Game to cause oblivion or stop Oblivion!
Gameplay: I give it a ten because it seems to have little flaws. The interface is easy to get into (but not as smooth as the PC) and fits well for the 360. You create a character and decide the certain attributes he or she focuses on, and even how he looks. Basically its an RPG where you can decide almost anything on what you wanna do, join guilds, murder villagers and cause havoc in the cities and villages, fight evil in the main quest, do sidequests to help the many NPCs in the world, and much more.
Graphics: This game has absolutely awesome graphics. Everything from the sun shining on your traveler's face to the fiery planes of the Oblivion worlds look astonishing. There is only one problem with the beautiful graphics, the enviroments such as caves and interiors of buildings does get a bit repetitive, but with graphics this beautiful I'm not complaining (much :D)
Sound: Sound effects in this game are a real hoot to hear I tell you. From listening to the music, you can really tell that Jeremy Soule (Who composed the music) really wanted to give you taht epic feeling in this game without being too intrusive, it is just right for every situation without ruining a moment. And the other sounds, like the clash of steel on flesh, the moans of the undead, and talking is all superb, you won't tire from any of these sound effects because they are really well done. The only thing that is a gripe is the bland dialogue for NPCS, due to the limited voice acting.
Value: This game is definitely worth what you pay for. THe options in this game are nearly endless, giving you a largely replayable game. Right after you finish a character (beating all quests, making him an unstoppable juggernaut etc.) You may want to create a new character thinking "I wonder...if i make a character who wants to be stealthy instead of a in your face warrior...?" The game easily nets you over 100 hours of gameplay, and even more if you have the time!
Well, this game is definitely a good one, but it isn't for everyone. There are some glitches and bugs in this game that may interfere with quetss or character, and that may be a big turnoff for some. But if you can get past the minor glitches, I think you will be very happy playing this game
