What's great about it: Graphics, sounds, music and the combat system. What's not so great: It's too short and too easy.
"TES IV : Oblivion is deffently one the best RPG's I've ever played. The only drawback is that it's too short and fairly easy to compleat. Still It's a great game and the graphics are outstanding and anyone whoes plays RPG's should buy this game."

What's great about it: story, action, adventure, hard to put down What's not so great: expect to get wrapped up in the world of Oblivion
"Amazing game. Not only game of the year, but definitely one of the top titles to hit the xbox 360. A must for any RPG fan. Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion comes through with its massive world, awesome gameplay, and fun story. Whether you are playing the main storyline or off doing the guild missions, you'll have a blast. Design you character's abilities to how you like them, and conquer the world. Hundreds of dungeons, thousands of baddies, hours and hours of fun. A must buy for the system, 10 out of 10!"

What's great about it: fun, long, hard, and good game play What's not so great: once you beat the 4 guilds, Arena, and Main Quest you get bored of it
"This is a great game for all those people who love to customize your player in almost anyway possible. This game could take you anywhere from a month of non-stop play to 3 or more of a couple hours a day. Overall fun interactive game, and P.S. get the one with the shivering isles because i didnt and now i cant keep going."

My Favorite Xbox 360 Game
07/28/2008
By boomkat
What's great about it: Beautiful Graphics, Immersive and engaging storyline, fluid combat system What's not so great: Addicting, repetitive soundtrack
"This is by far my favorite game I have for the Xbox 360. I bought this game last summer and was addicted from the moment I started playing. This was the first real RPG I've every played, and I really got sucked in. I've created three or four characters, and each of them have led to a unique game experience. The add-ons are amazing as well, as they include new creatures and characters and even some new areas. I love the freedom to do whatever you want to as well. I picked the game back up this summer, and have played it just as much as I did last summer. In my new adventures, I've discovered much more about the game, completing quests and finding places I never knew about before. It's really made me wonder if it's even possible to do every single quest in the game. I will not be taking this game to the trade-in store like I usually do with most of my games. This game is so fun, I even got my girlfriend to play with me. That really says a lot."

A great game for any style of gamer
07/16/2008
By Kaffei
What's great about it: You could literally play forever What's not so great: Consoles can't get mods
"Oblivion on the 360 would be a wise decision for two reasons. 1) You get to sit at on a comfortable couch as you play 2) You might want the achievement points
The downside is that after you beat the story and the quests there's not much else to do. You won't be able to add user-created mods to expand your game. (Mods are why Oblivion changed from 'T' to 'M')
But Oblivion itself is a great open-ended RPG. It revolutionized the hit and miss system. Unlike past RPG's with Oblivion you must actually strike your enemy with your weapon or you will miss. The storyline I thought was a little weak compared to Morrowind and it didn't really affect me in any way as I was playing through it. I've had the game for two years and I still enjoy playing it though. There are tons of quests to do and even after you've done those you can go treasure hunting in Oblivion's many dungeons."

07/12/2008
By Cutullyfrom New York
What's great about it: Immense world, many of quests,fully customizeable characters,many items What's not so great: Addicting, leveling system
"This game still keeps my interest and after a year and a half i am still doing new quests. The expansions this comes with would normally cost about $30 more and they add plenty of new actionand items. I am not a huge rpg fan but i still love this game. Even if you don't care about the brilliantly done storyline you can have just as much fun messing around. You can literally be anything you want and there are plenty of side-quests that help with that. This is a must have game for any 360, ps3, or pc owner."

What's great about it: EVERYTHING What's not so great: no dual weilding weapons
"this game is so good, that i bought a 360 just to play it. some of the glitches in the game make it better. for instance: the arrow trick. this game is worth every penny. there are so many different options, every time you start a new game, it feels like you are playing a brand new game."

What's great about it: There are to many to list What's not so great: Horses steering.
"This game is one of the best ive bought in a long time. If your a big gamer you really want to buy this game. The only problem i have found with it was that the horses steering was a bit weird. Also the horses are priced a little too high. What i like about the game is that it has a great story line and many side quests. The Arena is a brilliant idea. If you keep dieing you can lower the difficulty through the options menue if you press the start button on your controler. In conclusion this game is recomended to any gamer that likes a challenge or if you just want to smash stuff, it will suit your gameing needs for a long time."

What's great about it: Wonderful game What's not so great: none
"I've played every game in the Elder Scrolls series, and they just keep getting better. They've done a great job with continuing to make a huge game world, but improving your ability to move around within it. There is fast travel if you want it, or you can walk through the wilderness. The number of side quests is simply staggering, and has a good deal of variety. There are single-shot quests, as well as plot lines that almost rival the main plot line for length, for example the Mage's and Fighter's guild quest lines. Some of the side quests are simply hilarious, especially the Daedric Shrine quest for Sheogorath. The GOTY edition includes the two largest expansions: The Shivering Isles and Knights of the Nine. Shivering Isles is an extraordinay quest line, again rivaling the main quest line for length and complexity."

By Pittsfrom Florida
What's great about it: Great replayability. Huge word to explore. Very fun. What's not so great: A few bugs.
"Oblivion is one of the best games I've played for a long time. I bought it because I saw my friend playing it and i was not dissapointed. There is so much to do in the game and so many places to go. There is a great replayability on oblivion because there is no way you could see everything the game has to offer in one game file. A definite must play for those who love RPGs."

Best Electronic RPG Ever!
04/21/2008
By ProGamer7
What's great about it: Huge Wide Open Format, Improved Interface, Awesome Customization, Immensely Beautiful! What's not so great: Monster AI a bit repetitive, Can't Fly/Levitate, Not as deep as Morrowind
"The Elder Scrolls Series are quite simply the Best Electronic first person RPG games ever! As with it's Predecessor (Morrowind), Oblivion is a huge and vast wide open non-linear format, with awesome customization and immensely beautiful environments! While the monster AI a bit repetitive, and a few things that were in Morrowind aren't available here, i.e., you can't fly/levitate, as well as not being quite as deep as Morrowind; it does have a much improved interface. Bottomline: Once you get into this world, you'll never want to leave - Just Buy It!"
