Full Version: The day Oblivion comes to your town
Chorrol.com > Elder Scrolls Games > Oblivion
Ola Martin
Just after school, march 24(The one date to rule them all in Norway) I shall take the bus to the centrum of Trondheim, and meet my friend at a shop called spiderman. He has some good contacts there, so there won't be any problem getting the game. Of corse i shall buy the Special edition (collectors in europe or something.)
And when I get home I shall lock up myself in my room for the rest of the year playing oblivion. biggrin.gif
I don't think my family will be pleased, but. It's just something you have to do.
I'm not kiddin...


Or maybe I am.

What are you going to do?
Intestinal Chaos
(Obligatory smart-boat post)


Chances are I'll play it.
tymestrike
Me I got it preordered by my dad and sister for x-mas so I'll sit and wait (read: Go crazy and drive the rest of the house crazy while waiting for it to show). Then I'll install and wait for that to finish. Then I'll play it nonstop till I've done everything thats sane. Afterwards I'll work on the insane things. And when I'm done with that I'll play it again, and again, (repeat into infinity).

Edit: fixed puncuation (3/10/06 0100)

Well, I was gonna skip school.. But now I've missed to many days because of my wreck.. grrr..

So, I'll come home, stick that sucker in my c drive and read the manual till my eyes bleed.
Tellie

I bet Oblivion is far more exiting to celebrate than a birthday. wink.gif

I'm going to do the same as most people, as soon as I exit university I'll go to the store were I've preordered and grab my copy, get myself home and start playing smile.gif. Luckilly for us european the 24th is a friday so we'll have a whole weekend to play before we'll have to rip our hands of the keyboard/controler and get our a**es to work/school laugh.gif.

Luckilly for me I also have quite a bit to travel to get home (I study in Stockholm and live in Uppsala, thats 88km distance from each city), so I'll have plenty of time to read the manual/drool over the septim coin before I'll be stuck in Cyrodiil for some time. smile.gif

Ok, now I'm rambling, but I've actually got to thinking, what if the game isn't in store the 24th? blink.gif Then I'll have to wait til the monday after to get it.... That would be awful indeed.. Maybe I can cancel the preorder and get it from another store mellow.gif. hmm.. Well, let's just hope it's there the 24th biggrin.gif.

Edit: Ok.. I use smilies a LOT!
Tellie
I know you use them a lot bo...i do it to sometimes...but well I'm propably not going to get to play it so much, even though it will be weekend at the time..I have to much ******* work to do...we have to work each weekend to manage to tinish before our deadline. sad.gif

Nope, sorry Minkey, I am not kidding... It took us - the country, I mean, in global - 12 months delay to get first legal copies of Morrowind; of course, if you wanted to you could've gone to teh ebil pirates at any time ohmy.gif but, I had a better idea at the time: I invested money into a beautiful, brand new GeForce MX440 from MSI, which included a Morrowind CD. I just recently obtained Morrowind GOTY for PC and I am just happy I can own all four discs now. Although now things with game distribution are far better than 3-4 years ago, I still believe that there will be a significant delay in Serbia/Montenegro; and even when first copies of TES IV arrive in Belgrade their price will probably be sky-high... but still, because now I've developed strong sence of respect for Bethesda (c'mon ? Who else, in Dibella's name, pre-burns their maps ??) and their work I can promise you all that I WILL NOT PLAY OBLIVION ON MY COMPUTER IF IT'S NOT 100% LEGAL - even if that means another few years of waiting... hehe, it seems that I'll be the only one who will still be waiting4oblivion after 20.03.2006. wacko.gif
Tellie
Awww i feel sorry for you Mil...here have a cake.gif to cheer you up.

How could you forget to buy a game as great as Oblivion?
Ola Martin
Yeah, if you DO forget i'll kill you ohmy.gif
Schlucke
I'll wake up at 2 pm cos I've been partying all week because I wrote my last exam for a month at Monday.

Then I'll play till the 28th and THEN party another time because some con-inhabitants (?) write THEIR last exam.

An then I'll drive home and play some more.
MarkII
i may wander round some shops this week asking the staff questions to see if theyll have it in stock, and if they know how much the collectors edition will be priced. then, secure in the knowledge, im going to force myself up out of bed in the middle of the night on thursday the 23rd (9am friday morning, to all you "normal" people) and proceed out the door with the last real life quest ill have in quite a long time. so, yeah, then i expect ill get a copy and race home, because i have to work friday evening and i want to get as much time in with the game as i can before i have to leave the house.

i dont think ive ever been this excited bout a game release, you know. its shocking, my heart is actually beating a little faster thinking about this now. i expect its because ive been reading some amazing fantasy novels lately and i want more than anything to be able to immerse myself in a world like that. and also the hype on this site hasnt helped. just over a week to go! come on!
Rapp0ng
If my pre-order fails to arrive on time I shall be at a nearby shop saying things such as "Your on your honor, don't press your luck" whilst slamming the counter demanding a copy.

I may have to use insults such as "N'wah!" If I don't get my way.
kujahn
I'll Get it the 23'rd or 24'th according to Amazon uk, by by very secret and nasty express mail, so I'll expect it the 22'nd tongue.gif
Then I'm gonna be sick, stay home from work and play the whole week-end biggrin.gif
I told my whife to find something fun to do on her own.
Then i'm prolly gonna do Oblivion like I did Morrowind, that's untill Elder scrolls V is out evillol.sml.gif
Blitz
I can't believe some of you are going to school I am calling in sick and going to wait outside future shop for a while and be the first to get it. Let's just hope I don't kill someone on the way back with my car due to excitment. Then I will get some water and food and lock myself away for about 5 hours and then I will call my freind that wants it so bad but can't afford it right know and just brag and let him listen to the music and sound Effects it is gonna be a great day.

Yeah i've been waiting so long (since 2004) I finshed my college business assignments so i dont have to go in on the 24th ill be waiting outside to shop for it to open get my collects edition read the booklet on the way home, soon as i get home ill stick to map on my wall proudly next to my morrowind GOTY map bring up some food and drink lock the door insert it into my 360 and sit in amazment as i watch the intro and will probally stay in the cell your charactor starts in mucking about with the chains and other objects smile.gif

I wonder if anyone will call me a N'wah LOL evillol.sml.gif
Curly_G_
Get to college, sign in, use the 2 hour period of "study" to take train into town and pick up my pre-order, trading in Kong (X360) at the same time... I got it for £20, so I can only profit!
Then i will return home for (hopefully) 10am, with just under 1 hour to play before I have to be back in college...
I take a seat in lesson and it'll be the slowest day of my life, and if anyone asks, I was on the toilet for 2 hours, not at home! Honest!

I have work at 1pm the next day. I will most likely get up at 9am, get ready for work and play the game until 12:35pm... Then i will get home at 5:30 and play it until 6am Monday Morning biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif ...
This thread makes me anxious... I REALLY WANT IT!!! NOW!!!

I have 8 mutli-vitamins left in my packet the doctor makes me take... and Tomorrow is only 8 days left until Oblivion, so it's motivation to take one a day, just hope I don't get dillusional and take them all in an attempt to make Oblivion come faster.

I'll wake up, and then go to school.
Then get in a fight, with everyone in my school, (even the blind girl), so I get suspended.
Break out of my house, run to best buy, close-line the security, steal Oblivion Collecters Edition and hijack a car home.
Then I'll eat beefjerky and like it because I'm eating beefjerky and playing Oblivion, then everyone is happy and laughs at the laws I broke, realizing I just want to play Oblivion. smile.gif
Tellie
Work I'm afraid...wont be able to play it, untill I come home....but I do get it on Monday....so I guess not everything is lost
