I hate to contribute to derail this thread but here in Pitt County NC our state tax is 7% and our county is 2%. So we are effectively taxed right around 9%.

Anyways, I got skyrim for Xmas and still haven't evened opened it yet. The mount of great games that came out towards the end of last year was just crazy.

But you do get to collect unemployment while you search for a job that fits your experience and qualifications. I was laid off due to budget cuts last year and collected unemployment for 3 months until I was able to land a good job. Of course, I could have gotten a job at a fast food restaurant a week after I was laid off, but I didn't contribute money into the system for so many years just to turn my back on the benefits and take a job for which I am highly overqualified.

Back on topic, I am hoping Amazon or Newegg price match this.

Has Amazon ever matched this late in the game? Guess I'm going to Wally World tonight. *shudder*

You could always go to Best Buy and get it matched, Kazuya. At least there you'll get Reward Zone points for the purchase versus WM where you'll get only the satisfaction of making the Walton family that much richer.

I'm usually inclined to wait for the inevitable GOTY version, but $40 is a great price and life is to short to keep playing through Oblivion more out of obligation rather than because I'm having fun. Well, off to Wally-Mart!

Personally I would power through the main quest. If you don't want to do that, just do the dark brotherhood quest line. Thats the best stuff in the game anyway.

I finished the main story line earlier, and a bunch of the side quests. Easily put 50 hours into the game, and I keep coming back for more. I still have to finishing finding artifacts, guild quests, and I might make the Dragon Armor. That's going to take some time considering you have to have to get your smithing up to 100. Awesome game! I'll get back into Oblivion and finish the story, and the expansion pack.
