from IGN:

October 31, 2005 - A financial update from publisher Take-Two today confirms what many gamers feared: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion will not reach Xbox 360 and PC gamers this year.

According to the announcement, which offers lowered guidance for fiscal 2005 and 2006, Oblivion has been moved from the company's first quarter, which ends in January, to its second quarter -- February through April 2006.

For Q1 2006, the company now expects to post $300 to $350 million in net sales -- numbers which reflect the delay of Bethesda's ambitious RPG sequel.

So far, neither Take-Two nor Bethesda have offered reasons for pushing back Oblivion, though given the game's scope, many expected the title may not reach stores in time for holiday shopping.

We'll be back as we learn more.

seriously, you should look into getting a HD fitted in your xbox in the meantime, its lovely turning it on and having 75 games, emulators, 8 movies and a bunch of albums sitting on it.

if my laser dies and I have to get an upgrade then I might get a HD, but until then I'm too lazy, I'll just keep downloading and playing off disc
