Can't say enough, I'm hooked. Oblivion does the best job of any RPG creating a large and immursive world to get lost in. Everything feels free to explore at will, and random as a living world. Not many games have brought me to playing 12 hr marathons since the original Diablo. You'll be hardly looking up from the monitor. Graphics really sell the immursion level of this game too, so you'll want to turn up everything as far as you can, which might be dissappointing if your vidcard is older.

Of all the fine points to Oblivion, I'd have to say the combat keeps the game exciting and suspenseful as a 3d shooter. Gone are the point-and-click target auto-atttacks of most online style games... the sword fighting is really visceral, you'll real back from blows to your shield, then try to flank your enemy, slicing and blocking away, just waiting for the right moment to land a power hit.. Overall the AI critters never swarm you either, but still provides a serious challenge up close - the pacing is just right for ranged and melee comboes.

A real explorers' game... Buy it now, worth every penny and more!
