount of things to do. The gameplay is gorgeous, and there's inexpensive add-ons that will be offered to even further expand gameplay...as if you really needed that. I've been playing since the day it was released, and still feel like I've barely... Read more |
