It’s the reason I ordered the 5 th Anniversary edition of the game. Perhaps, Oblivion evokes a sense of nostalgia in my inherently girly goblin-slaying heart, but I can’t shake that feeling of excitement. I remember the name of the character I made, her race and her class. I remember the day I picked up Oblivion for the first time. But don’t judge a book by its cover – or a tavern wench by her skirt stains – because there’s a lot more to a great game than just its graphics. There’s just one problem: which of these two recent games is better?įor a lot of people this might be a no-brainer. In fact, it’s so great it’s almost diabolical. Or is there? Perhaps the sandbox style gameplay. Truthfully, the storyline of both these – say it with me – awesome games is hardcore smack-you-in-the-face fantasy. And one ring to rule… Wait, that’s not right. So an age old battle is what we’ll call it. You wouldn’t call it an age old battle, unless you loved the Elder Scrolls as much as I do. Skyrim Image by Etah (Wake up Mr Freeman !)
