I'm picking up my copy this afternoon (I'm in the US) and I will report back on how it plays later tonight. Don't worry, there will be no spoilers I promise 
Dons: I hope this is OK? Last time I tried talking about a game I got a couple of days earlier (due to my location) my post was deleted

Aye, should be fine. If you have a digicam a pic of the box would stop people who don't realise where you are calling you a warez monkey though
True to their word, the contruction set is already available for download
coolI'm downloading it now (only 6.4 megs) but I doubt it'll even install without all the data files from the game DVD.

I've been doing even more research into this game and it sounds simply awesome....I can’t wait to give it a bash, and I understand people’s obsession with it 
Davey, I hope it lives up to your expectations. No one seems quite as hyped as you bud!
System will handle it fine
BFG 7800GT OC, 1 gig Corsair DDR 400, SD 3700 CPU (Native 19" TFT Res 1260 x 1024)
Finally got my Audigy 2 Sound Card working perfectly too (don't ask)
Countdown videos are all great. None of the latter ones beat the one week to go vid showing the HUGE draw distance........

I hope so too, but I reckon you'll find Ultra Extreme is even more hyped for this than I am!
Davey_Pitch said:I showed my gf some of the video's and she was highly impressed, especially with the forests. She's happy watching me play games as long as there's a good story (plus she absolutely loves Prince of Persia), so she'll probably sit and watch Oblivion while I play it
Meh, I need to find a gf that likes watching me play games instead of collaring me into painting her new house. Mine was happy when I got an old monitor for my spare PC so she could use it... Even got her addicted to CS:S!
But then the graphics card died and that put an end to that.

Wahey! Should be fun...
Muah, something you console n00bs are missing out on
just to make it aware. The combat system in Oblivion is very different to morrowind as it now is based on collision. If you swing your sword and it goes through the enemy, it will count as a hit. It is not based on your efficiency with the weapon and your efficiency will determine damage
