A Fantastic Game
This game has got to be one of my top favorites right now. The graphics were completely fantastic, the gameplay was immersive, great voice acting, and the choice to follow the main quest or the numerous side quests was perfect. At first the massive area you can travel in looks intimidating, but once you start playing you'll swear it will have only been an hour. The scenery was wonderful. I've spent time just looking around at the scenery. Trust me, it doesn't disappoint.
When making your character, the game offers many ways to change them in many possibilities. From cheek bones, or complexion, or jaw lines, the character creator gives you an unlimited arrays to make characters that are very unique.
One thing I loved about this game, was the custom things you can make. You can enchant armor and weapons, make potions, and even make spells among other things. And this game also comes with the Knight of the Nine expansion.
As for the difficulty, the game offers a great tutorial when you first start, and as you come upon new things, it gives you others to help you along. It make take 30 to 60 minutes to start getting into the gameplay, and learning how to do everything, but it will go by quick.
I have not played the 360 version, nor the PC one so I could not tell you a difference. But when all is said and done, Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion is a great game for any PS3 owner. So go on, get to the store, you won't want to miss it.
