Much to our surprise, especially given the performance hype that had preceeded both of them, both games ran relatively well on most mainstream hardware that was available at the time. One GPU generation later and the worries about performance under Doom 3 and Half Life 2 were yesterday’s news. The same, unfortunately, cannot be said about Bethesda Softworks’ latest immersive RPG: Oblivion.”
