Continuing Bethesda's tradition of delivering more than what is normally expected out of a game, Oblivion is an outstanding example of superior everything.
You may want to inform your friends and family before purchasing this game. The reason for this is clearly obvious; you will not be reachable for weeks, if not months, once you start your adventure in this fourth game of the series.…

You can find an argonian at the deadrick shrines, and in mages halls. Just stab them, and then yield right away. Thats it!

Back on the topic of game mods, there's one coming out that I'd really like to get. In fact it's helping me resist the temptation to buy a 360, and instead wait until I can afford a computer beefy enough to play the PC version of Oblivion.
Of course the nature of this particular mod will only go to show just how nerdy I am: it does nothing more than update the covers on all the books in the game.
Now that's what I call cool.

Oh wow, that is totally worth buying a PC for!

Heh heh. Do I detect a tiny hint of sarcasm? Well, at least I still have a month or two to save up for the liquid-cooled super-computer required to run such mods, which probably transform Oblivion into an even bigger hog of RAM and processing power than it already is straight out of the box.

This game is absolutely fantastic. Addressing the vampire issuse, I have the same problem. Fortunately, I don't mind being a vampire. I gave the woman the ashes and the dagger, but she won't take any of the other ingredients and I don't even know which ones I'm supposed to give her. Oh well, still a great game and being a vampire certainly has its perks. If you don't want to die in the sun, just keep feeding! You don't have to reset the game, just feed on sleeping people and the sun won't harm you.

You could also buy the Vile Lair, which has more perks than getting rid of vampirism. As a matter of fact, it is divine if you are a vamp. It is also the cheapest of the episodic content, at 150 MP.

This is my second oblivion character, and unlike the first, I decided to finish the main quests. I beat the game, completed the fighters guild, assasins guild, mages guild, and im waaaaaay far in the thieves guild.But yeah im really bummed on the whole vampire quest issue myself. I'm having the same problems with the two bundles of bloodgrass. I read a post from a guy that said that the bloodgrass has to be picked by you and not bought from a store, I tried that but it doesnt work. I really dont want to be a vamp anymore and it sucks cause im far in the game and i guess im going to have to restart.

Maj just buy Enter the Vile Lair download rather than restarting.
35 - ujg
Enter the Vile Lair? but i guess thats just for the PC version, right?
36 - Ken Edwards
Nope. Vile Lair is 150 Microsoft Points on XBLM. Please refer to Comment #31.

This has to do with the VAMPIRE CURE on the 360. I've done everything I need got the two cures cured myself. The problem is I can't get the other cure to the count. He's in a secret room and the lizard woman leaves me hanging. This has put my main quest on hold as well. It's the last city I need troops from. I know I'm not the only one that has this problem. Thanks

Om Having The Problem With The Witch Not Taking My Bloodgrass For The Vamp Cure. . You Mean I Have To Start The Hole Game Over And Give Her The Ingredients In Order?
40 - Ken Edwards
Everyone seems to be having problems giving the witch the ingredients. I did it the first time, and it worked fine for me.
You could always buy the cheap Marketplace download that will cure you. That or just play the entire game as a Vamp, as it gives you many great attributes.

ok not trying to get off topic but does any1 kno how many oblivion gates there are in total???
42 - Tyree
oo and if you get the vampires disease you can simply cure by praying at the alter at any city, Chorrals' chapple is meant to cure stuff like this, unless you get the vamp disease from the dark brother hood quest. then you need to do the quest. oo and if you do get the disease and you DO want to be a vamp wait 3 days then sleep.
43 - kyle
people, the witch dont accept bloodgrass if you have completed the main quest line because it is tainted or somet... just thought i'd held you all!!!

Call them and they will walk you through steps to try and solve the problem.

SCREW NOT BE A VAMPIRE
TRAVEL AT NIGHT BABY THATS THE ONLY WAY TO GO! WOO!!!
FORGET THE CURE
sry im a bit hyper
50 - Matt
Im annoyed cuz i did the main quest at level 2, and im a vamp and it's getting annoying (plus i want to do the gold glitch), and the witch wont accept my bloodgrass so i might make a new character and just have vamp as a main 1 ¬_¬
51 - SIRHC
Matt - You feeding on people before you go talk to a NPC? They dont like it when you are a level 4 Vampire, if you feed on a sleeping person, they dont even notice you are a walker of the night.
I Keep trying that (A) Button thing, and it doesnt seem to be working for me. Its not running very slow, its just when i go to save that slows down, so i want to clear it before it gets worse, i know thats only the tip of the iceberg.
52 - Coy
ya about the vampire bloodgrass thing i read somewhere that you can just connect to xbox live and download something that bethesda added that fixes it
53 - Coy
but im having the same problem and i havent bought xbox live yet so i need to buy it quick

Game patches do not require a Gold account. Do you have broadband? Just get a Silver account. You get a free one month trial of Gold on a new account anyways.
