The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Preview

IGN has put together a preview of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, after catching a demo of the Xbox 360 version at Microsoft's X05 event. An excerpt to follow:
Screaming from an adjacent cell is what you're greeted with as you stand in your own at the game's start. The prisoner from across the way is telling you how you'll never escape and other disheartening information. Soon thereafter Uriel Septim descends to your cell and demands entrance. As back up in your cell to let him pass, he and his retinue of guards, known as the Blades, unlock a secret passageway in a wall beside you. Before he enters he turns to you and claims he's seen you in his dreams. After a short interactive sequence where you're able to ask questions about where you are and what you did to land in jail, Uriel and the guards pass through the gate leaving you unharmed.
