 Oblivion Walkthru, Help Guide March 3, 2008
A nice Help Guide, A good Walkthru Manual.
Lots of maps, photos, and advice..
Extremely Helpful February 17, 2008
Oblivion wouldn't be as interesting without this book telling you of the special areas, secrets, and back story. Necessary to purchase with the game.
Got what i need. January 19, 2008
This guide has everything you need for ever quest in the game, and is one of the most complete strategy guides ive seen.
Has a nice section about creating a character and character development, side quests, skills, and maps of the areas.
If you want to get the most out of the game I would get this guide.
 Buy the newer Revised & Expanded version instead July 9, 2007
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I'm not happy that Amazon recommended this edition to me without a mention that there is a newer, more complete version available... and Amazon offers the newer one at a lower price than this one, too! Sadly, this is a feature of Amazon's inadequate recommendation engine: they recommend inferior versions of the same product instead of later ones... it's really not very smart.
It also seems odd to me that this book was published in March 2006, but the "revised and expanded" version is published November 2006. Surely at the time this version was published, they were aware that they would be making it obsolete a few months later with a more complete version. Perhaps they should have subtitled this book "Incomplete & Unfinished in time for deadline version".
Superb July 5, 2007
This is an excellent full featured very thorough and useful game guide.
Highly recommended!!
I originally bought it as a means to keep track of all the locations for the 1000's of things in the game - "where was that cave?" "I know I saw that ingredient somewhere..." "I spoke to this NPC before but where were they??"
This book has been invaluable for this alone and ended frustrating hours spent trying to re-locate something I'd already found but forgot to write down or remembered as being in a different place.
But the books usefulness doesn't end there. There are many many quests in the game I simply wouldn't have discovered on my own. Some amusing and some adding yet more depth and background to the world and some that I could NOT figure out on my own :P
And more.. alchemy combinations, story lines not so obvious, enchantment combo's, and so much more that added value and enjoyment to an already excellent game.
