GameStop: Oblivion (PSP) release on April 16...again

Posted Mar 11, 2007 at 5:56AM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: PSP Tags: Bethesda, Bethesda Softworks, GameStop

This is peculiar. Just a few days after video game retailer GameStop had The Elder Scrolls Travels: Oblivion RPG by Bethesda Softworks for the PSP dated for a September 3 release, the online store once again makes an about-face, placing Oblivion back squarely on April 16.

Confusing? Yeah verily, dear readers, although we're sure the Oblivion fans are relieved with this latest date swap. On the other hand, there is much speculation how this game will perform, given that past reports have stated players will be missing out on the game's famous free-roaming gameplay, and will instead have to contend with 10 levels worth of dungeon-crawling as they combat the Daedric threats heralded by King Tamriel's (aka Captain "Love-Doctor" Picard) untimely death.

It depends on your taste, really - some people would have preferred a more linear approach to the game, while other RPG fans felt Oblivion's meat was more in the side quests and the travelling, as compared to its central (and disagreeably short) plot. Of course, the GameStop release date is still open to change, with other gaming sites still listing Oblivion as a "Spring 2007" release and Bethesda's home site keeping mum. Just stay sharp for further news on a release date.

This story sucks? This story rocks!

thought it was vaporware...

First PSP multi-umd game ? XD

Why the hell can't game editors understand that PSP != PC portable ?! Damn, next we'll get the warcraft series and WOW on psp...

I want colourfull & cute games for my psp, REAL games MENT TO BE PLAYED ON A PORTABLE, not another cheap PC/home console adaptation.

I'm sick of it.

# It is a different game, silly. — Guest 2007-03-11 12:07

This game isn't really Oblivion, it does indeed has it's similarities, but this version focuses on dungeons, and shouldn't be left out of your lil' brain. Also, handy-dandy for me as this game gets released on my Birthday.

# Pathetic — Guest 2007-03-11 13:34

You're a failure as a human being, RPG games are the best games there are, but this however will be yet another dungeon crawler.. I'm deeply dissapointed to you Bethesda, I expected more from you.

# ... — Guest 2007-03-11 13:37

You're disgusting, go play your oh-so-cute Loco Roco all by yourself and have fun. Also why would this be multi-umd game? Like said, it'll be a short dungeon crawling game, won't need that much space just for that.

# Morrowind — Guest 2007-03-11 22:21

Bethesda why don't you make a port of morrowind, a complete port, it would surely fit on a umd and the grafic would be even better than the pc version.

# hmm — Guest 2007-03-12 04:49

Yeah, let's all be noobs and bash a game when nobody has even played it.

# Not happening — Guest 2007-03-12 08:12

Morrowind pushed the Xbox to its limits; I don't think a PSP port will happen anytime soon.

# g — PSPZorZ 2007-03-12 10:55

Is this gonna be infrastructure?

# cool — Guest 2007-03-12 11:11

Those screens look awsome amin. Although no free roming is a big loss, we should just wait and see if its good.

# WTF?!?!? — Guest 2007-04-07 10:01

no free roam.... bethesda you have dissapointed me... now i have nothing to look forward to till elder scrolls 5 lol

# :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( — Guest 2007-04-09 06:28
