Overall, these are relatively minor faults; the only thing holding ES IV: Oblivion back from a perfect score is its disappointing tendency to freeze without warning. ES fans will be used to this and know to save frequently to ensure the loss of progress is minimal. While such occurences are frustrating, we feel it's an acceptable price to pay for the most realistic-looking and immersive RPG experience currently available.
The second is at PC Authority with no overall score:
Oblivion is a breakthrough game. An essential game. It is high art, a technological tour de force and a masterfully crafted story tale world. It's a wonderful place to be.
And the third is at Gamecell with an overall score of 9/10:
Fans of RPGs, from Morrowind to Final Fantasy, and even games like Deus Ex will enjoy Oblivion, as it is an addictive experience that can hit you like chloroform: one minute you'll be sitting happily, playing away, the next it's 2am, Oblivion's still flickering away on the telly and you wonder where the time went. You don't distinctly remember but you know it must have been good.
