I'm playing Oblivion a lot, its a great game.

The only disapointing thing are performance and framerate issues, and the game needs a lot of tweaking.

Hopefully the game's designers and the graphics card manufucturers will release better drivers soon so as to give it a speed boost.

Its a class game.

(copied & pasted)
HDTVs contain an HD tuner allowing you to receive high definition, for example from your house antenna's over the air signal reception.

HD_READY TVs contain everything necessary to display high definition except that HD tuner. To display high definition, you need a separate high definition tuner box or cable (or other service) which provides a high definition digital cable box which does the tuning for high definition for you.

There has finally been a title confirmed for the revolution! It got leaked! Ubisoft's Red Steel is a sword and gunplay RPG which will utilise the motion sensors on the Rev's controller. Just thought I'd let y'all know.

Not a bad game but not worth the crazy amount you pay for it, I think it's something like 1200 points init?

£10 for a graphically superb game with endless online gameplay and not even having to go shopping to purchase.....sounds like the kinda future of gaming I was hoping for.  :buttrock
