Oblivion is a game where you play as a prisoner who gets freed from prison on account of your cell being the best way to escape from the city. Because your cell is such a good escape route, the emperor (did I mention this was a medieval fantasy game?) needs to escape the city through it because it isn't safe. He and his royal guards go through the sewers until halfway through the emperor starts talking about destiny and how it united you and him, he then proceeds to give you his amulet, saying he doubts he'll escape alive. He was right. Now you leave the guards and escape to deliver the amulet to a guy that the emperor was talking about. The guy, who is a monk with a strange name tells you to find the heir to the emperor so he can become the new king, and you end up in some kind of huge adventure to defeat the evil that killed the emperor. Well, that's as far as I'll go because I don't want to ruin the story.
Overall it was a great game, and it had tons of replay value as well as having hundreds of side-quests, making it take tons and tons of hours to see the 100% complete mark in your journal. It featured many different choices which would affect how others would treat you, for example committing lots of crimes will make everybody but criminals dislike you, while doing hero-like tasks will make others like you, with the one exception being thug.
This game was in stores since the Xbox 360 went in stores, yet it's still being played by many, and it deserves to be played by many. It's a really fun game, I would suggest trying a demo, or borrowing the game from somebody else to see if it your kind of game. Who know, you may even have found a new favorite game. That's all for today, see ya tomorrow (hopefully)!
