Oblivion? Super or stupid?
First of all, Oblivion is addictive.I added terrible multiplayer because there is NO multiplayer. Marrowind which is still one of my top five games and was great but Oblivion upped the standard of Bethesda in quests and visuals. The Engaging story before you start is great! And there is loads of great factions where if you dont want to do the main quest then these will occupy you...
Overall it is quite fun and fun

Still Holds Up to More Modern Games
First of all, "terrible multiplayer" actually means NO multiplayer. This was an extremely good follow up to Morrowind, which is still one of my top five games of all time, and upped the ante in the area of side quests and visuals. I had close to a hundred hours logged when I finally realized that I hadn't actually started the main quest yet, which was even more engaging, but the side quests did seem to get a little repetitive with the exception of the daedric and other more difficult to acquire quests. I wish, however, that I could add as a con that, until the patch that came with the GOTY edition, the AI was too good... way too good. The menus, inventory screens, map, and character creation was refined a lot from Morrowind and, although there are many things in Morrowind that I liked better, that does not take away from how good this game really is.

The best RPG to date. That's right, WoW users, let it sink in.
This game ROCKS! My only gripe is that there is no online multiplayer, but I guess it's because there are cheats. The graphics are amazing. There are a ton of quests, and the two expansion packs will keep you busy for a while.

A Classic!
That's what i call Role Playing.I always like being free in role playing games.And that's what i like most in Oblivion.When you stop by a cliff you see all those mountains,rivers and living things.And you are one of those living things.Every gamer should play this classic!

Oblivion Rock
It has not passed that much time since it was launched in 2005. If you want to lose time killing people and kreating mayhem in tha hole map well then you must get Oblivion. The controls for the PC are not the best, but if you have a great gamepad that has plenty of buttons well then it will be more comfortable for and even great game play. Graphics are the best in any T.E.S. game that has ever been launched to the market. Seriously they are great. Sounds and music are nice (Bethesda knows how to do it). So if you are bored of having nothing to do buy it or download it or however you want. GET IT!�!
