Oblivion to get free, final DLC: Fighter's Stronghold

Get ready to saddle up your blessedly armor-free horse and don the Crusader's relics one final time. Bethesda announced today that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion would be receiving new downoadable content on Xbox 360 and PC next week, beginning on Oct. 15. The good news? It's free for a week! The bad news? It's the last bit of DLC for the game. Fighter's Stronghold will add a new castle for you to run, complete with your own vintner to create wines for you, a combat trainer, even a taxidermist to create trophies for your pad ... and creep out the local girls.

In other Oblivion DLC news, Bethesda says that they're "close, very close to working something out to bring Shivering Isles to PS3 owners." Which is close, very close to being very good news for those of you who didn't wait out for the Game of the Year edition.

Free: The only word that can compete with the words sex and videogames.

=)

Only one of which Fernando is experience with...

Well, he is quite the player.

Dont worry PS3, you'll get something...someday.

Fernando Rocker (NDF - Water Ring): Oct 10th 2007; 5:34PM

Yeah, you will get something PS3... like dust.

Bloo: Oct 10th 2007; 5:47PM

Hey Fernando - I have dust, but now also the Simpsons demo! (finally something downloadable before it was on the 360)

blooh (CDF - Ass Ring): Oct 10th 2007; 7:18PM

damn copycat

Mr Slavio: Oct 10th 2007; 6:19PM

Freakin sweet!

When is Sony going to close shop on the Playstation 3 and start over?

lessbiasedthanmost: Oct 10th 2007; 7:27PM

About the same time Microsoft ends the 360 and the xbots stop saying retarded things like you just did.

blooh (CDF - Ass Ring): Oct 10th 2007; 8:30PM

haha xbot, that's hilarious

NATO_Duke: Oct 11th 2007; 10:26AM

Oh man, you burned em with xbots. Next time throw in a M$ and everyone should turn their computers off and run for the hills. You da man!!

Anyway, PS did get the short end on Oblivion for sure, and then with it only being a $30 game on the 360 now too, that should have really hurt. While I am excited to see a new free pack, I am wondering if we will soon see a new Elder Scrolls - thats what the console world needs next!

Max: Oct 10th 2007; 7:07PM

So wait...does this include expansions, cuz I was hoping for something more after Shivering Isles. I need more Oblivion. :(

ThornedVenom: Oct 10th 2007; 7:11PM

Maybe I SHOULD start considering getting myself Oblivion for my PC, but not before:

1) I get free time.
2) I use that free time to finish Bioshock.
3) I don't get absorbed by any of the new releases this season.

Your comments: We hear you PS3 fans...like the post says, we're looking into PS3
stuff for you. Shivering Isles is definitely at the tops of most
fans' list, so that's our priority.

lessbiasedthanmost: Oct 10th 2007; 7:26PM

Final DLC eh? Does this mean they'll get around to making a second Elder Scrolls game this console run?

Patrick: Oct 10th 2007; 7:33PM

eso 5 here we come damn itll be purdy

Efren: Oct 11th 2007; 1:17AM

Whats it been like almost two years since the horse armor thing happened?

When are you guys gonna get over it?

roe: Oct 11th 2007; 8:45AM

What a joke, BP is not even close to green, they have been voted by many organizations as one of the most polluting companies on the planet. This year in Wisconsin and Illinois they dumped tons of chemicals into lake michigan and other illegal dumping locations and refused to stop.

Most politicians in our area enjoy their pockets. Its retarded.

NATO_Duke: Oct 11th 2007; 10:32AM

WTF?

NATO_Duke: Oct 11th 2007; 10:54AM

That was at Roe.
