Bethesda Softworks is sitting pretty high with the announcement of its hit Oblivion for XBox 360 and PC which has now accounted for 13% of PC game sales in the first week of it release and has also become the fastest selling game ever on the Xbox 360, totaling 1.7 million copies sold.

The storyline of Oblivion is what one expect from a classical role-playing game. The player must find a successor to the throne as the previous emperor has been assassinated. The task is complicated by the periodic appearance of demons that attack towns across Oblivion's world, Tamriel.
Oblivion features high resolution graphics, including high-dynamic range lighting and highly detailed characters. In addition the game has open-ended game play where can interact, rob and help other characters to their hearts content. A complex AI system dubbed "Radiant AI" by Bethesda, controls when, where and how non-player characters perform actions like sleeping, talking and even stealing.
Personally I just installed the game on my PC and have also been sucked into the world of Oblivion.
