Morrowind was on Xbox so I am sure that Oblivion will be on XBox 2. The problem is that I buy Nintendo consoles(for the franchises and to support Nintendo) and my comp will not be able to handle this cutting-edge graphixs! If anyone knows(i know it hasn't been announced yet) if this game will be on another system other than Xbox 2 then can u plz tell me?;)

I'm pretty sure it's coming out on the PS3... But don't boycott the other consoles! Buy a Gamecube. Then buy the others. Still supports Nintendo.

It will be PC first, then X-Box. I have not heard plans of any other console release, but I do know that Beth intend to release Oblivion on as many platforms as possible.
That was pretty much stated in Ashley Cheng's interview on WarCry.

It's possible, but it all depends on the dynamic Nintendo are trying to push for their next console.
It's no secret that the Gamecube was pushed at a younger audience, and hence why it would NEVER have games like Gran Turismo or GTA.
Nintendo could very well broaded their target audience with their next generation console, but its touch and go. I would not expect Nintendo to have published a gamecube port of morrowind given their current dynamic... even if it were possible.
But yeah, games like morrowind have never really been at home on the console anyway, It surprises me enough that they would even bring out XB2/PS3 version as it is. Sorry, but I wouldn't get my hopes up...

But what is oblivion? Is it an elder scrolls game ie the fourth in the series? is it an expansion?
What is it? what is it? Morrowind blew me away I'd never heard of and then - wow - I played it for six months straight at the expence of employment and life in general.

It's the fourth chapter in the Elder Scrolls RPG series. It's a totally new game from Morrowind (i.e. not an expansion) and it's not yet released.

If by 'younger audience' you mean people that aren't adolescent boys who want CARS and BREASTS instead of adults who can appriecate gameplay beyond graphical style, can take joy from games and don't mind colour and fun instead of DARK BLACK ANGST

Ha! No. Well, yes. But also no. Mostly a maybe, with a small part 'stop stereotyping.' Gosh. I'm one of those adolescent boys who... well... I don't like cars anyway. I don't like dark angsty games either. It's too hard to see things. I hate squinting at the screen :erg:
The GameCube was, in my opinion, targeted at younger gamers from 8 to 12, with games like Paper Mario, Spongebob Square Pants: The Movie, and Pokemon Stadium or Colliseum or whatever they're at now. Admittedly, these games are fun (for the most part.) But many of the GameCube's games have a child-like quality to them, with gaudy graphics. Not to say it's for kids. You see what I'm saying.
I like the horses the best in Oblivion. Those ought to be cool. I played Sacred (a third-person RPG hack'n'slash game similar to Diablo) and you were allowed to ride horses. I got quite sentimental with my first horse, a brilliant and powerful stallion. But it died.

Obviously stereotyping. All targetting/marketing relies on it, as does saying Nintendo = Children. The Spongebob game is on all the consoles, the Mario RPG series is superb and Pokemon was great.
Plus my girlfriend hates games and has just become addicted to Warioware, thanks to dragging her into a GAME with a convienently located DS demopod.
The trouble is, games are still struggling to escape the 'toys' label. Which means they can't possibly be for adults. Which means that games are 'adult' and 'mature' if they're aimed at the sort of people who are the worst possible judges of what's mature, the aforementioned teenage boys. Or if games aren't aimed at them, then they must be for children. I'd be jolly impressed with the 8 year old that's good at Pikmin.
