This is interesting. There have long been rumors that Oblivion would be making its way to the PS3. Those rumors have been denied by Bethesda, but the rumor got some fresh fire when 1UP' s 1UP Yours Podcast recently mentioned that Oblivion is slated to be a PS3 launch title.

The exact quote, from the podcast, when discussing potential Oblivion expansion:

" Well we' re getting so close to the PS3 and they still haven' t shown the PS3 version which is apparently a launch title and I think everyone' s curious what it has that' s different, if anything."

Of course, it' s just the idle comment of some hairy game journalists indulging in an aural sausage fest, so that' s hardly concrete. But the 1UP guys do tend to have their thumbs on the pulse of interesting industry insider knowledge, so keep your ears pressed to the earth, kids. Florian Eckhardt
