Oblivion

Finally, Oblivion is out. As expected from the screenshots and trailer, it is astonishingly pretty. Really shows off the capability of the XBox 360 (not that we're playing it on ours - that's still off at Microsoft having unexpectedly turned into a brick after a software update - we have a borrowed box for now). Very much a next generation game - Morrowind was beautiful and insanely complex, but Oblivion takes this to a new level. Sadly with Paul having got a head start, and since I've got work and other things to keep me busy at the moment, my battlemage is still struggling at level 1 without a single axe to wield yet.
