Too late for Oblivion?

Since "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" is soon to be released, is there any reason at all for me to get the current latest installment in the series, cause I'm pretty sure I won't stop playing Skyrim when I get it and I don't want Oblivion to just lay there, collecting dust.

Technically , yeah, you're too late. Because it sold on Steam for only 5 bucks a month ago. (PC though)

But practically, if you can get it cheap (second hand), there's no reason not to get it... still a pretty awesome game :)

no its not to late, but the ps3 version is terrible. it seems like the graphics are worse than the 360's version, and i found a problem with the right analog stick.

if you barely move the right analog stick left or right, it barely moves like it's supposed to. keep on doing it then it turns really fast all of a sudden. its ridiculous trying to line up a ranged sneak attack on a moving target.

It is never too late for Oblivion, the game is great, and there's still two months until skyrim comes out. plus the goty edition should be like $15 or $20.

Honestly I would just wait. Skyrim is right around the corner, and it looks amazing, and certainly a lot better than Oblivion.

Definitely not too late. Why am I saying this? Because I'm playing through it for the first time right now - I just got it as well. It's old but still well worth the low price. The graphics are not too bad if you're worried about that, but Skyrim still does look way better. If you are going to get Oblivion, here's a tip: lower the difficulty in the beginning. The game became way too hard for me after the first few quests, and I figured out it was because the difficulty slider is automatically set to 100. I have more fun with the game doing side quests and exploring than playing through the main quest, and don't get obsessed with your stats and stuff, because it's single player only.

I don't think it's too late at all. I got it two weeks ago and it really is an awesome game.
