cant even find it in a store...wtf

Def worth it, there's so much to do it can be a little overwhelming at 1st because you don't know where to go. I'd say start off with some guild missions, like theives guild if sneaking is your thing, or warriors guild if your a fighter ect. Those get you out seeing different stuff and doing different things in the game. There's so much to do i never finished more than 10% of the story and i put in like 80hrs.

 

Assassins guild is the shit

 

Becoming a vampire is pretty cool too.

I hope they pimp that out for Skyrim, and add Warewolves back into the game.

Damn I need to get my ass to Target. You got GOTY Fallout 3 for 14 bucks? I wonder if that's for all Targets..

Do you realize how long those games are? I mean i guess if you start tomorrow, and don't sleep, you could prob finish morrowind and some of oblivion by nov 11th. Your talkin around 100hrs of game each, without the DLC that comes with the game of the year edition of oblivion. You COULD just plow through the
"main" quest. But you really would just miss out on everything the games have to offer if you did that.

i saw that oblivion 5th anniversary deal. i saw it coming July 14th

Target clearance are store specific. However, if a game is on clearance at one store, it will go on clearance at all stores but the price may not be the same at the same time. For example, I picked up BioShock 2 for $7.48 and someone else found it at their store for $3.75 (based off post in CAG.com).

I knew this would be a problem this is why I'm sketchy on getting this game or not. Should I play the others or just try to play skyrim?

You don't need to play them, but Morrowind and Oblivion are pretty awesome games once you dig deep.

any noober tips for oblivion? im just out of the tutorial cave and the first thing im supposed to do is drop off the amulet in wayland (cant recall the cities name)

when i played this back in 06 i was a noob to the entire RPG genre so the scope of the game and the meaning behind the skills ect ect really were beyond what i felt like dealing with. Now that i am more experienced with RPGs i have a better feel and understanding for an RPG like this one. i do still feel a bit lost now that im in the world

any tips on what to do as a starting point. im playing as a mage so finding the mage guild will be nice

 

[MvP]

I just realized that I never finished the Thieves Guild in Oblivion. I'll have to do that before Skyrim comes out.

You can fast travel to all city gates whenever, and the smaller locations once you reach them. Go ahead and begin the main quest for now, then I'd say begin the Mage's guild quests after you "find the heir".

Yeah doing the 1st few story missions, then hitting up a guild like jhen said. Guild missions lead you into other stuff, and you'll run into random other side missions while doing those. Also early on, walk/ride your horse everywhere, you'll run into more cool stuff that way.

I just realized that I never finished the Thieves Guild in Oblivion. I'll have to do that before Skyrim comes out.

Finishing the thieves guild makes sneaking/stealing so easy, and you get an item that essentially makes you a diffrent person, so when you take it off, any crimes you committed with it on don't count against you.
