Default Oblivion : I need to know is it really good?

I heard its really good but I really don't wanna waste my money this time.

My pc is maybe the worst among the forum members. To play that game, I need to upgrade my ram from 256mb to 512mb, and change my graphics card. It's not cheap you know (since I'm still under 18)

I kinda love that game.

It's an excellent game, but considering you have 256MB I would not suggest purchasing it. It is quite a demanding game.

With specs like that just stay away and pretend that you never heard of the game.

It is one of the best RPG games I have played period. It is visually stunning even with a lower end graphic card. Although a limited amount of RAM with definetly limit the expierence.

I've got it, and my specs are. ati radeon 9600xt, amd athlon 64+ 2800, and 1,5gb ram. And i play it on low, without any problems, no lagging or anything.
It's a great game, and i suggest you to buy it, WHEN and only when you have upgraded your machine!

Here's some screens: http://www.elderscrolls.com/art/obliv_pc_screens_01.htm
They are all taken when playing the game, they are not renders.

Is 512MB ram good enough? Or a little lag?

I think if you keep the textures and res/detail down to medium you should just get away with it, that is if you don't have heaps running in the background!

It would definitely be an improvment, but since you have a P4 you might see a little lag.
