I agree totally, I haven't had any problems with my 360 either.


BTW, That is hilarious scorch.

In my opinion, a lot of the 360 problems come from people shoving their console in small enclosed places, then expect it to run fine and have no heating issues.

To keep this on topic, only four more days! I can't wait.


Edit: new video up on IGN to continue the countdown

Ebgames.com charged my card WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!

Saw the guide at EB today... its pretty big, 350 pages, however just flipping through it real fast it dosen't seem to be nearly as great as the Morrowind guide was.

Not sure if I'll lay down the $19.99 for it, which sucks, because I bought both the Daggerfall and Morrowind guides at launch and thought they were excellent.

lol fanboys

Never Saw this thread before so now its BookMarked! Thanks OP!

Or, in the same irrational and ignorant breath, you could go on to say that gaming should have never left the arcade, as they are tailored differently for home consoles.

Not to mention that the Oblivion project isn't "compromised" for the 360 console, in turn compromised for the PC. This was the developer's choice, and an obvious progression from the last title in the series. You're trying to appear intelligent with overtones of "PC gaming is better", undertones of "Xbox sucks" and a mixturetone of "I liked their old stuff better."

In other words: Shut the up.

Damn Nas, spittin' the ether!

I put in a preorder for this at EB today. I was hoping to snag a CE copy but they told me they were all sold out already on preorders. If they get extra copies though, they said they'll bump me to a CE.

Can't wait though. This is the reason I bought a 360.

What? Don't deal with that bullshit at EB, this isn't going to be like an MGS 3 LE fiasco... just head down to Best Buy or any other retailer, since they'll get the LE also.

You can also use the 10% off coupon at BB as well

I can wait for this game...it seems like a dream come true, expecially with these daily teaser trailers I have to look forward to each day

As soon as I read that about EB not taking anymore preorders I thought "here we go again" (MGS3LE) and then I scrolled to your post...

I suppose that now EBGames is going to act like they know what the hell's going on and treat every CE/LE/SE as a rarity.

Not sure if this has been posted or not, so I apologize if this is a repost, but here are the Oblivion achievements.

You have to scroll down a little to see them. I really dig the icons.

I was hoping for 1 - 5 point achievements, but that was wishful thinking.

Regardless, I'm pleased.

Man, just a few more days... I can't wait. Of course, I'm getting it shipped from Outpost, so it may take a few weeks...

I'm sorry if this has been asked a million times already, but what does the Collector's Edition come with? I'd like to know before I spend $10 more for it.
