Pros: addictive, fantastic graphics, good dialog Cons: buggy, loading times, needs more voice actors
Since the W

Pros: Massive gameworld with hundreds of quests Cons: Character faces cause nightmares, repetitive voiceovers
This new generation of gaming really hasn't been much different from the last; none of the Xbox 360 launch titles were the sort of game that couldn't be done on the Xbox or PS2, aside from the improved high-definition graphics and presentation. Many ...

by Mike_Bracken - Top 50, Apr 11 '06
Pros: Great graphics, solid story, tons of things to do. Cons: The combat is still a little generic.
Writing this review proved to be a great deal harder than I'd imagined. I think there are two reasons for this: First, Oblivion is a huge and multifaceted game. There's a lot of ground to cover and it's easy to concentrate on the few negatives while ...

Pros: Graphics, Sound, game is looooooooong! Cons: Main story, few glitches here and there, might be to long for some.
Bathseda's Elder Scrolls series has always had a sort of love hate relationship with gamers in general. Some love the series for their massive open ended structure and absorbing narrative, while others end up hopelessly lost and pine for a game ...

Pros: huge, fun, lush environments Cons: animations, crime ain't easy, other annoying things
Let me start off by saying that I hated Morrowind (Elder Scrolls 3). Not only was the story incredibly boring/nonexistent at first, but the combat was just miserable. Since it was dictated by D&D dice rolls, a newly created player would miss almost all ...

Pros: Flawless graphics, Huge world full of adventure, endless gameplay, Game of the Year! Cons: You could play this game forever, framerate problems, occasional glitch, loading
This game is Oblivion. Oblivion is the type of game that many gamers get the rare opportunity of finding. It's worth 60 dollars on the store shelf but for many this game will be priceless. 99 percent of the games out there have a definitive ending while ...

Pros: Endless hours of fun, huge game, beautiful graphics Cons: Should be classified as legally addicting
I dont normally endorse addictions especially with video game but with Oblivion I would be more than willing to make an exception. To be honest I never expected a video game to addict me so much, I dont have a very addictive personality, but ...

Pros: just about everything, 200hrs gameplay Cons: Graphical popup
An In-depth review on one of the best selling and one of the most critically acclaimed titles on the xbox360. While this game is a massive undertaking with a gigantic beautifully detailed world to explore and countless missions to figure out is it worth ...

Pros: Literally hundreds and hundreds of hours of gameplay. Cons: A very significant portion of that time will be spent watching loading screens.
It is important that I preface my review with the foundation of my argument. Very simply, the game is huge, it is beautiful, it is infinitely replayable, but even the X-Box 360 lacks the power needed for this game. More than once has my game frozen ...

Pros: 100 + hours of gameplay, next-gen. graphics, thoroughly explained tutorials, huge playable world. Cons: Loading times, occasional lock up of system.
Let me start by saying Oblivion has set the standard for future RPG's (Role-Playing Games). No doubt by the rating I have given for this game, you can see that I think it's awesome. It's more than that... In a game where Pro's exceedingly weigh out ...

Pros: - In-depth story-lines
- Great Customization options
- Good sound and Graphics- Cons: - Clunky Controls
- Bad Fighting System-
The title says it all, this game is the most extensive game you will EVER play. With at least 250 hours of gameplay, 1,000 NPCs, 9 cities, and countless numbers of ruins, caves, and creatures, you might never stop playing Oblivion. Graphics- 9/10. ...

Pros: Immersive role-playing, tremendous graphics and sound. Cons: Combat controls can be a bit 'off' at times, facial models not always good.
This is hardly a new game, but I did not get it until fairly recently, so I thought I would go ahead and share my thoughts on it still. Many people, including myself, tend to have a somewhat preconceived notion of what an RPG (role-playing game) is, ...

Pros: HUGE game, graphics, engaging plot, open-ended Cons: massive world takes massive amount of time to navigate
The Xbox 360 console has been out for over a year and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is still at the forefront of the consoles line-up. In an industry full of fast paced non-stop action shooters, slashers, and fighters the world of Oblivion is a welcome ...

Pros: Great graphics, sound and gameplay
Huge
Cons: Shorter than expected
Morrowind was a game that came out in 2002. This is the sequal to it, and it is a whole lot better in basically every aspect. This is honestly the best rpg I have ever played, and I have played many. The game isn't perfect. First off the game is ...

by curdled , Aug 06 '07
Pros: VERY long game, very versatile gameplay, extremely fun and full of many possible pathes. Cons: No Unofficial Mods, Glitchy, Same Voices For Each Race, Linear Quests, and now "It's Over".
My first 360 game. Seriously, unless you're kind of a younger player who isn't yet allowed to play M games, there is absolutely, positively no reason not to buy this. Forget Two Worlds, Assassin's Creed and Mass Effect (though of course, these should all ...
