Oblivion reminds me of the day Half-Life came out, and while playing
it, I could feel paradigms shifting under my feet as it rewrote what
FPS's could be like.
Now, Oblivion isn't as unique as Half-Life was (Daggerfall and

Ok, I guess I'm not a complete newb, as I've played a few RPG games over the
years, just hasn't been my niche.
Anyhow, I'm not one to pass up a good game regardless of its genre, so of

Here's a list of Oblivion PC Cheats that I _have_ tested.

Looks like GoGamer.com might have some in stock if you missed the
Collector's Edition and still want to try and nab one. They sent me an
email advertising it, anyway.

Ok...  I've taken a quick look at the hardware specs for Oblivion...  If I
bought a new vid card to replace my Radeon 9000...  Say, an AGP Radeon X700
or something, would my Athlon XP 2200+ with 512 MB of RAM be able to keep
pace?  I don't care if I have to tune down some of the ...

The Guild Wars: Factions pre-view event has now started.
In order to play you either need to have a Guild Wars account, or get
a Buddy key (people who've pre-ordered GW: factions get one), then

asking here. Is there any way to check which major skill in particular I
need to raise (and to what number) to achieve next level of my character. Im
asking because I've been lvl1 for quite some time already, my ...

One fellow in the Imperial City named Rex can never be killed -- only
rendered unconscious. Disappointing in that Morrowind allowed you to
kill anyone. (sigh)

The ability to lock doors to prevent enemies persuating you. The AI then
will allow the NPCs to try picking lock or bash the door to get to you,

Any poster disregarding this edict will be banned from the group, and will

So far I've spent about 16 or 17 hours with Oblivion, and now feel like I'm
familiar enough with the game to make some non-spoily comments.
Overall Oblivion is the most immersive game I've ever played, period. You
really feel like you're there, in a richly detailed fantasy world, ...

I remember in Daggerfall you could wait in a shop until the shopkeep's gone
home, and take everything at your leisure.
How exactly do I get the five fingered discount in Oblivion exactly?  Even
if I break into the shop after the owner's gone, a guard will magically appear

The mage guild quest to gain entry into the Imperial library is to get a
recommendation from each mage guild.  I did all the quests but still the
