With so much to do, it's a wonder how you can keep track of it all without going insane. Oblivion's streamlined interface builds critical info into your cursor and manages your inventory and quest log with easy-to-navigate, web-browser-like tabbed pages. A 'fast-travel' option saves you many hours of trekking: just select any previously-visited location from your in-game map and zip instantly to it.

Fortunately, Oblivion is just as easy to actually play. Different analogue stick motions combine intuitively with timed button presses to swing your sword for varying attacks. Spellcasters and archers enjoy similarly simple functionality. Plus, this doesn't even touch on the enjoyable minigames, including lock-picking, stealth-action and persuasion. They don't feel like filler.
