The November issue of OPM has exclusive details of the upcoming PSP version of Oblivion. The scans of the game look not too shabby... it looks a heck of a lot better than the N-Gage Elder Scroll's game. According to the article, the PSP version of Oblivion will be "a very different game with a different story line... it has the experience of the dungeon romp. It doesn't have wide-open, wander-the-landscape kind of stuff."

Even though the game's functionality seems a little stripped down, Obivion for PSP will still feature a character creation system, and 18 of the original game's 21 skills. The controls are going to be simplified, of course, and the designers cite Metroid Prime as a source of inspiration, which is only a good thing.

Hey even if it is a complete different story that is fine. The psp needs some good RPG/Adventure games, there are only a couple half decent ones right now.

About time the PSP gets a good RPG that's not a port of a PSX game. :D

Looks like the PSP version is shaping up to everything I was hoping for. I think using Metroid Prime-esque controls is a great idea, with the PSP's limited format. Definitely gonna be picking this one up the day it comes out.

Ok, first off, those shots do look great.... for dungeons...

But really, dungeons weren't what made Oblivion cool. Dungeons were more like a means to an end, something you did to get treasure. The real meat of the game was in the villages, the people you talked to, the story plots, and the exploration. This games will have *NONE* of that.

This will basically be a mindless hack-n-slash! Sure, it's a pretty one, but we could get the same thing for free with a Quake mod! This game is going to SUCK.
