Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion E3 Impressions

GameSpot has written up some initial impressions of Bethesda’s Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, after seeing a short video of the RPG at this year’s E3. Check it out:

A skeleton in a sewer appears next, and although we’ve seen plenty of instances of that scene in games over the years, this is arguably the most impressive, as the skeleton is well animated and shuffles toward you with a convincing amount of slowness. Next up is another third-person viewpoint, this time of a single soldier taking on a half-dozen enemies at once. Since he’s armed with only a sword, it’s doubtful that the soldier can survive, but as is often the case, the view cuts away before the fight can resolve.
