Oblivion: Game of the Year Edition Ships Today

ic_eldergame01_narrowweb__300x462,0.jpg

I suffer from a disease I like to call Gamer Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I neurotically pick up every item, loot every corpse, max every stat, and complete unnecessary quest. Futile as it sounds, I make an attempt to clear out every possible bit of content laid out by the developers. As one might imagine, I have a special relationship with a certain game I like to call Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. No game has brought me more endless hours of tedious collecting than this title. The game is gorgeous, expansive and has enough content to turn me into a sobbing child while I needlessly collect enough skulls to make the Vatican catacombs proud. Are you one of the unlucky few who have not experienced this game? You are in luck sister.

Today is the official launch day for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Game of the Year Edition. Included in this special edition copy is just about everything anyone can possibly want; A full version of Elder Scrolls IV, the expansion pack Shivering Isles as well as the downloadable addition Knights of the Nine.

Shivering Isles is about as much as you can ever hope for in an expansion. The package provides an additional plane to explore, additional quest, items, incredients, recipes, spells; all the stuff in the previous title that kept me toiling for hours in this already expansive game. While not directly a full fledged expansion, Knights of the Nine does add a considerable amount of back story to Ayleid ruins scattered through out the game. As well as the extended story, this upgrade includes another noble faction and some additional side quests.

The PC and Xbox 360 revisions have been shipped to stores today. Unfortunately for PS3 owners, their version is not expected until some time next month. This is a must have title if you have a couple of weeks that you simply do not want back.

Picking up the PS3 version when it ships, since I've got that version anyway (and will be giving my "regular" edition to the ex).

This game took up most of my weekend.
