Oblivion is very good if you like rpg games. Burnout revenge is hugely entertaining for a bit of no-brainer arcade racing, and blazing angels looks like fun (out this Friday - demo available on marketplace).

Not really. It's a lot more "realisitic" than the cartoony world of FF. Think of it more like a game version of a fantasy film like Conan with a bit mor magic thrown in and a deeper plot

Is it all hit points and turn based magic battles malarkey, or more arcadey/playable like the Zelda games? The reviews look good but I'm not really into RPG's either.

Not released until next Friday. If he gets it to you this week then it's either nicked, a knock off, or he's breaking the distribution agreements...

Not turn based at all. The fighting is more like a fps, just with swords and magic instead of a gun.

Damn you guys all praising this game, should I buy it, shouldn't I :0/

Never been a big RPG fan, I could never get into all this creating spells/magic etc etc, however I did really enjoy Fable on the Xbox.. Is this 'similar' to Fable !

It closer to fable than FF, but it's a lot more "realistic" in looks and more adult in content.

Casting spells is no harder than going into the menu, assigning a spell to a button on the joypad, then pressing it when you want it. The control method is actually very intuitive...

Quite fancy it myself but think I'll wait until TR & Far Cry are out of the way so might get a cheapo copy off fleabay.

Fable was designed from the outset to take on "Morrowind", the predecessor to Oblivion. Oblivion is really MW with better graphics and a much better AI. Apart from the lack-lustre Fable, the only game even close is Gothic2.
