In the end, this will all come down to me making the final choice, I understand that. If you're one of those people who tell people, "Make up your own mind, we can't make the decision for you." or anything along those lines, then you may as well stop reading this now because like I said, I understand that it will be up to me overall whether or not I get the game.

So, here it is. I've beaten GTA IV, COD4, Resistance, Assassins Creed, and Uncharted Drakes Fortune. I also own MLB The Show. So, I own action/adventure, sports, FPS..whats missing? An RPG. RPG's are my favorite types of games, yet I dont even own one. This is what my problem is, I used to own an xbox 360, got Oblivion for that and disliked it very much. I sold my 360, got a ps3, figured i'd try oblivion again and got it this past christmas. for some reason I enjoyed it a little bit more then when I played on the 360, got a little further, but wound up selling it again because I just couldnt enjoy it!

Now, with the game being so cheap and me being in dire need of a good RPG, plus the fact that summer vacation is coming up so ill have more time to play, do you think it is worth buying for a THIRD time and giving this game a shot? Has anyone here been in a similar position as I have been with this game where you just couldnt seem to enjoy it but wound up loving it? Again, im a huge RPG fan and in the past ive hated games but have grown to love them, do I just need to give this game another chance? Or is it basically if ive played it twice and didnt like it then I most likely wont like it a third time?

Of course, you guys cant read my mind and give me a diffinet YES you will like it or NO you wont like it. But any feedback to the questions i've asked, or anything you can tell me about the game that is interesting that may make me enjoy it more would be great..ive heard so many things about this game and I really dont wanna miss out on it if its that good. Thanks guys.

I would say move onto something else and don't waste your time. The PS3 is short on RPGs sadly so maybe look for a RPG for the PS2 if you have the right PS3. That's what I am going to be doing if there are no good RPGs out when I am done MGS4

If you didn't like it the first two times you probably shouldn't try it a third.

i did the same thing you did....i was hyped for it on release for pc....didnt enjoy it.....then later bought it for ps3 and gave it a second chance...i liked it a little but still blaaa....it just sits on my shelf collecting dust....i think its cuz theres no characters to get attached to and the story is lame...most overated game ever in my opinion. I say forget the game....every couple months i get the urge to give it another chance and it just ends the same blaaa, only half intresting thing in the whole game are the dark brotherhood quests, and def dont warrant a purchase.....yep we are really lacking good rpgs oh and dont bother looking into enchanted arms, that games like drinking bleach and having a goat kick you ballz at the same time....

You guys who are afraid to buy a game and then be stuck with it need to check my sig. Goozex is where you need to be. Get the game...play it...like it or don't....then trade it and get something else. It's the way to get rid of games you no longer play and get those games you think you wanted. Don't like it....trade it again. Having said that:

Have you considered JRPG's? I'm currently playing Persona 3 and Persona Nocturne. I played the crap outa Oblivion and loved it. Have the shivering isles expansion now too. But these Persona games for the PS2 are just fun. Start slow but pick up. Check some videos out though on here or gametrailers first though.

well oblivion is superb and one of my personal favorites and i am never bored of playing it. But unless you havent enjoyed it the past two times there is no reason of buying it a third time. I think that Forklore is a good RPG out there, so go for it

Personaly, I dont really know what to say, cos I never played Oblivion before.But on account of what you said, dont give it another shot, cos, if you didnt like then, you probably wont like it now. Oh, yeah, why is this a very, very outdated question?

Thanks for all your responses. For the poster above me, I didnt want to stick with the 360 because I felt like everytime I turned it on it was going to explode. I used to own a ps2 and ps1 and I never had a problem with sony consoles. When I got the 360, I had disc errors, I couldnt play my xbox without worrying about it freezing on me or getting the RROD. Since ive had the ps3 its only froze on me twice and that was all the way back in December..nothing has happend since. But, I dont wanna get too off topic otherwise they will lock this...

--So back to the original topic, thanks for those of you that gave some feedback. I guess most of you are right when saying if I didnt like it the first two times then theres no point in buying it for a third time. I guess my only option if I need a RPG for ps3 would be Folklore since I dont own a BC playstation..any thoughts on this game from anyone?

Folklore, or wait For Disega 3 for ps3.you should have waited till early 2009. for more RPG's. like W.K.C.,FFXIII, versus, the whole acchialada.
