It's gorgeous and it's gonna boast I think 2000 hours of play to complete everything.

It's gorgeous and it's gonna boast I think 2000 hours of play to complete everything.
Easily the best RPG ever IMO.

I loved Morrowind. Unforunately WoW and some other games have taken up my time recently so I haven't played Morrowind in quite some time.

These are some of the best graphics I've ever seen from a video game.

I'll be getting it for 360 the day it comes out

[fromwithin]

3 GHZ? what the hell? geez, i have a 2.8 with hyper threading i wonder if that would suffice.

I might pick it up for the 360.

Indeed it was.

[kirbs84]

Does anyone know if Blockbuster does the thing where you rent something and then decide you want to keep it, you can just pay off the rest of the amount you owe? I know they do it for movies, but I don't know about games. I've never been big into games like this, but I might have to give it a try.


I know I could have worded that better...sorry

[Mercy Medical]

Oblivion was released yesterday 3/21/06.

I highly suggested you all go out and buy it.

[a speedo model]

my brother got it monday night. he's quite happy with it. not my thing, though.

[Mercy Medical]

I'm buying it today after work. SOOO excited. I may be up late tonight. :D

I'm presented with a problem now, however. I must choose between Oblivion and WoW on a daily basis.

[TJ Wells]

could you give me the specs of your computer? i really want to start playing computer games, but i dont think my computer is even close to handling anything, considering it slows down emulators when i plug in my ipod

[Mercy Medical]

Uhhh, I always forget my specific specs since I just got a new PC.

I run a AMD Sempron 2.0GHz processor
1 GB RAM
GeForce 6600 256MB videocard
120GB harddrive
20GB harddrive

I think that's the major stuff.

[Brownpants06]

I'm still debating whether to get this for 360 or not, has anyone actually played it? Review sites are taking their sweet time. First person rpg...mmmmm skeptical.

You're skeptical about this game?

Did you play Morrowind?

[DroppedUrPocket]

I know two people who have it and love it. It's apparently very good, but it's not everyone's thing though. It's not mine, and I know that. Haha.

[Mercy Medical]

If you haven't played any of the Elder Scrolls series games they basically go like this. They are a RPG with a huge amount of gameplay time. You can either stick with the quests and follow that, or you can go off on your own to do your own thing. But there are literally thousands of hours of gameplay in this game and it's extremely open ended. PLUS this game has the best graphics of any game I've seen up to this point.

[believethehyph]

Should I get Burnout or this for the 360?

[Mercy Medical]

Should I get Burnout or this for the 360?
This...but I say that not even knowing what Burnout is.

[DroppedUrPocket]

Should I get Burnout or this for the 360?
Again, it depends on what you like. Burnout is extremely good, though.

[the_champ_is_here]

How does it run on your system Punk_Walker

[believethehyph]

Again, it depends on what you like. Burnout is extremely good, though.
Both games are highly appealing, I hear Burnout is a short game though , can any one enlighten me on that? I also hear its fucking carnage.

[Brownpants06]

You're skeptical about this game?

Did you play Morrowind?

No - thats the thing. I played fable on a friends xbox and star wars kotor for pc, but other than that no rpgs for the xbox. I guess ill just rent it before i decide.


But by the way, Burnout as far as i know is the exact same game as for ps2 with better graphics. It's a really good game, but I rented it and almost beat it in a weekend. I played the demo for x360 and hated the controlls compared to ps2, so unless you are used to using triggers for accel/brake or can change the controlls, and haven't played ps2/xbox version, it's pretty good.

[Mercy Medical]

I don't know, I haven't gotten it yet. I meet the minimum requirements, so we shall see.

[DroppedUrPocket]

If you're a perfectionist, it's definitely not short. There's like 10 classes and x amount of stars in each class (5 stars per event, at least 7 events per class, a bunch of different types of events). There's signature takedowns for each map (a special way to make your opponents crash) and there's 8 or so different high score kinda things for each map as well. There's 36 accheivements (about 1000 points in total if you care about that sorta thing) and the online mode (don't know if you got that set up yet or not) is really really good and addictive.

[Mercy Medical]

Oh hell yes! Work is over, so that means....OBLIVION!!

[DroppedUrPocket]

Oblivion is supposed to be open-ended like Fable and KotOR, but I'm not sure how the gameplay goes.

There's minor additions to the game. Like 10 crash junctions, the acchievements, and the online play is amazing and better compared to last gen. They also reworked every sound in the game and tweaked the graphics. Like I said, if you're a perfectionist, this game wouldn't take a weekend to beat. I bought the previous gen version, never finished it, and I am very happy with the new version.

[DroppedUrPocket]

Haha godspeed!

Im definately not a perfectionist haha.

[Scott Irvine]

According to some early reviews, they dropped the ball a little bit on the visuals. Apparently, the shubbery, etc appear in the PlanetSide fashion (invisible far away only to appear right in front of you).

[DroppedUrPocket]

Im definately not a perfectionist haha.
Haha. I think it's worth the money, I was just counter-arguing the short accusation.

[Mercy Medical]

Oh yes, it is in my grasp now...

[DroppedUrPocket]

Oh yes, it is in my grasp now...
Haha. I hope you make it through the 9 hour install time. :D

[Brownpants06]

Haha. I hope you make it through the 9 hour install time. :D


haha thats why i love consoles.

[Mercy Medical]

Haha. I hope you make it through the 9 hour install time. :D
It's actually not taking that long. I'm just happy my DVD player is working because I was expecting it not to and was expecting to spend another $40 on a new one.

[believethehyph]

Haha. I think it's worth the money, I was just counter-arguing the short accusation.
Yeah, I think I will get Burnout, its one of those pure fun games.

[Mercy Medical]

Haha. I hope you make it through the 9 hour install time. :D
Psh, 9 hour install time my ass. It's done.

[Scott Irvine]

Psh, 9 hour install time my ass. It's done.

You're making me start to itch. I NEED it!

[DroppedUrPocket]

Psh, 9 hour install time my ass. It's done.
Haha. Be glad your shit is up to date. :)

[DaveFeelsRight]

God i'm addicted to this game.


hooray for xbox 360!

whats the combat system like?

[DaveFeelsRight]

whats the combat system like?Like Fable's but more advanced, you can switch from 3rd to 1st person during combat as well.

[Mercy Medical]

The only thing I'm not liking about the game is the user interface. I'm used to playing World of Warcraft and even Morrowind's was a bit less complicated then this. Well, it's not that it's complicated, it just takes too long to get to what you need.

Other then that, I'm fully satisfied. It's ridiculous. You can pick things up and throw them. You can grab onto stuff that's hanging and move it around. You can even pick up bodies and move them. You can hit jugs and stuff on tables and they move. You can even hit bodies after they've already been killed and they move. It's just crazy the amount of things you can do in this game. It's fuckin' INSANE!

I have a question, rather your opinion.

Should I spend 300 bucks to upgrade my graphics card to a NVIDIA 7800 (amazing) and then buy the game or buy the game right now and play it on my Radeon 9800?

Ummm, I'm running it on a GeForce 6600 (I don't know how that compares to a Radeon 9800) and everything is looking fine and dandy for me.

Depends which type of 9800 you have, the pro and ultra whatever models can be pretty good. I would stick with ATI though for video cards. If you can afford it, go for the X1600 or X1700s.

[Mercy Medical]

Hmmm, I was slightly skeptical about Oblivion after I got it last night especially since I've been playing WoW and being extremely addicted to that, but I feel the Oblivion addiction setting in the more and more I play it (granted I've had it for one day). I'm still not liking the user interface, but I suppose I can get over that.

Also, I noticed what someone was saying earlier about issues with the graphics. It seems when you're out of cities the grass disappears when it's far away and reappears when it gets closer.

[SLADE775]

Sorry Kara.....but this game is weak, I can't stand these (PC) like RPG's.

They're crippled by stale gameplay and complicated menu's.

Lame.

Microsoft needs to stop what they're doing and get to work on Ninja Gaiden 360.

Yea, but you're not a fan of RPG's so how can you even say that this is weak when it's completely not your style of game?

There are endless amounts of hours of gameplay in Oblivion. The graphics are more amazing then anything I've ever seen before and the world it's so insanely interactive. It's more realistic then any RPG I've played prior to this and I love it for that. I mean, when you die or you kill someone your body just doesn't fall to the ground like a log it actually moves like a real body would.

The storyline for all the Elder Scrolls series is extremely in depth. It takes some patience to play the Elder Scrolls series and those with ADD definately wouldn't enjoy it (not saying that's what you have), but it's more of a satisfaction that comes over a long period of time then just a quick fix.

Have you even played Oblivion yet Slade? If not how can you be basing such judgement on it?

[SLADE775]

I'm not a fan of RPG'S!!!!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?

WHAT??????????!!!!!!!!!??????!!!!!!

Are you crazy!!!!?!?!?!?!!!!!

I love RPG's!!!!!!

In fact, my top 10 favorite games ever would all be RPG's.

I have almost 125 hours on Dragon Quest 8 (a real RPG).

And yes I played it last night at a Gamestop.

DQ8 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ESO

C'mon now, I know my shit when it comes to games.

C'mon now, I know my shit when it comes to games.Okay, let me rephrase that then. You seem to be only a fan of more cartoonlike (I don't know if this is really the right word) RPGs from what I've read. And you're not going to get a good judge of the game (especially if you've never played any of the Elder Scrolls series prior) if you play it for a little bit at Gamestop. I will agree with you that the user interface for this game sucks. I don't like it at all. I wish they would take the user interface from Morrowind and put it in this game, but whatever, I can deal with it.

Right now I'm having a difficult time determining what game I want to invest more time in...World of Warcraft or Oblivion. Both games are RPGS (WoW being an MMO of course) and both are going to take a hearty investment of time. I've already invested a lot of time into WoW so since I got Oblivion last night so it's hard to stray away. WoW has that more cartoonish feel to it then Oblivion. To me Oblivion feels much more realistic then any game I've ever played prior. WoW seems to have a quicker result or quests and such (although even those take a long time) then Oblivion will. I don't know, part of me feels like if I'm in the mood for some quicker gaming action when I'm not going to get uber indepth I'll choose WoW, if I want something a big deeper I'll choose Oblivion. I'm not really sure how to describe it because I know that WoW isn't a quick fix type of game, but it feels more that way to me then Oblivion.

i have the torrent downloading... currently at 25%, grrr

Haha, go buy that shit!

Crazy thing with Oblivion, it doesn't require a CD key. If I remember correctly Morrowind didn't either. I don't know why they do it like that.

[SLADE775]

Now....I've never gotten into wow but I have played it with a friend and I could see how that game could be great.

I'm a fan of all kinds of RPG's, I liked the more realistic looking Final fantasy games and I also like tactical RPG's.

You're right that I can't really judge a game based on a quick 10 minute playing session an Gamestop but I think Microsoft needs to remember the the 360 IS NOT A PC!

[Boring Pop Song]

yeah i love this game. it just gives you a real feeling of being on an adventure. and it's so open ended. great game

Well Elder Scrolls was intially a PC game and then Morrowind was on Xbox. I guess you're right in the fact that it is a more PC type RPG, but then again you are a console boy and I am a PC girl so we can see where our loyalities lie.

You have to admit though, the graphics are fuckin' insane and so are the capabilities to interact with just about everything in the world.

i would buy it but it's 50 bucks, and considering im not too into rpg's its not worth spending, i only want to play this game to experience the beautiful environment and npc's and if i happen to get caught up in the rpg experience then so be it. lol

[Loch_Doun]

Bethedsa (sp?) developed the game. MS had nothing to do with it but put it out. Same thing with Ninja Gaiden, they have nothing to do with it. Team Ninja developes Ninja Gaiden along with DOA.

So executives from MS have a huge hand in the entire development process.

Team Ninja is a developement circle of Tecmo...they are a completely different entity from MS. See the example below.

With Oblivion, MS hired 2K games to publish for them, thus trusts them with the projects they are going to put out. 2K hired Bethedsa Studios to develope the game. MS has no hand in the type of games 2K decides to publish on the 360 or Windows, let alone the games themselves. Why do you think there is no Microsoft logo on Oblivion or Ninja Gaiden other than the Xbox/360/Xbox Live logo?

Team ninja only makes games for MS now.

Besides, the point is that NG is the best game to ever come out on a microsoft system.

They need to get the sequel out soon.

I'd say wow, because you can get a return on your time investment. Haha, I sold my account last year for a buttload. To be fair though, you have to know people to get good gear and such. Just getting level 60 isn't going to get you money anymore. You also need to be able to do shit for 4-8 hours non-stop, heh. But then again, I haven't played oblivion.

Haha, yea. I'm not that super crazy about playing WoW though. I was talking to someone from my old guild about what I should do when I reach 60 because I don't have 8 hours to kill in an instance during the week or even the weekend. He was saying that I should just go on raids and up my rankings and I think that's what I'll do.

I think this weekend will be devoted to Oblivion however. Funniest thing is, my friend who's obsessed with WoW and got me into it to begin with hasn't played it for like 5 days and has been playing Oblivion instead. Haha

[Andy]

Eh, graphic problems.

Everything's smooth up until after the introvideo where the king talks about dying. "In-game" everything is white. I recently updated my driver aswell. Any ideas?

Ummm, I have no idea. It takes a beast of a computer to run this game and run it well, so...

Well when I first got it I was playing it like 3-5 hours a day for maybe a week. Then it switched to 1-2, then 1-10 hours a week. The main story line really isnt that long. I think i'm about 50 hours played.

Never mind about that, I found that out.
I just couldn't find the town in which the Emperor's heir resides.
Even after following the signs and road.

Make sure you get in on the massive amount of awesome side quests and stuff that you can do in the game. Also if you get tired of the main quest you should get Shivering Isles, that expansion is amazing (graphically and storyline wise)
