    Can anyone recommend any really good games that are like Oblivion?

    I'm thinking maybe Fallout New Vegas or Two Worlds II? I've never played the first Two Worlds and only played a little bit of Fallout 3 so does that matter?

    Any suggestions on other games would be great too.

    Borderlands?

    Borderlands, Fallout 3, New vegas.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,577 ✭✭✭Dante


    Fallout 3 and New Vegas definitely.

    Borderlands is great but not really the same in terms of the RPG elements of Two Worlds and Fallout.

    Maybe dragon age: Origins with all the dlc trimmings, it's a very good game but I can't say the same about Dragon Age 2, Mass Effect is well worth a look if you haven't played it.

    Try to get the Fallout3 GOTY edition. With all 5 game Add-on packs included,it makes an already huge game huge(r) :D Pure brilliance.

    Fallout 3 definitely one of my all time favourite Xbox 360 games


  • Registered Users Posts: 710 ✭✭✭TheReverend


    Fallout 3 GOTY
    Fallout: New Vegas + DLC
    I know you are asking for xbox games but you could get morrowind for PC.

    Lost Odyssey is really great
    Also fallout 3 is far better than new vegas (IMO)
    Final fantasy 13 isnt bad either, but takes some getting into

    All pretty good value on zavvi.com too

    I got Fallout 3 GOTY and Red Dead Redemption. playing Red Dead at the moment!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,058 ✭✭✭shuffles03


    Nearly bought Borderlands but wasn't sure what the story was like. I could be wrong but all the YouTube videos I watched just showed shooting and no story.

    Also nearly picked up Enslaved.

    Enslaved is a great game.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,058 ✭✭✭shuffles03


    Enslaved is a great game.

    Yeh, I loved Heavenly Sword and I've heard it's even better than that. I think i'll pick it up after Red Dead.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,204 ✭✭✭Kenny_D


    Get Enslaved. I'd been meaning to get it for ages based on reviews and I popped it on saturday and finished it late last night. Absolutely brilliant game, great voice acting, characters, story, lots of fun and can be got for about €12 from zavvi. I'm gonna go back and play through it again on hard during the week and finish up a few collection achievements :)

    Won't be around, heading of travelling in October. So many great games are coming out while I'm gone!:mad:

    red dead is actually very similar to oblivion in a lot of ways imo, even tho it's not a rpg it has the immersion and a huge world to explore

    when you get into it vegas is very good, the dlc especially is a load of fun but there's not much time before skyrim comes out so youre better off getting fallout3 goty which will be cheaper and does the job

    New Vegas > Fallout 3, they went back to proper falout stuff, like the brotherhood just being dicks explained why people went back to caps and it was back in the west :)

    Also FF13 was the worst FF game to date even worse than X-2


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,058 ✭✭✭shuffles03


    Red Dead great fun so far. Haven't started any missions yet. I spent about an hour last night just going around shooting horsemen and then capping their horses in the face! A bit sadistic but I've never laughed so hard!
