| to be fair, I've never played any of the originals. I had never been into rpg-style games, Oblivion was also the first game I played for some time, and it was the graphics and atmosphere that blew me away. That game sold me the xbox 360. I suppose it is a bit rpg-lite, but as someone who's never been familiar with the genre it's a good place to start; not too complicated, and also not too far removed from the more generic shoot em ups/smash em ups I'm more used to, > > but I always find myself going back to Oblivion: The Elder > > Scrolls IV, which was the game I first had with the xbox > > over 18mths ago, and still my favourite game ever.
