     The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion is literally the deepest game I have ever played.  There is no limit on what to do in this game.  From going to a city's main castle and kicking over the guards dinner on the floor, to robbing the local sword shop of everything they own.  There is no shortage of fun in this game, so lets get started.

     The player starts off in a prison, unknowing of their own crime, when the king of Cyrodill walks in and explains that "he is the one" and you are whisked away to begin your quest that the King gives you.  This is also where the player chooses his class, race, skills and attributes.  During this confrontation, you will find out that there is no shortage in awesome voice acting.  Everything is nailed to a T.

     Once you are out of the prison and the king gives you the main story quest, you can completely ignore it and start on the numerous side quests, exploring caves and tombs, robbing stores for loot, or go on a killing rampage.  There are consequences to actions, the city guard will attack if you do decide to perform some illegal actions.  Literally no limit to things you can do in the world of Oblivion.

     Leveling up in this game is different then what you would expect in an RPG.  Spells (fire, ice), weapons (swords, blunt, staves), to armor (heavy, light) has their own category.  Each time you use these things, the more and more powerful these things will become.  Once you level one of these categories, your character will level up and you will become stronger. 

     Cyrodill is the most beautiful game I have ever seen in my 15 years of living.  To sunsets, thunderstorms, and sunny days, everything just looks great.  The environments look amazing too. Forests, caves, and buildings all have an extraordinary detail to everything.  However, buildings and caves all have the same layout, with the occasional special tomb or building that is probably in the story.  The game runs great, with no hiccups in frame rate.

     Combat is another great feature in Oblivion.   Players use the left trigger to use a shield, if equipped, and the right trigger to use a sword, axe, or other many weapons of choice.  Players will also use the right bumper to use spells that are eqipped.  This all conjures up in the pot of awesomeness to make combat a seamless experience that is an amazing revolution.

     Any fan of RPG's will be awed by this masterpiece.  I really cannot explain my love for this game.  It just must be played by everyone.  From downloadable content that adds to the experience, it is almost impossible to not play this game over and over again.  I logged easily 200 hours, and anyone can.

Grand Theft Auto IV.  Does anything go wrong with you?  You and your gripping story and such human like characters.  Your beautiful city in which there is no limit of stuff to do.  Everything about you is amazing. 

The game starts with the main character Niko Bellic arriving in Liberty City, greeted by his cousin, Roman.  Niko soon finds that Roman lied about living the rich life, and Niko's tale of killing and death in Liberty City begins.  It is a deep and interesting story with twists and turns that leaves on you your seat, wanting more.  But, my favorite part is Niko in general.  He acts, like I have said it before, human.  He has these werid things called emotions and feeling that you don't really find in games all that much anymore.  The best Grand Theft Auto main character ever.

If you have ever played a GTA game, you will feel right at home.  You carry out missions for various people, wheather it be killing, stealing, or dealing.  There is no short of action in GTA IV, which is helped immensly by the new cover system, via Gears of War.  It works very well and can be a life saver.  The guns look and feel great, and there are many guns to be used. 

Driving is the most improved, IMO.  Every car feels, looks, and IS different.  Every car has its own feel, and touch.  For example, a sports car is going to have hella acclearation and decent handling, while a truck will be the opposite.

A fan of video games in general will feel right at home with GTA IV and i reccomend it to everyone and anyone.
