Earlier this year I saw a trailer for Skyrim, the fifth elder scrolls title, and it looked awesome, so I bought the fourth one Oblivion. In the story you start as a prisoner in the imperial jail, captive in that place makes you the lowest of the low, but then you are visited by the last person you would expect to visit an inmate, it's the emperor, he tells you that he is going to die and gives you something that you have to take to the leader of Blades. The Blades are like the secret service for the emperor, when you give it to the Blade's grandmaster you find out that there is a secret heir to the throne named Martin. 
    You go to the city where Martin lives as a priest who doesn't know he's the emperor's son, but when you get there you find that a gate to the hellish realm of Oblivion opened and the monsters called Deadra are coming through the gate to attack. The city where Martin lives is called "Kvatch" which sounds dumb because.....The Game is great and controls are good, the art could be a bit better but what made this game not as good was the animation, lip sync was pretty bad and the jump animation made it look like I was being yanked up into the air by invisible ropes every time I jumped.
    Something that the developer Bethesda Game Studios does with all the Elder Scrolls  games is that you can switch between playing in first person or third person at anytime in game play.
Overall I give this game an 8.6 out of 10, because it was great but story and animation could be better, and will be better in Skyrim which comes out on 11.11.11.
