Oblivions a really good game, even though all i did was make a super stealthy thief and just robbed every house, picklocked every door i could find =D and then sold it to those thieve guild vendors.
I didnt get as far as the expansion but it looks worth it, if you like the game you should pick that up too. I however sold my 360 and all my games for credit and saving up for a ps3. I only cleared one oblivion gate and just found the 2nd in the middle of the forest.

The PC version you can mod and stuff but i dont think id find the time to play that while I have WoW.

There's already an existing thread for Oblivion.

Amaaaazing game for sure. The game's massive to begin with, but with the many expansions, it's easy to spend several hours playing without even touching the main quest.

I <3 the Shivering Isles. Sheogorath rules.

oops soz didn't see it lol yh i did all the other quests before starting on the main quest line i found the quick travel useful in oblivion i did have morowind but i found it quite hard and i kept getting lost

my first character was a sneaky thief, but I found the thieves guild stuff gets pretty boring after a while. The assassin guys, however, are probably the funnest thing in the game.

I've completed all quests in Oblivion and Morrowind. (along with my own mods, and others. Altogether 100+ Mods) I prefer Morrowind to this game because of its dark atmospheric effect, more Lore induced, longer, harder, and more customizable once you download the Mods.
Personally, I think this game is too straightforward. It marks your quest location on the map, the quick travel option, and enemies level up with you. This allows you to enter high level dungeons near the start of the game; whereas in Morrowind, you embark on your quest with clues solely; far more realistic in my opinion. There's less items too, something I liked in Morrowind, in which only certain NPC's carried certain items. Daedric equipment was far more difficult to obtain...
Overall Morrowind was more realistic.

I borrowed this from Aztec last year after he was done playing it, and it's not that bad of a game. It a way it's sorta slow and it takes me forever to get from place to place by walking, but the side-missions are pretty sweet and the story-line is actually really catchy. I never got too far into it since other games came out that caught my interest so I set Oblivion aside, but I'd definitely want to complete it someday.

I've beaten the game, it's definitely an excellent game, one of my favourites, my brother also likes it a lot, he's played it for well over 100 hours, which is a decent bit, for a Nintendo fan boy.

Yes, a Nintendo Fan Boy, and not afraid to admit it. XD

I enjoy video game franchises of others plenty too though, I like FF and MGS games, and yes, I have really enjoyed what I've played of Oblivion, which is quite a bit.

I'm level 40-something (can't remember, haven't played it in a while), and I've found well over 100 Nirnroot plants, so I have the Grand Elixir of Exploration available, it's very good, but I'm reluctant to use them, I don't really need any stat boosting potions to defeat enemies, a lot of my skills are at 100 (Master), so I manage to survive with just spells and strong sword swipes to fell the foes.

And yes, as you probably have guessed, I've also beaten the game, though I didn't follow the main quest much for a quite a while, because I was building my skills, stats, and level up.
