For all intents and purposes, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is the best RPG experience currently available on the PS3, but that doesn't mean it's completely flawless. The combat is by far the game's weakest aspect, as you're basically limited to simply blocking and swinging your weapon. Sure, magicka spells change things up a bit, but the combat system isn't what's going to keep you enthralled from start to finish. You're going to become so involved in building your character, solving every quest you come across and exploring every nook and cranny Tamriel has to offer. There's so much gaming potential, it's almost sick. You can join different factions and work your way to the top, such as in the Knights of the Nine addition to the PS3 version, where you can choose to walk down the path of justice or cruelty. Hell, you can even become "diseased" and turn into a vampire! Every time you think you've seen everything this game has to offer, you'll come across something new. If there's anything PS3 owners desperately need right now, it's a game with a lot of longevity to help make it through a slow spring and summer. PS3 owners, welcome to Tamriel!
