The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion ships March 20, so expect it to hit stores on the 21st. Let's hope the extra four months were used to squash more bugs than were caught in the previous installment. Early reviews suggest that, just like in Morrowind, your early missions include clearing lots of rats. Also, popup and frame rates were problems in these near-release look-sees. Combat is greatly improved, no longer tied entirely to behind-the-scenes dice rolls. And all controller buttons can be remapped to suit your style of play. The Oblivion achievement list is old news, but there are new ones leaked for Burnout Revenge, College Hoops 2K6 and Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter. They're the next best thing to actually playing the games, particularly if you're a gamerscore whore...
