Also, since I'm a fan of this series since the first installment, the game itself is pretty cool. Now, here are the problems with the Xbox 360 version. Load times are extremely long, whether you are loading a save game or starting a new game, expect to see the 360 screen saver pop up or your controller turn off due to the amount of time passing by. Also, looting a corpse, examining a chest, or even going into your inventory, will cause the game to take a very long time to load (if it doesn't just freeze altogether). So if you enjoy sitting around for 10+ minutes whenever you try to do anything, then go ahead and buy this piece of garbage. Or, if you have a decent PC, buy the PC version instead plus the expansions (downloadable content). With the PC version it is just as pretty but without all the ridiculous bugs. After working 5+ years in the video game industry as a quality assurance supervisor, I can't believe how or why the Xbox 360 version was even released. It's utter crap.

Ruins the idea of fantasy. <br />2) NPCs personalities are all the same. <br />3) Repetitive hack and slash game. <br />4) Ridiculous background music. <br />5) Poor main storyline. <br />6) Too many bugs, especially for the various Great Houses and factions. <br />7) It felt a little too real-life medieval rather than a fun game. <br />8) Lame in-game jokes. Eg: M'aiq the Liar. <br />9) The ending of the main storyline, Great House, all guides and factions, are all extremely poor. <br /> <br />If it was like Kotor I a bit, or Neverwinter Nights series in companion interaction, then it would be much better. I find this game a little too open ended and didn't have a pulling effect into the main storyline as many other games are capable of doing. <br /> <br />I've also tried Shivering Isle. It didn't add much to Oblivion. I regret purchasing Oblivion. Rating: 1 / 5 1) Graphics are too realistic. Ruins the idea of fantasy.
