For you Oblivion dorks: A serious bug has been uncovered in Oblivion expansion Shivering Isles, which renders the game unplayable after as little as 50 hours.

"So, until then, Bethesda suggests you do one of a few things. X360 gamers will want to make a copy of your saved game for safe keeping, and either lay off playing Shivering Isles for a few days until the problems are confirmed and addressed, or start a new character to explore the content, as others won't be affected by this."

The fix for this game-breaking bug: don't play the game. Nice work, geniuses.

I wonder if the Swami and Slomatics stickers on my guitar will make any difference to the price...

Surely they would increase the price?

 

[THRILLHO]

But with the added hassle of having to send it/meet someone to make an extra tenner? Meh.

And put up with all those fuckers that say "But I could get this for 5 euro on ebay! I'll give you 2 bucks".

I spent the entire weekend getting a cure for Vampirism. Least fun ever.

I'd hope so.

Exactly.

No but I'm sure some are familiar with whore's armour.

The whole 'cheating' DLC thing really gets my goat. No way was I paying 5 euro for a cure. I'll spend the entire weekend looking for fucking garlic. And no way am I paying 20 euro for an expansion pack that you can't trade in when you've finished it. Fuck you Bethesda!

It's done now though, I can get back to the only slightly less boring task of closing oblivion gates.

I just traded in the last of my psp and ps2 games and bought oblivion and test drive unlimited.

 

[Stan Bowles]

That's the end of your social life for a few weeks Lefty.

Got Prey and Amped 3 in the post this morning. Won't go near them till i've finished Rainbow 6 though.

 

[nofriendo]

prey is good but the multiplayer is rubbish, once i finished it it got traded back!

 

[THRILLHO]

Amped is loads of fun. Gets a bit repetitive after a while, but the story is nice and the cut-scenes are fuckin' deadly. Played the game in the rabbit costume and never got tired of it once.

It looks a bit dodge from the cover but ign gave it a great review and i got it for a tenner all in. Score!!

It looks good - closest i could see to Tony Hawk for xbox. I really wish developers would do more than just action games though, populous or settlers or something along those lines would really hit the spot.

At some point during the week of May 7, Xbox 360 owners will turn on their console and find that a new update is available for the dashboard. The timing will coincide with the launch of Games for Windows Live by no small coincidence. In total, some 1,600 changes, fixes, and updates will be applied. Most will be superficial. Few will even be noticeable. But the groundwork is being laid. In sitting down with Jerry Johnson, Xbox Live Group Program Manager, and John Rodman, Senior Product Manager for the Global Platform and Accessories Group, we got a glimpse of the immediate future and beyond. It begins with Windows Live Messenger integration.

Nah, too painful trying to type. I would do though. Probably.
