Is Oblivion really for you?

Oblivion's game of the year edition. Is it worth the extra just for a couple of extra's for a game you've already completed? YES, it is. The shivering Isle's expansion is great as you get fantastic weapons e.g DuskFang and DawnFang, lethal armor e.g Dadric armor and at the end you become shepgarth himself, can sit in his throne and get his clothes. May not sound like much but that's barely anything as the stories about another 30 hours whichithe length of se games. You maythink 'but I'll have to start frome the beginnig again' but you can just load your other game and even if you start a new game the shivering isles is there from the beginning. So if you don't have it, you should!!Also if you put the 30 odd hours on top of the couple off hundred of hours doing all other quests you get a game which takes you weeks so you don't buy it complete it the next day then have no use fo it as it's just not interesting anymore.NO, in oblivion you have a game that even when you complete it you can start again pick a completely different race to be and gain their benefits, a completely differefnt star sign to be and get their attribute boost and a completely different class and gain their special attributes or you could make a class completely different to your previous one so you would have to learn to fight with different types of weapons and would have to work one different things. Also if your not that good at it you don't chane difficulty but rather put the difficulty bar down and unlike other games you can actually see a change in difficulty when you change it. Overall this is probably the best game i've ever played

I don't know if I agree entirely with the scores you gave out for sound, gameplay or graphics; I think you were a bit too generous there. Still, good review. It's a great game, really.

Even though i think oblivion is near perfect i have a few questions...

1how does those scores average out to a perfect 10? did your calculator go on the fritz?

2."the game rarely bores you" What about when your just roaming around? Just pointing that out...

Also you ahould never give a perfect 10 because in life nothing is perfect. There is near perfect but thats it.

good review though. I liked it.

fiercescuba5916d ago

Your review is well written, but you cannot give a 10 to a game that is considered to be very good, but not perfect.

10's happen once a generation; not for a game that many people won't play because it requires well over 150 hrs.

Non-playable characters in certain games are meme material, thanks to their foolish behavior. These are the big-budget games with the dumbest NPCs.

Bethesda makes the most consistently stupid NPCs, like really bad... yet I still can't help but love playing their games. Guilty pleasure, I guess. *sigh* 😩

Every Bethesda game and Every Halo game. This list needed to have Cyberpunk somewhere.
