Customer Review: Worth the price of PS3 itself!
I’m probably not your average “gamer”. I am a married father who owns his own company. PS3 was a christmas purchase for my 10 year old son. Someone told me about Olivion so I bought it for myself. I am ashamed to say that I am now completly addicted. The game is truely amazing; from the amazing graphics to random characters striking up conversations with you on the street. The depth of gameplay and thought that went into this epic is unbelievable! I like that you can just roam around or complete “quests”. I often get sidetracked while on a quest and I like that you can go off in a different direction and then complete the quest later. I just beat Methunes Dagon and thought the game was over but instead I have some suit of armor on order and I can still keep playing.
Customer Review: Horribly Addictive
If you’ve read any of my previous reviews (and I have no idea why you would have) you know that I traded in my 360 to get a PS3 due to the lack of time I was playing games. I bough Oblivion about a year ago for my 360, and just couldn’t get into it. I thought it was “lame”. I was probably just overwhelmed, but I digress. So about a week ago I decided to give it a go on the PS3, I don’t know why, I just did. And I must say, this is the best game I’ve ever played (not counting NHL 94). The world is HUGE, the game is completely interactive, and the depth is beyond anything I’ve ever experienced in a game. So, with just over a week of owning the game, I’ve logged about 40 hours of game play. This game makes me want to play games again. My only fear now is that every game I play in the future will be unfairly compared to this masterpiece. Pros: Beautiful graphics Huge, Open-ended game play Hours of game play Cons: Sometimes there are slow loads (if someone knows how to clear the cache on the PS3 like the 360, please inform) Horribly addictive
