Oblivion


Bethesda and Microsoft have teamed up once again to make sure that your Christmas will be one grand and happy one -- Oblivion-wise that is.

Why? Well, Bethesda has just announced that because the feedback from their Mehrunes Razor download for Elder Scrolls: Oblivion (PS3, Xbox360, PC) has been very good, they're giving Xbox Live users a sweet treat this Christmas: the Mehrunes Razor content will be downloadable for free BUT for a limited time only.

Here's how Bethesda's press release goes:

Starting this Friday, Dec. 22, Xbox 360 gamers will be able to download Mehrunes Razor for free from Xbox Live. This offer is only for a limited time...from Dec. 22 to Dec. 31. On Monday, Jan. 1 it will go back to its standard price. So be sure to log on to Xbox Live beginning this Friday and download your free copy of Mehrunes Razor! Happy Holidays from Bethesda Softworks.


Awwww, now ain't that sweet? Christmas just keeps getting better and better, eh? And who said Christmas is just for kids, huh? *winks*

Just like the real world

I know this isn't sweet news to people who just shelled out to buy this. It's like the real world though, where you buy something and a week later find it went on sale at another store, or got reduced in price. Some places have return policies but some don't. Sometimes you get screwed sometimes you don't. Shoot, I can't remember how many games I bought at full price only to find them going on sale a couple months later or seeing Fry's run an ad after I bought it. I take this as a nice gesture to get a few more people that might not have bought an expansion to look back at the game. fritzilla

Good for me.

I guess this will be good for me (even though I will beat it very quickly). I haven't got it yet and the only DLC I have is the wizard's tower & the observatory space thing (in mage guild). Luckly, I got my character to jump as high as a building with a single leap (might get hurt a bit sometimes when coming down) and I also got super strength (1 hit brings EVERYBODY down even without the soul sword). Then I also have invisibility on constantly and i'm a warrior, not assassin. These were all done by the ring glitches before the patch was out and luckly the patch didn't fix it so I have a super human/ghost character. lol

Is it Halo 3 or Halo 2.5...?

Microsoft which is so retarded is so pathetic. How can they name the new console Xbox 360 when its right and proper name is Xbox 2? Even a 5 year old kid knows the number next to 1 is 2. Not some 359 after. Anyone can figure out their intention; if it’s named Xbox 2 then their new console will look bad and old right next to PlayStation 3s on the same shelf at the same store. Ms’ intention is exactly same as the intentions of pathetic guys and girls in the countries called North America. Most white guys and girls wear high boots and shoes which are like 10 cm tall because they want to look taller when actually they are not. MS’ run by white people, so the company’s policy is pathetic just like the people in it. A game called Halo 3 which looks even worse than Craps of War which was released more than 1 year before is the best thing Xbox 360 can offer. This is what the spokesman of MS said in an article. He said Halo 3 will be the best game among all X360 games, and I think he’s right because Crapbox 360 obviously cannot run better and more advanced games than that *****. Halo 2 must have been named Halo 1.5 because the differences between the 1st one and the 2nd one are so minimal. Those white people who work for MS (Bungie is a subsidiary of MS, mor+nic kids.) are so pathetic, they had to choose the name Crapalo 2 instead of Crapalo 1.5. Now, a game called Halo 3 hasn’t got enough upgrades from Halo 2, and this 3rd game isn’t too different from its former one; therefore, Halo 3’s righteous name must be Halo 2, not some cr+p and bullsh+t like Halo 3. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Recently, the biggest news has been the 3 missing climbers who were found dead on the mountain. Kids, who are addicted to games, listen. If you play games more than 1 hour per any given day and more than 3 days every single week, then you are game addicts. Game addicts’ future is just same; when you become older, you will be classified as 3rd rated stupid people who occupy the lowest ranks of the society. I have to give an example for you stupid folks. Let’s say you’re a high schooler. You see some smart kids in your class, and you kind 3rd raters call them nerds. In 10 years, you will be cleaning their office rooms as janitors and earn $8 per hour when those nerds earn $600 per hour as lawyers or doctors or something. I’m not just talking about the amount of money. I can only compare the qualities of lives if you want to argue with me. I have seen the photos of those mountain climbers and I’m 100% sure that they look like some sort of addicted people. Their faces look like some drug addicts or alcoholics’ faces. Perhaps, they’re just game addicts; game addicts are almost same as other addicts. Kids, if you played too much game then your brains are screwed up; you can't think logically or reasonably with clear minds. Experts say these climbers must have brought about 4 days of food for the climbing; however, these game addicted mor+nic lifeless climbers only brought 1 day of food; then they lost. These 3rd rated climbers thought that they were stronger and more powerful than they actually are because their gaming heroes like Gordon Freeman can jump and run very well, and then these addicts think they can imitate their skills and moves.

You sound completely ignorant

To "is it Halo 3 or 2.5" You must be seriously uneducated. Your grammar is absolutley terrible and you crazy rantings have no backing at all. Do you even know what your talking about. 1st....Most Res Evil games were almost the exact same other than the characters, setting, and weapons. Most games that come in as a series stick to similar philosophies because thats what gamers expect from that certain game. So what are you talking about regarding Halo. Halo fans want a Halo game not some completely changed alternate. 2nd...."The mountain kids are addicted to games"...you ignorant ass...Do you have any basis for this claim at all? "if you play more than an hour a day for more than 3 times a week you addicted"..You must be crazy. Some of the smartest minds in the worlds are computer tech's and programmer's...and some probably play alot of games. Think before you go off on a rant of this magnitude. You're making yourself sound like a moron. Seriously...Think about it?? ps. "game addicts occupy the lowest ranks of society".... what are you? A statistition....You have no comprehension at all regarding who occupy the lowest ranks of society.. You are an ignorant, uneducated fool.

Response to "Is it Halo 3 or Halo 2.5"

That is so racist. People are talking about racism towards minorities. Well what about whites? Everybody thinks whites are pampered people who hate all no-whites. If minorities would stop acting that way, they might gain a better foothold in society. Additionally, I am one of those "nerds"; I have had straight A's all through high school, and by your standards am also a recovering gaming addict. PS: Being a gaming addict is better than being a useless-posting-on-a-news-site addict
