Ouch.. thats going to hurt a few pockets...

[Hignaki]

Oblivion just LOVES my 3.4ES (engineering sample) CPU. Don't you, Oblivion? Yes, you do!

[Taco]

Droooool.

Can't wait.

[Kelegacy]

It'll be no large accomplishment to sell more copies on the 360, that's for sure. Yet all the news sites, PR guys, and Microsoft will point this out. Everyone will cry that PC gaming is dying. Then Bethesda will switch even more focus from the PC platform, blahblahblah and we get a front page news post and all argue until we are blue in the face.

My clairvoyance is a gift AND a curse.

[Taco]

Not me, I was mildly concerned about Morrowind being released for the XBox. Those concerns have long since been put to rest.

But yeah, if they pull a DX2(which I doubt) I think any backlash would be deserving.

[merlinchang]

I'm fine with those. Cant wait for this game.

[BleedTheFreak]

I did a poll on the official forums, about 70% of the 100 or so polled are getting the PC version, it's going to out sell the 360 version by a landslide, I'm sure.

That being said, I have a 6600GT, 1Gig RAm, and a 2600+ AthalonXP. While I think I have a decent system (and am upgrading to a San Diego 64 w/ 7800GT later this year) I'm getting this on the 360. If I'm still enjoying it or want to play some of the user mods once I upgrade, I'll buy it again from the bargin bin.

[Kelegacy]

How does the 360 version work? I mean interface, controls, etc. With a PC you have the mouse to manipulate things like the chains and stuff, but how does that work with the consoles? Do you need to hold down a trigger to bring up a cursor for searching, analyzing, and interacting? Jesus, I need this on PC but don't want to spend the bucks upgrading my PC right now.

Yeah, because the hardcore community (whose concerned about mods) is the single best way to judge sales :rolleyes: . I think maybe in the short term, it'll outsell the console because of a lack of an install base, but long term the 360 will win

I think the jury is still out on this one. I personally am going to go Xbox 360. I've been a PC gamer for well over a decade now, but I've got other priorities these days. I'm a musician, and gaming upgrades have sucked my wallet dry forever. I paid that much for the 360 for a reason.

They talked about this on a recent interview at OXM. I'll paste it here for you:

How are you mapping the combat system onto the Xbox 360 pad? Will it feel like an FPS?
Gavin Carter: It follows the FPS standard closely, so if you've played Halo or any other shooter on Xbox or Xbox 360, you'll pick up on the controls instantly. The left stick moves you forwards and backwards and side to side, while the right stick lets you look around. The triggers attack and block, while the right shoulder button fires spells.

The left shoulder button is a new control feature we added - you use it to physically manipulate objects in the world. You can grab things, toss them around, or place them just so. A big request that people had was the ability to place items where they wanted in-game, so we were able to easily implement that in Oblivion using Havok physics.

I also know the D-Pad is used to assign spells and weapons, all 8 directions can be used. I assume the interface (character screen, etc.) is simply called up by Start (probably) and then once that's up the left stick cycles between the tabs on the page, so you can navigate to journal, skills, inventory, etc.

I hate schemes like that. Having to hold down the trigger and enter a different "mode" is another reason I have little patience with certain games on controller lay-outs, 1st person games especially. Oh how I wish the 360 supported the kb/m. It's cumbersome for me otherwise.

[Grimgrock]

Release date is still "early 2006". That could mean March or it could mean May. Depending on what you define as "early". My money is on March though.

BTW, wasn't this already a newspost last night?

[Taco]

I'm amazed a trackball type device hasn't become popular. I'd think that would work well on a console.

Hmn. I don't think you hold any buttons down to enter a "mode" like you describe. You hold a bumber button down to pick up objects and as long as you are holding the button, you are holding the object, but I think that's it. Other wise it's just move, triggers for blocking and attacking/casting, and d-pad to call up a quick-spell or quick-weapon?

[ezra]

Any idea what an AMD 2600+ (2.1GHZ) is eqivalent to in Intel-speak?

[Taco]

Guesstimating in the 2.7-2.9 range

Yeah, I know, but it's definitely less intuitive than a mouse. Damnit. If I see Oblivion for 360 in a store kiosk, I'll try it out. If I can stomach it, I'll think about it. I hate buying a console for one game, though; likewise on upgrading a PC. I'll probably just wait until later this year. Patience is a virtue!

[Paranoia]

I need to upgrade my PC just to meet recommended requirements? That's it, its CONSOLE time!

[Oddmaker]

haha, well just wait untill you go into the forest ;) framerates fall like anything.

[solinari6]

If you're going to upgrade for the PC version, I'd wait a couple months. My guess is Oblivion will be pack-ins for a number of video cards, just like Morrowind was.

[Cupelix]

Just based on the number of patches and fixes I seem to remember Morrowind needed, buying this on a console scares me since its a simultaneous release. At least Morrowind had some extra development time before it came out on X-Box which ironed out some of the bugs and annoyances of the original PC release.

[The Letter 3]

*sigh* Oblivion looks so pretty on PC. And my bank account looks so ugly. Bye-bye Oblivion on the PC, see you in my dreams.

[Evil_SPanKY]

Good thing I just built me a new cray system. Gonna need it for these specs...

I am going for the PC version here myself. Way to tedious control mechanism on the console side IMO.

[Ka_Feosh]

well, my system could handle it if it had an AGP or PCI-E slot. Man I wish I weren't in such a hurry to get a new one back when my old system croaked (I was quite broke at the time). More WoW it is.

*cries the sad cry and saves for a 360*

[Atorak]

Wow, my first news post. :)

Unfortunately, I have no idea which version I'll buy, still! I'd love to play it on the 360, but the only thing holding me back is the PC mods, which I'm sure will be awesome. Although, I heard that Bethesda will make an effort to bring the "best" mods to the 360?

No doubt, for a price.

[zipR]

Windows XP required? Damn. I don't want to have to upgrade to XP just to play a game, especially with Vista around the corner.

Is programming for XP that different than for W2K? Most everything else works on either.

[Taco]

Didn't even notice that zipR, wonder if that's 100% accurate. Would be pretty lame. Maybe it's just a QA thing.

[TRiLoGY]

I just noticed on play.com that the Oblivion release date has been put back a month to 07/04/2006 (04/07/2006 US Date format) :(

[Frogleg Special]

I'm ready for PC version.

[Steele Johnson]

Typical system requirements:

"It will run fairly well with a top-of-the-line gaming machine, but it will run like shit and be unplayable at the minimum specs. If you have a machine that's somewhere in between, it will probably run like shit but you'll still be able to play it."

[bapenguin]

I just meet the recommended requirements, but I know it's not gonna run how I want it to run (at 1600x1200). 360 Version first for me and then when I do my upgrade late summer, early fall I'll go to the PC version for the mods.

[Mortis]

My PC is well equipped and would run the game fine, but I am buying it for the 360. Chillin on the couch/game chair in front of my HDTV with a wireless controller just owns. As for the whole "PC version will sell more than the 360" issue I don't think there are even enough 360's out there for it to outsell the PC version at this point. (total systems+people who will buy the game) Still there is a about 1.5 months to go if the rumored release is true, what I do predict is that it will be the bestselling 360 title this year.

[PIPBoy3000]

AMD 3500+, check.
NVIDIA 7800 XT, check.
1 GB memory, check.

It sounds like I'll be enjoying this game in all its graphical glory.

[dotbomb]

I'm with ya PIPBoy3000...

4400 dual core and 7800 GT

Honestly though we all knew this game was going to be a hog on the PC. I'm suprised at how low the minimum required specs are frankly. But as most surmised my hunch is it will run like crap at those levels. For the rest this is an Xbox 360 system seller.

[Echani]

CPU .. just about. Graphics, RAM, others well within limits. This was gonna be the game that I bought a 360 for, and now it looks like I won't need to :)

[Librum]

Yeah, I meet or exceed the recommended system requirements - just upgraded the memory and the CPU last month.

And at this point, were I to buy it for the 360, I'd be buying a 360 just to play Oblivion (not that I could actually buy a 360 at the moment, even if I wanted to), so that wouldn't make any sense. I'm ready to buy a 360 when it has games I want and that I can't get on the PC.

[baz]

I'm above the reccomended, so I'm grabbing this for PC. I'm sure it will be enjoyable on the 360 as well though. It's just that the PC version will no doubt cost half as much and have more accessible mods.

[Felonous]

I'll be buying the 360 version, play the fck outa it. Then about 6-9 months later I'll upgrade the PC and get the PC version along with the first expansion pack, plus download all the cool mods.

I already have a AMD 64 3800+ w/2GB RAM and Nvidia 6800 GT that I built last year (http://doomcomputer.blogspot.com), but I'd like a build a new Windows Media Center machine to tie into the 360 and stream video.

[Phanto]

So.. this game will be putting my Lorena Rojas in action...again :cool:

[goc_sin]

Recommended:

3 Ghz Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent processor
1 GB System RAM
ATI X800 series, Nvidia GeForce 6800 series, or higher video card
Minimum System Requirements:


This is all that is needed for the recommended system...?? Here I was thinking I would have to have some uber system. My computer eats specs like this for breakfast. :)

[Hizawky]

I don't even meet the minimum requirements. But that goes for most other games on the market right now, and I still manage to play those (Call of Duty 2 with near maxed graphics)

I think my ATI 9700pro video card is from the future.

[Hizawky]

I did a poll on the official forums, about 70% of the 100 or so polled are getting the PC version, it's going to out sell the 360 version by a landslide, I'm sure.

That being said, I have a 6600GT, 1Gig RAm, and a 2600+ AthalonXP. While I think I have a decent system (and am upgrading to a San Diego 64 w/ 7800GT later this year) I'm getting this on the 360. If I'm still enjoying it or want to play some of the user mods once I upgrade, I'll buy it again from the bargin bin.

I too did a poll at the Democratic National Convention about which candidate they were going to vote for in the 2004 elections. John Kerry had a near unanimous vote. He is going to win the election by a landslide.

[Yeti2005]

CVG had an interview with the Bethesda software guys. Something interesting to note was the following:

CVG: Will there be different features or limitations in the Xbox 360 version?
Carter: We are working to make the two versions as close to identical as possible. The Xbox 360 version should be visually identical to a PC running with all the visual options turned to maximum. PC users will have more options to turn down certain visuals to better accommodate older hardware setups. The only thing the Xbox 360 version will lack is the Elder Scrolls Construction Set for modding. It simply isn't possible to offer on a console.

If that's truly the case then I'm going with the 360 version because it'll cost more to get my PC up to snuff and I'm not "hardcore" about the mods.

[Atorak]

I'll be buying the 360 version, play the fck outa it. Then about 6-9 months later I'll upgrade the PC and get the PC version along with the first expansion pack, plus download all the cool mods.

I'm with you Felonous, and considering how detailed the entire world of Oblivion is (except for shadows that is, ahem), I don't expect any good mods to hit the net for at least 6 months.

[Kyle Jones]

My God... I just upgraded my computer, and it'll just be powerful for the recommended specs for Oblivion? Yikes!

[Mister Pie]

Well, guess I won't be able to play for about 2 years.

[BleedTheFreak]

Riveting. Truly.

I think you missed the purpose of this bit of information.

[Mav]

Yea that dvd-only is gonna kill a good portion of their sales. Sure dvd roms are cheap and inexpensive these days, but for those of us that don't have them we aren't going to go drop more money on a drive just to use a game.

And personally, I'd only use the dvd rom just for this one game. Sure plenty of other games have dvd versions and many more in the future will too, but as long as cd-rom is still supported I will choose it over dvd. No, I won't use a dvd rom to watch dvd's either, that's what my stand-alone dvd player that's hooked up to my tv is for.

Too bad really, I was looking forward to Oblivion. Guess I'll have to pass on it. Damn shame.

[net7runner]

Any idea what an AMD 2600+ (2.1GHZ) is eqivalent to in Intel-speak?

2.6 GHz (sorta...more like 2.8 for games). For a while AMD tried to make the number of their CPUs relate to the closest-performing P4.

Yikes, stuck in the 90's there fella?

[Taco]

Most of the Dells I've seen over the past 5 years have been DVD based. I think CD-Rom's are finally in the minority of systems that have a chance of running this game.

[joruussuun]

Well I preordered the PC version quite a while ago (I wanted the Construction Set) and am happy to report that I meet the recommended specs! (Athlon 3500+/X800XT/1GB)
Now I wonder what resolution they tested that 'recommended' setup...?

Um. To run this game at those specs on a PC, just about everyone will either need to upgrade their PC, buy a new PC, or have upgraded their PC recently. My guess is that at the VERY MINIMUM people have spent/will spend $200-$300 to get it to run. If you do so, but don't want to spend the extra $16-$25 on a DVD drive to go with it, then I have no sympathy.

[Atorak]

I'd love to see the other specs on Mav's machine, because I think this is a good point. No DVD drive? There's probably a good chance you don't meet the other specs as well...

Hell, i'll send you one, I've probably got one or two just sitting in a closet.

[MasterKwan]

There's no reason the 360 version couldn't support the mouse and keyboard. Hell, I used a PC keyboard when I registered for Live. It's just a question of the developer supporting it.

[Phades]

There's no reason the 360 version couldn't support the mouse and keyboard. Hell, I used a PC keyboard when I registered for Live. It's just a question of the developer supporting it.

Or of Microsoft ALLOWING the developer to support it.... which they won't.

[kokyunage]

I wonder if it will support Dual-Core?

[MasterKwan]

You know this for a fact Phades? Or is this just forum fodder?

[Suicidal ShiZuru]

Im suprised no one complained that it takes a massive 4.6 gigs! If youre stuck with a CD drive only then I would assume you still have a 20gig hard drive from your ten year old E-Machine. Hell I have dual DVD durners and even those are cheap. Go spend around $10 for a cheap DVD rom...

[Taco]

I wonder if it will support Dual-Core?

They said some of the 360 code works with dual core CPUs and will give you a boost. Not sure how much.

[torrefaction]

They said some of the 360 code works with dual core CPUs and will give you a boost. Not sure how much.

I believe they actually said there are some pretty significant gains to be had. I think in particular load times are affected. Ooh...a Quote!

Gavin Carter: "The game’s code takes advantage of the multithreaded nature of the Xbox 360 and multithreaded PCs to improve just about every aspect of the game. The primary function is to improve framerates by off-loading some work from the main thread to the other processors. We do a variety of tasks on other threads depending on the situation – be it sound and music, renderer tasks, physics calculations, or anything else that could benefit. Loading also gets spread across hardware threads to aid in load times and provide a more seamless experience for the player."

[GodFather]

I heard that they cut back on the graphics for the pc. does anyone know if the 360's version is going to have better graphics compared to the pcs? I have top of the line pc to max out the settings and would prefer to play the pc version, but if theres going to be more eye candy on the 360 Im gonna go with that. Anyone hear any details with the difference of the two?

[torrefaction]

I heard that they cut back on the graphics for the pc.


I have another awesome quote for you, courtesy of Joystiq, courtesy of Gaming 360.


Oblivion's executive producer, Todd Howard: "Again, it depends on their setup. If they have the absolute latest PC with a video card that is fully shader model 3.0 compatible and a giant HD monitor, they're about the same. The question is, can they get all of that for $399? And does it let them play Geometry Wars? That game rules."

*EDIT* The HDTV is the crux of it. The 360 is so cool. I hope the PS3 is even on par (whether or not it tops it.). If it is, console gamers are in for some good times.

[net7runner]

The HDTV is the crux of it (Note, this is not an attack on the quotee, it just reminded me of something)
[begin troll]
Hmmm...so you're saying I should spend $2,000 on an HDTV + $399 for an Xbox360? Or, I could...you know, buy a 7800 GTX (~$450), an AMD X2 4600+ ($575), 2 GB of RAM ($250), and a nice Shuttle case ($400) for a little more than half that? Riiiight...
[/troll]

I'm sure if you already have a sweet HDTV then this is great, but I already have a sweet computer, so any arguments along the lines of "OMG PCs r DED, 360 SO MUCH cheepar!" or "CONSOLES SUCKlol go get a real cmpooter" are just ways of bragging about how you made the right choice and everyone is screwed. LOL I R SMART>

Ummm, a giant HD monitor? Yea, we all use HD TVs for monitors right? Sounds to me like they are trying to spin it in favor of the 360. I don't really care what this guys says, but he sure as hell can't say it'll look about the same if the PC is running 1600x1200 8xAF/AA on a VGA/LCD monitor.

EDIT: I mean, who the hell would waste their money on a top of the line rig to play on a limited HDTV spec?

[SMES]

Ummm, a giant HD monitor? Yea, we all use HD TVs for monitors right?

That was a pretty blatant pro-360 quote from Oblivion's producer, wonder which company is sending his kids through college?

Also it's been repeated ad nauseum, but I must note that it's not neccisary to spend $2000 on an HDTV. My brother bought one for our house and it was a great quality tube HDTV, 32 inch Samsung (I think it's 32) for like $700. TV pricing sways and fluctuates even faster than the PC market sometimes.

What? Your computer meets all the minimum specs but it DOESN'T have a DVD drive? What kind of minimum spec computer (1 gig ram? Modern P4 proc?) doesn't have a DVD drive?

Edit: Noticed that the min spec is 512 MB Ram, 1 Gig for reccomended. Still, I'd think you could just plop down the 20 bucks for a DVD drive if you already have everything else.

[Thenetcase]

My specs are several times better than those requirements. I'll be ok. ;)

Where in your price factoring did you include the price of the screen? As far as to get right to gaming, with the equivalent screen size, it is cheaper. I have a pretty decent computer as well, minus the graphics card. AMD X2 4200+, 1 GB Ram, and a Antec P180 case. I decided to keep the computer audio since I was going to buy a 360. I've got an X600, which right now is enough to run FEAR pretty well, given my computer.

Regardless, price is a consideration. To get the equivalent experience on computers is significantly more expensive. You still have to buy the HDTV, to really get it. It really is a HUGE difference, and it really does make all the difference in the world to have your real stereo system handling the audio. This is all stuff MOST people have. I don't want to have to buy a triple core computer, to keep pace with the 360. I don't see the need. All I was saying, is that I hope the PS3 is at least as good. It'll be awesome if it is. PC gaming is, in the long term, probably dead. Specialized gaming devices will be where it's at...no other way to provide VR :cool:

anyone else just have their eyebrows shoot up in to their hairline after reading the rec?

He might just have been talking about screen size, not screen resolution.

[CptTripps]

Pentium D 840, 2 Gigs DDR2 and 2x78000GTX in SLI on a raptor HDD, I think that should push anything needed.

But... XBOX 360 at 720p or 1080i on my 46" HDTV would look plenty good i'm sure and I do love the "gamin on a couch with a wireless controller" idea. It's not ALL about resolution to make games look good anymore anyway, it's about AA\AF and per pixel effects which I'm guessing maxed out would tax most computers out there trying to run ES IV at 1600x1200. 720p on 360 is 1280x720 with everything maxed to the.... max, It will surely look amazing on both. Buy it for whatever suits you best.

Me, I have the needed PC and an HDTV. But I have no 360 as of yet so for now I go with PC.

[Groo]

It would cost be more to upgrade my computer to than it would to buy another X360...

[Taco]

Pentium D 840, 2 Gigs DDR2 and 2x78000GTX in SLI on a raptor HDD, I think that should push anything needed. Alright, I've stayed out of this discussion because playing it on the 360 so you can save some cash if perfectly valid.

Alright, I've stayed out of this discussion because playing it on the 360 so you can save some cash if perfectly valid.

Heh, well I would definitely lean towards PC and always will even if my specs were not up to par. I love the mods mostly. But I am a fan of consoles, and now that they can push HD with mucho effects enabled, I just think either would be enjoyable. But yeah, out my farkin mind indeed, PC it will be.
