Oblivion PSP Minor Update

Bethesda has axed the free roaming idea for the PSP and has decided to go in for a more ‘dungeon crawling’ experience.

Once Bethesda issued an official statement stating the fact that their action/RPG, The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion would be headed to the PSP, the first question on every one’s mind was how the hell would Bethesda manage to fit the vast world of Tamriel onto Sony’s handheld? Well, Bethesda isn’t going to fit the vast world of Tamriel onto Sony’s handheld as they’ve completely axed the free roaming idea for the PSP and have decided to go in for a more ‘dungeon crawling’ experience.

No need to slit your wrists though; even though Oblivion for the PSP will be a different game with a different storyline, “all the core attributes and perks as well as most of the skills from the original game will be in the PSP version.”

No official media is out as of now, but we’ll keep you posted as more info gets released. Oblivion will release for the PSP sometime in 2007.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now. see more
