IGN have just posted up the first handson impressions for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.

Quote:

The PS3 version of Oblivion isn't a simple port of the game either, although players who have picked up the 360 version will be very familiar with the control scheme. For one thing, the PS3 version has been optimized to take advantage of the Cell processor and hardware that the system offers. As a result, the game runs a lot faster than the 360 build. Entering dungeons or buildings results in a load of 3-5 seconds, compared to the 7-10 seconds or longer for the 360 version of the game. Similarly, the amount of framerate drops or hitches that cropped up in the wilderness as you accessed a new area on the 360 have been substantially reduced on the PS3 version. There is a plan to completely eradicate these issues as the game nears release, as well as fixing a number of bugs that were present in the other builds. Kiss the item duplication glitch goodbye.

the main quest isnt actually that long you could do it in a weekend,what takes up most of the time is leveling up,and getting better weapons/armor,but whatever,this game is ****ing awesome,i wont get this for the ps3 because ive already got it for the 360.
