MasterYoda Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Is Oblivion worth getting a X-Box 360 for? (since my PC is sh*t) BTW. nice TV, but mine is soo much better. It even displays my ps2 NTSC games in black & white I'll probably be getting a HDTV in a few months, but until then i'm stuck with: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domstercool Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 I'm totally enjoying Oblivion at the moment. Put in 14 hours + so far and only got it thursday. It's a really really massive game and you feel so small and yet so immersed in it while playing. Nice TV DiemetriX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owario Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 I got my 360 and Oblivion and I'm having the time of my life. Eighteen hours in and I haven't even started the main quest. Is it just me or has my signature and avatar disappeared? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domstercool Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Oblivion just got 9.6 from Gamespot, best 360 game so far it seems, hehehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The3rdChildren Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 I also picked up Oblivion on Friday. The strange thing was Game had the regular and collectors editions both labelled at £50, so I went for the collectors edition. The game is immense. Overwhelmingly so. Not only did I spend hours on the character creation at the start, I also began to partake in numerous side quests before even considering the main one. To be fair I've only had a couple of hours play, but everything thus far is looking mighty fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I woke up early today to play it, after having a little chat with Jordan on XBL as he was introduced to the era of HIGH DEFINITION. CVD plans to be HIGH DEFINITION by the end of today, taking his gamer experience to the NEXT LEVEL. Chris, the concept of Oblivion is a free-roaming first/third person RPG. You don't even have to do the main story if you don't want to. You can just do side quests and explore the expansive world joining guilds and such. Graphically she is a treat, with some impressive draw distance and character models. It also received a 9.6 on Gamespot - the highest scoring Xbox 360 review to date, I believe. The review can explain it far better than I can, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero-of-Time Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Is anyone getting Blazing Angels? A few guys from work are getting it and I really enjoyed the demo in the marketplace. Flying over London while shooting down planes was awesome and I love the music that plays in the demo. Only thing I dont like is the " Tally Ho " accents the British guys have.

Stocka Posted March 25, 2006 Author Share Posted March 25, 2006 The Blazing Angels demo was enjoyable for a bit(despite it not being my kind of game at all) but I know 100% I'd get bored of it so quickly if I was to buy it. Remember they said the BF2: Modern Combat demo would be up Friday(yesterday)? Where is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meik Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Remember they said the BF2: Modern Combat demo would be up Friday(yesterday)? Where is it? It was pushed back apparently, it'll be up either Tuesday or Wednesday. I'd also like to add in my obligatory "Oblivion is great" post. Being a vampire, however, is not. I spent 2 hours being burnt whenever I went out into the sun before I realised you need to "feed" on sleeping people every so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jordan Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Care to explaine?The demo looks good on my Widescreen Tv. Widescreen TV = 16:9 Widescreen monitors = 16:10. Most games can compliment for this, however for some reason burnout doesn't. Its not major, you just have a black boarder all the way around it.

Cheers. a)When downloading the demos yesterday they were usually 600mb approx and ive got max broadband but it took like 20 minutes and didnt time but it took quite along time, they are big tho b)u get a free 1 month gold subsription other than that i think its silver, u can download demos with silver i think but there is no point of patches caus u cant play online with silver u need gold. c) depends were u go, after ur free 1 month of gold ur account automatically becomes silver, but u can put ur card details in and it debits ur account every month of £5, or u can get 3 months for £15, or you could get 12 months for £40 (or if u go someplace speical and get a code there usually £35) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B)Is the xbox live subscription bundled with the premium pack capabale of downloading demos and the patches to play the original xbox games. c)How much is a proper live subscription? Cheers. 1. Download speed depends on your connection and how busy the servers are. They usually take longer to download when they first come on the marketplace as everyone is after them. The demos vary in size. 2. Not sure. 3. £15 pounds for 3 months or around £35 for a years subscription. Its well worth it. The HD for the 360 is 20gb correct ?? Well then how have I only got 8gb left on mine ?? There is no demo's, music, pic on it at all iv looked around but can only find my game saves on, they cant take up all that space, can they ?? thx You only get 13gb as the other 7 is used for the Xbox patch, trailers, themes etc. At least thats my understanding of it. Someone else may be able to explain it better but thats the jist of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
