Oblivion . . . not feelin the love. . .

Its just me, Im weird. But in the same way the WOW doesnt really move me neither does Oblivion. It looks amazing, plays well and was fun for a few hours, but it just isnt getting its hooks into me. I think Im just a simple person who enjoys linear gameplay more. "Heres a world, go wander, theres stuff to do as well if you want" leaves me cold and confused and lacking purpose. "This is Super Mario World, heres the start, heres the finish, have at it kiddo" has kept me engaged for 15 years! Probably why (thanks to that news article!) Shadow Of The Collossus is really working for me. "Heres a big baddie, kill it and move on to the next one till youve done all 16". Nice, linear, end in sight (however unlikely I am to ever reach it, at least it *SEEMS* achievable!) gameplay that spurs me to the next level. Let me be clear. . its not a failing of the game per se, it just doesnt appear to suit me. Ill give it a few more hours and see what happens, but right now its looking like getting traded for Mario Kart DS, Daxter or Tokobots (which just screams "BUY ME!!!") Last night of the night shifts tonight. Hopefully no more bottom feeding handbags at ten paces neighbour disputes to referee. Hopefully! Its amazing how quick they all wind their necks in when you just threaten to arrest EVERYONE whos made an allegation and counter allegation! TTFN Drewe p.s. 10,000 days frickin RAWKS! BUY BUY BUY!
