It was released exactly 10 years ago. It was the first game that got me to buy the X360 and it was also the first game that made me think "now this IS next gen".

Happy birthday Oblivion! I got the PC version 10 years ago, since it ran a bit better on my old PC (6800 GT) and because the Elder-Scrolls-games were extremely modding-friendly. With my new PC later that year (8800 GTX, Core2Duo) and the second generation of mods, Oblivion started through.

The one week later released "Tomb Raider: Legend" was the opposite. My PC had no chance against the 360-graphics, so I bought the console version.

If you want to go back to Oblivion these days, a fully modded PC-version is the best option:

If you want to go back to Morrowind, the quality gap is even more striking:

The "now this IS next gen" moment I already had at launch of the Xbox 360 with PGR3, especially the Las Vegas course.
