Well you can mix new potions and you get to name them, however, I dont know about the name sticking as I have neither played it on live nor online.

I heard something like there would be a system where you could create potions by mixing them and then give them your own name, and for when playing on the online network whatever name you give it will stick if you are the first person to create the mixture. That concept sounded really cool. I wonder if that was only going to be for xbox live.

From what I have played, and what I have read, they aren't really that similar. The reviews to gameplay that is.

Yeah, the graphics aren't Oblivion by any means.

I mean, it is kind of boring after a while, but it is fun for a good while too.

The fighting system... you have 3 quick slot spells that you can cast, it sucks that you can't quick slot more because there are like 75 spells or something like that. You spend skill points to increase your skills in magic or stealth or stealing or stealth skill or with a bow or many other combat tricks. I never really used them, but that is because I was playing a mage character. Every character can be everything, which is somewhat disappointing, but in some fashions cool.

You can go first person mode by clicking some button, I can't remember what it is though. Maybe it is zooming in all the way, but I know you can enter first person mode. The frame rate for me isn't very good because I am playing it on a laptop, but for you it will probably be excellent.

I dont know about the 360 version though.

hmmm. Maybe it should get it then..?

I've had my eyes on this game for a while now, once I first heard about it and how similar to Oblivion it was looking. The graphics didn't look too spectacular, but then again graphics aren't everything. After reading a fairly disappointing preview article about it on IGN I got turned off from it and didn't anticipate it as much as earlier. Basically, they made it out to be kinda boring and quite mediocre. Would you say that's the case?

How does the fighting system work? And can you go first person mode? I've heard the frame rate is actually quite stable even though it's using it's own proprietary engine.

I think I recall hearing that this would be the very first game that 360 owners could play online with Vista owners. It's about time.

Blah, that was my post, the site loves to sign me outsometimes. Im gonna have to download this game when I get back home this weekend. Im fairly sure I can find it on a torrent site.
