Any more news on Oblivion?

xander_uk2 · 12 Jan 2006 at 13:27

Just realised i haven't really been keeping up with the latest Elder Scrolls game.
Last i heard was a March release date (although this wasn't confirmed) and as I cant access any gaming sites from work I was wondering if any of you fine people could bring me up to speed

Further optimisations with regard to combat were an obvious area that needed work..

Yep.

Apparently its finished for PC. Now they are just making the xbox360 version so both can be released at the same time. How does that make you feel?

How do you know that Gord? And why haven't they released a demo?!!

Presumably that means they are getting a fistful of dollars from M$, allowing them to create a better game. Horaay!

This game is my most wanted game this year, havnt played any other elder scrolls but this looks really intense!

Hostile_18 · 5 Feb 2006 at 12:58

This is by far my most anticipated game.

I really hope this is the game to end all games, at least this year!

100's of hours of game, pay for official downloads and a few expansion packs no doubt! I can't wait!

WHAT!!! · 5 Feb 2006 at 13:00

This game looks damn impressive from what i've seen with video's.

Which version would you guys be buying 360 or pc ?

My self I think i'll go for the 360 verson although im sure the PC may have its advantages over the 360 with keyboard & mouse functionality.

Decisions Decisions :confused:

Hostile_18 · 5 Feb 2006 at 13:01

PC - Mouse & Keyboard, Player Mods but more importantly Official Content and Expansions.

Bernard · 5 Feb 2006 at 13:04

Which will come through LIVE also, so that nothing. I'll be getting the 360 version, less hassle.

I would have thought the benefit of the PC version would be the unofficial mods that will be released.

Hostile_18 · 5 Feb 2006 at 13:09

Well I don't think theres to much between the versions themselves.

To match the PC version though you'd have to have a HD telly which is another rather big setup cost!

bakes0310 · 5 Feb 2006 at 13:37

im definetly getting this game for the pc and ill get the collectors edition ill preorder it later.
Ive looked on the official site and cant find anything about the races or classes you can be any ideas.

Hostile_18 · 5 Feb 2006 at 13:44

I'm not sure on the races, i'm boring though I like playing as A Human.

I wish the collectors edition was available to pre-order in the UK, strange no where is taking orders for it yet.

I want to see if I can get a free coke from the machine with my collectors coin lol.

Lagmeister · 5 Feb 2006 at 17:05

I would go for the PC edition, I dont really care about HD and the like, what I care about is the modding tools that come with the game, anything can and most likely will be added to this game, and the 360 will miss out for a lot of it.
