Oblivion (360)
This is a game that I’ve actually owned for months, albeit on the PC. Sadly, I never got past the tutorial area because it was effectively a slideshow on my modest hardware. Not so on the 360 though – it chews it up and spits it out in a semi-digested morass of shiny smooth loveliness. And I’m not even playing in hi-def.
It’s a lovely lovely lovely game. So far, I’ve got to level 2, have closed an Oblivion gate (while still level 1) and stabbed some bears. The short segment on the Plane of Oblivion was pretty tough, but a combination of “healhealheal shield ice touch shield ice touch stabstabstab” seems to work quite well. As does squealing like a girl and running away. So anyway, I’m at Kvatch and have closed the gate, so the next job is to get into the city and see if I can find the guy I’m looking for.
