Honestly, the only problems I had with the XBox version were due to a bad disc. I didn't run into any actual bugs.

So true. We never really see Boba Fett do anything impressive, and then he gets taken out like a chump. We just want to believe he is bad-ass.

As I posted right above you (possible about the same time) Morrowind and Oblivion are being designed for both the XBox and PC at the same time. There is a different team for instance however working on the XBox version, as it has a different interface and all.

The Elder Scroll series was always PC first. Morrowind and Oblivion are designed for PC and XBox simulataneously. Given that you can install expanions and mods on the PC versions, I believe them to be far superior.

Very well put.

Now I need to hunt through the bargain bins!

There are tons of people who would argue Morrowind already is a great game that sucked away 200 hours of their lives.

Like I've said before, inlfuence is touchy. In Handmaiden is suddenly happy with evil actions just because you're evil, then you get max influence with everyone just for doing what you would normally do.

I was looking forward to Undying, but never played it after everyone panned it.

The combat system, improved AI, and improved dialogue look to make Oblivion a GREAT GAME. I think Morrowind was a near miss, and may still be great with it's flaws.

I don't think it makes for a particularly fair game when 3 of the 7 nations were denied a turn. I don't think many people would enter a game under those circumstances, and I'm curious who really opposed going back one turn. That being said, I'm going to continue to play, but I'm not entirely happy.

Most of this thread has dealt with direct comparisons of Halo and Half Life. That is being on-topic.

Rockstar has a good sense of humor. And yet I haven't loved any Rockstar game nearly as much as I love GTA.

I still haven't played the original, and I bought it with Siege or Arcana or whatever.

Perhaps like the first Resident Evil? Creep factor mixed with action?

Meanwhile Bethesda has made some good RPGs over the years. BiS can't say that every single RPG they released won RPG of the year. Bethesda can. People keep forgetting that. Bethesda's recent comments on Oblivion show they learned some of the mistakes from Morrowind, and are addressing them. FO3 won't be Morrowind with guns.

Actually I think Oblivion might be better than KOTOR. KOTOR was still a very flawed game, don't forget.

I do believe FO3 is in development. Oblivion was in development nearly 2 years before they even announced the project.

I'm a fanboy of Red Swingline staplers.

Here's the problem with this mod. It started on RPG Maker years ago. And I've followed it closely. They've never made much progress in years with a huge team. ThePal however created the entire world of Britannia and Serpent Isle in weeks in Morrowind. ThePal has decided to hold off his Ultima remake/reinvention of Ultima IX until Oblivion ships. My money is that ThePal's version comes out first as he is an exteremely productive and talented Morrowind modder as is.

And Keith Courage, and Splatterhouse... ...and I go to fire up my emulator!

I think elipses work well for continuations, and I was using them on Friday, but not so much in the preludes. I'm fired. And two characters will be diaberlie bait.... ahem.

Spellmar is not pleased.

I might make unlimited new-days on my test server and allow people to exploit there, but not on my main server.

I dug my Turbo-Graphix 16, especially Cadash.
