yup,

yup, some great new screenshots released recently, the forests look fantastic!

11 days left ppl, so close, soon enough you will be breaking into the local shop for your daily purchase of arrows and maybe a new sword, or hunting down the haire to the throne in the weaked city with gates to oblivion spawning everywhere.

Im gonna stock up of snacks and soft drinks, clean out my room and format my hard drive ready for oblivion

. Close the curtains and turn the lights off ready for my Oblivion adventure to begin!

Where are you finding the collectors edition for £24.99, is that with free p&p as well. The cheapest ive found it was £29.99

Its looking good, just hope my computer can cope, got a x1800xt recently so that should help...

Your not allowed to do this either m8, dont make a habit of it or the dons will put you on holiday.

I have only seen it for £30 sadly, what I will be getting it at once I work out if I want it

That and Dungeon Seige 2 are fighting for my money at the moment, and I know what everyone is about to say but DS1 was one of my favourite games ever.

Remember playing it on my brand new GF3 and it was a blast, the combat system in Oblivion to me does not look that fun....

I prefer the click and let them do it method usually.

Will there be a demo...?

Doubt it the world is open to you from the start. Would require a lot of effort to make a small section self contained.

This has been asked a lot on the official forums, and it seems the answer is no.

I've got to admit thats looking quite impressive, i found the others vids while good don't show enough really, i may buy this game sooner than i thought but i will wait a bit to see what everyone thinks.

Nieldo · 15 Mar 2006 at 22:33

That new vid shows the horses, they look and sound very nice on the video, Looking forward to taking a little trot at dusk sometime

Atm the publishers are shipping the game from there warehouses to the shops on the 20th, so most stores will have it on the 21st(At least thats what they say for America), the UK date has not changed from 24th so we can only assume thats accurite.

never played anything like this before, usually onl play fps games, but i've gone ahead and order the CE. Hardly even really know what to expect...

Last Kronin · 16 Mar 2006 at 00:53

Just went and oredered my ce as well, finger crossed that it keeps me entralled casue lately im getting bored with all my games.

Nieldo · 16 Mar 2006 at 00:53

Ahh the innocence, do yourself a favour and dont find out about the games details... Just play without knowing anything and you will get the best from it.

Last Kronin · 16 Mar 2006 at 02:24

How cant i no about, its a game ive been looking forward too for awhile so have read a lot of reviews and wotched the videos.

Davey_Pitch · 16 Mar 2006 at 09:22

Just ordered the CE edition for the 360, got a whopping £2.50 off with my Gameplay loyalty discount code. Let's hope Gameplay do their usual trick and get it to me a day early

MiGSY · 16 Mar 2006 at 09:43

Really still not sure whether I'm going to get this game yet. I doubt my current rig is up to playing it on high settings at a high resolution with AA/AF:

Athlon 64 3400+ (754)
X800XT PE
1GB Crucial Ballistix PC4000

I'll give it a go. If it doesn't run well at settings I find acceptable I'll store it away until I upgrade. It'll be worth the wait...
