Thanks Tib
Hmm, I wonder if they will update the game engine in any way, in particular the physics system... It was a bit shabby, but maybe I'm just nitpicking

It was a bit odd, on the 360 version the paint brush could stay in the air. Making it very easy to climb stuff. |

Quite a few people say there's bugs in it. If they make a new CS for it it might be worth buying. I'm glad they put crossbows in though. |

I'm not that impressed with it, but then all i've seen is more of the same quests as in oblivion, haven't found any crossbows yet and the whole environment looks too much lke felucia in star wars... I hope I don't ruin anyones high hopes for it
if you like oblivion then you'll like this, another 60sec angry-gamer review

I looove the npcs, if you get bored with the main quest just walk around town, and talk to people, its just as much fun as the main quest.

SO far I haven't been too impressed by the quest. Talking to Sheogorath is fun, and so is imitating his voice. I havev't gotten past addiction or the lady of paranoia yet. That is, Syl's and Thadon's quests. Not because I can't, but because I have somewhat better things to do. Btw, if I wanted to I could complete the quest really quick, because I've got the Prima games guide, but I'd rather do some retexes for OE and run around tearing up grummites. I HATE THEM!!! |

I'm not impressed. I haven't gotten very far...because of the constant bugs. I found a bug causing very intense unwanted shadows that take lag to a new extreme. It also randomly crashes for no reason at all...however, it is quite funny
. The one thing I do like is Bethesda doesn't hold your hand anymore. They through you into the Shivering Isles and say, "Here, go do something." It's a little overwhelming at first if you're used to Oblivion's constant spoon feeding...but like I said, I haven't gotten very far, so, who knows? Maybe all that will change and once I get to the main part of Shivering Ilses, everything will be handed to me on a silver platter again...

However, in OE, you don't get to become the Madgod. |

No, you don't get to become the Madgod, but you do get to become the leader of a huge army and go to war against the powers of the Dark Tribunal, and try to save Tamriel. I'll not say if you succeed, partially because I haven't decided yet, and partially because I don't want to spoil anything. |
