Heh, oops sry dude. :dennis:
You should find Oblivion in pretty much all stores by now. Maybe they were just out of stock when you went in since it's just been released.
The game is basically an fp-rpg set in an absolutely enormous fantasy world (almost too big!), complete with cities, towns, countryside, forests, swampland, mountain ranges and of course undead skeleton filled dungeons! You can get involved in the main story which goes on about murdered kings long lost sons and demon portals etc....go around hitting enemies, talking to npcs, levelling up, stealing peoples things etc... or you can just wander round and take in the views and do side quests. The rpg elements are pretty in depth with detailed character creation, character levelling, magic, enchanting weapons, thousands of items, but they purposely simplified the whole process so that its not so overwhelming for players new to the genre.
People have been saying very good things about Oblivion. If you've played any of the Elder Scrolls games like Morrowind or previous ones, you'll know what to expect from the gameplay, but the gfx in OB are spectacular in places. The only draw back would be that you either need a beastly PC to run it in all its glory, or get an xbox 360. But I suppose neither are really drawbacks if you've got enough cash lying around.
I'm waiting till the end of the month to buy this though cos of exams, since I know how addicted I'd get to it if I got it now!
