The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

Put down the cash for my pre-order today, so it's only a matter of time until Oblivion is mine.

I hope to god my computer runs it well on max settings. I want to experience this in full.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Just go a bit higher and get a 6600GT. It's a much, much, much better deal for the money.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm kind of hoping EB gives me a call to pick it up tomorrow, personally.

I'm working Tuesday night, so I won't be able to play much if I get it on Tuesday.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

My EB fucked up. They got the Xbox 360 regular and Collector's Edition, and the PC regular edition, but they forgot the one I pre-ordered, the PC Collector's Edition.

Needless to say, I'm pretty goddamn pissed off. How in the holy fuck do you do that?

I'm seriously considering no longer pre-ordering games from them anymore because of this (Not that it'll hurt them much, since I'm only planning to pre-order Zelda right now.) This is major-league bullshit.

(They did say they should be getting them later today, but I have work, and by the time I'm done they will be closed. If they don't have it by tomorrow morning, I'm gonna call their district manager or something. I'm really pissed.)

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

HELLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SPOILERS!

I was speaking idiomatically.

Well fuck, if EB hadn't fucked up my pre-order, I would KNOW THIS.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Most people should know you can equip swords before they buy Oblivion.

Some people, however, tried very hard to NOT be spoiled about the storyline of the game before it came out.

So fuck you very much, sir.

FELIPE NO

After a bit of inital faggotry, I managed to get Oblivion to work on my comp.

And boy did it work. This easily has some of the best graphics I have ever seen, and it's a hell of an improvement from Morrowind. The full voice acting and generally improved interface and pacing have really helped me get into the game in ways Morrowind never could. I love the concept of a free overworld where you can explore and such, but I like having a bit of guidance for things to do for the main quest. Morrowind just dumps you on a dock, but this has an actual narrative to follow.

Anyway, I'm currently

Spoiler:

Inside the first Oblivion gate, but I kind of rushed there, so I'm considering going back and exploring a bit more. Of course, if I knew how to heal my ally so he won't die, I'd be in a bit of a better situation.

For you guys wondering about different configs, here's mine.

Graphics settings: Ultra High Quality (Everything max except AA, because you can't use it with HDR for some reason.)

CPU: AMD Athlon X2 4200+
RAM: 2GB Corsair XMS Pro
Video Card: BFG 7800 GT OC

I didn't check my framerates, but I'm not having any issues with it. Seems pretty damn smooth to me.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Nope, PS3 is confirmed for launch.

Not that it matters, since anybody worth their salt already has the damn game. I'm more interested in the new PSP game, personally.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
