The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (Collector's Edition) (PC Games, 2006)

this is a great game that you can spend practically forever on and is worth the money and you should have for a gamer for pc or xbox 360, its like the best game ever ya.. like O MY GOSH

SUPER ADVETURE GAME, TONS OF FUN, YOU GO AROUND PICK-POCKETING AND COLLECTING THINGS.... MAJIC GO TO JAIL- STEAL HORSES. AN INVOLVING AND INVOLVING GAME THATS ALOT OF FUN TO PLAY.

THIS GAME LOOKS AND PLAYS AMAZING IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A ROLE-PLAYING GAME THAT WILL TAKE A FEW WEEKS TO BEAT AND REALLY GET YOUR MONEYS WORTH THIS IS THE ONE. VERY EASY TO PLAY AND ADDICTIVE. IF YOU ARE A DIE HARD GAMER SPEND THE EXTRA COUPLE BUCKS AND GET THE COLLECTOR'S VERSION!

Awsome game...i couldn't be happier with it..it has such a great story that has lots of twists and turns...and the graphics are unbelieveable...especially the daylight on the water. it is so realistic. and the fighting is very realistic ....don't keep reading this...go out and buy it ...you will not be disappointed in it...it will keep you busy for a very long time. make sure you get Morrowind game of the year edition if you didn't play that before Oblivion...Morrowind seems generic compared to Oblivion.....Bethesda has made the best series of games here with the Elder Scrolls series....Oblivion will knock your socks off...just make sure you have some time to check all the new drivers for your video card ..i've used Forceware Whql,Beta and Ultra, Ngo, Zeropoint, z-tweaked, Dna Force, Xtreme-g. so you really have to see which ones give you the best performance...make sure you use driver cleaner when changing drivers or you can have some very bad side affects..

The game has awesome graphics, awesome gameplay & goes on forever! This is one of the best games I have ever played.
If you have a chump video card, don't even think about this game, cuz you can't run it...

I decided to buy this game because I played Morrowind previously, quite possibly the best game I had played at that point.

Oblivion, of course, is an improved Morrowind with a whole new world, so basically I consider it the best game ever made.

originally I wanted to buy it because I thought the collector's edition value may go up. It may or may not have so far, I'm not sure.

Turn the tide of darkness.With the empire ready to crumble,the gates of Oblivion open and demons march upon the land.You must find the lost heir to the throne and unravel the sinister plot that threatens to destroy all of Tamriel.

Unprecedented visuals,including lifelike towns,dungeons,and realistic forests.

Very good game Buy it.You will not be disappointed.

This game is phenominal.The graphics are beautiful and there is so much to do.You can spend hours in just some of the non quest caves,ruins and forts.This is the best rpg game out there.There are several classes and races to choose from when you design your character.You can actually purchase and furnish houses.The maps are wonderful and allow fast travel if you chose.I have the pc version and have had no technical issues.One post in here says there are no pc hotkeys but there are for your spells(1-8).This game allows you to enchant items and create spells and potions!OMG go buy it!!!

I loved all the elder scrolls games... including this one. But i thought this game should have been longer and it needed some variety, after awile it seemed like all i was doing was running to another gate and sealing it, then doing it over again not to mention the buildings, how many different buldings are there? 3? 4? ... an Another issue i had was that i was used to playing it on the PC and i bought a brand new computer to run it. And Although you can play this game on a PC it was designed for the Xbox 360 and playing it on a pc atleast now before any updates or expansions are released is mostly disapointing even if your computer exceeds the pretty massive system requirements. infact dont play it unless you can meet the high end system reqs. And you might as well play it with a xbox 360 controller too.... because there are no hotkeys. IF you like graphics it's got what you need. but most everything has been downsized from morrowind except for graphics and audio. sure, everyone talks and you'll recognize the voices from star trek and lotr and the graphics blow away anything i've ever played before... but i'd rather be able to fly everywhere with my potion of levitation (including in and out of town), wear a pauldron, sell and buy an item with out clicking the mouse 5 times per item, and not have every single minor bandit fight me wearing glass or daedric armor. to put this simply; i prefer morrowind.

A must have for a gamer.............................................................................

I've been playing this game non-stop since I got it. It is such a complex game, but in a good way! With so many different possibilities available to you, great gameplay, immersive story-telling, and super clean and gorgeous graphics, it's not surprising this game has gotten so many positive reviews. The game was released in 2006 and still holds up flawlessly as one of the best RPG games to play.

I have this on xbox 360 and had to buy the collector's edition for all the little extras. :)

The video quality is based on the grade of video card you have. I have played it on an Nvidia 5600go laptop video card and graphics are ok. It will put a load on a system like that. But if you have say an ATI 2600 or Higher or a Nvidia 6200 or better then the video/graphics are stunning.
With the video demands out of the way you can truly spend hour playing this game. Regular time from start to finish can be 200 hours of game play or more. With the PC version you can use the tilda "~" key to enter the cheat mode screen while in game play. Look to cheat site for the codes to use. This game has more codes than any other game I have ever played.
The difference with the collector's edition from the regular is the bonus material that comes with the game. The making of DVD video, a replica Septim Coin (the coin used in the game), and a nice faux leather bound 112 page book with the back story for the game so as to give the game more depth in fantasy play.

It you are a dungeons & dragons fan or an turn based fantasy role playing game this is the best PC game out there that emulates RPG play with stunning first person or third person views for your choosing. In my opinion this is better that Fable 2 which just came out by hands down.

good game hours of fun would resament it to other pc gamers who enjoy spending hours in front of their computers doing nothing

The world in this game is huge. There are many side quests that can keep you playing for a hundred hours plus. The characters are fully cusatomizable, the NPCs have very different personalities, and they do "normal"-type things ie eat, sleep etc. The combat engine in this game is groundbreakingly good. Great game. If you like RPGs at all, you must buy this game.

This was an absolutley amazing purchase. I had already bought this game about a month prior to finding this auction and imediatley picked it up again for the extras offered with the collector's edition.

The Urial Septium Coin - Amazing.
The "Making of" DVD was was entertaining and informitive. A really good Extra.
The Guide to Cyrodil Book was way nicer than I expected. Not only did it tell the game's story well, it also had some really nice artwork to balance it out.

In all I'm extremely satisfied and give this buy a 5 star rating. ThanX Alot.

Excellent price! This was a collector edition of the game, and my kids loved it! It was shipped SUPER fast, too. Just an excellent deal all around!

As with its predecessors, Oblivion delivers! The graphics are breathtaking. The action is nonstop. The story is seemingly endless. You are in for hours of entertainment with this one.

Ok i bought this game the same time i bought wow (world of warcraft) and i must say oblivion is beautiful the graphics are awe inspiring and the game play is pretty smooth. The only problem is as i stated earlier i bought wow to and wow is much more fun and addicting then oblivion. Pros on oblivion ... it is massive the world is huge tons of things to do and a whole lot of quest. Also the graphics are just crazy. Cons on this game... It requires a very good computer to run it nicely.. i miself have about a $1400 comp i built miself and it still chuggs a little at times. Another thing i disliked or havnt gotten used to is the battle style it hard to tell if ur in range of hitting enemys with ur sword or axe. I like this game alot but only when my net is down but if my net is working this game doesnt get alot of playing time. If u got a strong system and dont care for multiplayer online games get oblivion its a great and worth every $

This game is better than Morrowind yet always ahead of gamming when it comes to graphics and details of the slightest details. Almost as if your living in the time of the game. This game is sick and VERY addicting. Very graphic, and yet oh so lively. The audio on this game is editable and in HD. All 8 speakers pick up the sound and it is the best game yet played.

You can follow the stoy line, or make your own path. You can be the hero or the villian. You can also spend hours just creating your character to your liking with over 50 adjustments you can make to your characters face alone. This is the most impressive graphics, and the cities just keep getting better as you play the game through 9 very different cities and hundreds of other caves, small towns, houses, ruines, and then there is also the oblivion world. You walk through the over two hundred portals to find a different world all together. If you like a suprise on how much time one can spend playing a game for fun, not just to say I beat the game, then this is well worth the money!!!(If you owned Morrowind Elder Scrolls III, youll love this)

The graphics are much, much better than Morrowind. Sound is just as good as Morrowind and the main theme is a tribute to the Morrowind main theme. There are a lot of voices in this game and it is possible to not have to read any of the conversions and just listen to the NPCs. You can thankfully skip over lines that you don't want to hear if you are a fast reader. Just like Morrowind you can also add new songs to the music folder if you want to use a custom soundtrack. Control is improved. Blocking is so much better that even if you aren't a warrior you can hold your own in melee against the common enemies. The new magic casting does take some getting used to and so does the unified menus. Controls do feel more like a console game and Oblivion's battles are a lot more action based than Morrowind's. As for gameplay, most of the changes are for the better. Enemies level up now so leveling up the wrong skills may get you into trouble at the higher levels but so far it hasn't bothered me. Trading is different and I'm not sure it's improved that much. Lockpicking gives you the option to do a minigame but you can also do it the Morrowind way. Speechcraft is thankfully much more improved. Stealing is also more elaborate. Steal from a store and hang around and the guards will come looking for you even if nobody actually saw you stealing. The missions are now more elaborate and even the most trivial ones may surprise you with some funny, emotional and even sensual topics. Travel is different with no more stilt riders, boats or guild guides. Now you have a horse option and a fast travel option to places you've been to before or major sites you haven't been to yet. All you're old Morrowind tricks like repairing bound armor, shooting arrows while levitating, beating people to a pulp with your bare hands and gaining magicka by fighting your own creatures is still possible. If you liked Morrowind you'll most likely like this one as well. Players who were put off by Morrowind's low level combat should try Oblivion. Players who traditionally don' like deep RPGs should give it a chance. Like hack and slash games? Create a stereotypical warrior and join the fighter’s guild. Like stealth games? Create a stereotypical thief and join the thief’s guild. You may just like it enough to try out new things.

likes; everything. great game overall should be a great competitor to 'heroes of annihilated empires'

dislikes; would be nice if the game was taking advantage of being installed completely to a hdd (raid for me) so that there would be no lag during some scenes loading.

system; you better have a serious system to take full advantage of this game(i have a dual xeon 12g w/2g memory 6800 bfg oc video)and the game just barely goes at 80% performance.
