Are you serious. Why is it so expensive for xbox 360?! Ughhhhhhhhh I need a PC this is ridiculous. 6 dollars compared to $30 for the xbox....

[dtmwerks]

Sorry double post.

Saw this on reddit too and this is a "daily deal"?

So this will only last for today and never again?!?!

Can I transfer my xbox 360 save file to pc????

[zzfallens]

Well it's a deal. It's usually $30 (or $20 I forget) like the xbox but for now its $6.80. And I'm pretty sure it is for the whole week and not just today. I'm not sure about the save file thing though.

[BootySweat]

Are you serious. Why is it so expensive for xbox 360?! Ughhhhhhhhh I need a PC this is ridiculous. 6 dollars compared to $30 for the xbox....

Well, for Xbox you will always have

• Microsoft License Fee ($12)
  Replication, Packaging and Shipping (another $5 perhaps)
  Wholesaler Margin (a few $$)
  Retailer Margin (probably another $10)
  then Bethesda needs to make something on it, right?

You can always buy the Steam version now and then install it later when you have a PC or laptop that can run the game.

[VirtualWeasel]

Can I transfer my xbox 360 save file to pc????

You sure can.

Here's someone's loose description on the situation:

Yes you can. You're going to extract the savegame.dat from your, xbox save and rename it to whatever.ess and put it into the saves file, then run oblivion and there you go, works just fine.

[Xephonai]

ugh, should I buy this or the anniversay that is coming out in a week and a half for the pc? A tempting thing about the anniversay is the $10 off coupon

[BootySweat]

ugh, should I buy this or the anniversay that is coming out in a week and a half for the pc? A tempting thing about the anniversay is the $10 off coupon

it will still be cheaper to buy this on sale + skyrim because you are saving more than $10

[Xephonai]

True, does the anniversay edition come with all the small DLC stuff like the horse armor, etc?

[BootySweat]

True, does the anniversay edition come with all the small DLC stuff like the horse armor, etc?

I would imagine it comes with the same DLC as the $8.50 Steam "deluxe" version -

that would be pretty cruel to leave the DLC out of the anniversary edition

Hi, I think I may use this topic as I just bought the Deluxe edition from STEAM and is currently downloading it.
I would like to try my luck with some mods, got any recomendations? Must have mods etc, also is it easy to install or do I have to put files in folders and being generally annyoing. (for me atleast)

Will be fun to play it on the PC after playing it on the 360 for so long.
And sorry if I should have made my own topic.

A little over 6 months ago, I was in a similar situation.

Up to that time I had only used a few small mods like Vampire Aging Disabled, a body replacer, etc.

I wanted to try a new experience with Oblivion and I had read about a few overhaul mods like Oscuro's, and saw some of the amazing screens from people using OBGEv2, but it all seemed complicated to install.

I was able to get help from the official Bethesda Oblivion mods forum members, and here is what I would recommend:

1. research, look at screenshots, read comments and decide on a list of all the mods you want to try
2. based on the descriptions and install instructions, post on THIS FORUM your planned steps for installing these mods and your list of mods
3. revise install plan according to feedback from the experts
4. install

After doing exactly this, a few hours later I was playing a completely new and (to me) magical game.

Here are some of the mods that I found to be essential (I would not go back to playing Oblivion without these)

essential mods that do not change gameplay...

• 4GB patch
• OBGEv2
• ENBSeries Shaders
• Qarl's Hi Res Texture Pack
• Tamriel NPCs Revamped (finally all the NPCs will no longer be ugly)
• HGEC Body Replacer
• Elaborate Eyes
• Ren's Beauty Pack
• Bananasplit's Better Cities
• Unique Landscapes
• Oblivion Stereo Sound Overhaul
• Atmospheric Oblivion
• Symphony of Violence
• Oblivion Crash Prevention System
• Oblivion Stutter Remover
• Vampire Aging Disabled
• Windows Lighting System
• COBL Races

Essential Mod Utilities

• OBSE
• BOSS
• OBMM
• Wyre Bash
• COBL

Essential Mods That Affect Gameplay (improve balance or otherwise affect gameplay)

• Duke Patrick's SCA Combat Archery
• Duke Patrick's Basic Hypothermia
• Deadly Reflex
• Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul
• Martigen's Monster Mod
• Francesco's
• FCOM (this allows you to combine OOO, MMM, Fran's and Warcry)
• COBL Real Hunger
• COBL Real Thirst
• COBL Real Sleep Extended
• Less Annoying Magic Experience (L.A.M.E.)
• Supreme Magicka
• Thievery
• Ashes to Ashes
• Enhanced Economy

Fun Magic Mods

• Supreme Magicka
• Less Annoying Magic Experience
• Midas Magic (I don't think this one works together with the other two, but SM and LAME work fine together)

Here is a list of all the mods I have installed

OR the Deluxe edition with expansions and DLC for $8.50 if you want that : http://store.steampowered.com/app/900883

The $6.80 version is the GOTY edition, it is only missing those smaller DLC packs, but it does have KOTN and SI.

[zzfallens]

Yeah I know I own the GOTY edition. But when I had it typed at first it seemed like it only had dlc so I changed it.
