I have it for PC. From what I played of Oblivion I like Morrowind a lot better. The interface was a lot simpler, it kinda feels a bit more open because you don't get you first main story quest until you report to this guy, and then you have to ask him for it. So basically you can do a whole bunch of other stuff, like for guilds and such. Weapon and armor selection is pretty fair. All and all the game is a lot cooler with mods. Lets see, the world of just the regular Morrowind is MASSIVE. I didn't even get close to 50% in the 100 hours I played, more like 33% or so. And that's just on the main content, there are 2 other ones from the expansions.

I never really played Oblivion so I can't speak much to how they compare but I think Morrowind is a really sick ass game.

If you can get mods for it on Xbox then I'd suggest you see what's out there. For PC there's mods that improve textures, add weapons, armor, quests, landmasses, gameplay aspects (one where you can sail and run a ship in real time but I never got it to work), some that add scenery like birds and fish in the water and much much more.

I might be able to help with some stuff towards the begging at least.

But yeah I think there's just about endless gameplay in Morrowind, I never got far at all into the main quests of the game, just did whatever I wanted and had a lot of fun.

Thanks for the Info, Having it on PC would be more handy, but the one i have has the 2 expansions included. But i just lost my drive to play, i cant play any game except Warsow lately. lol

from my point of view Morrowind looked bland when i watched my friend playing it since it looked boring and the graphics were terrible. All the openness i saw in morrowind seemed like a whole not of nothing as compared to Oblivion the graphics drew me in and there was tons of stuff to do in the wide open space tons of caves, towns, and cool side quests. But i can't really say morrowind is bad since ive never truly played it.

Well with some simple mods Morrowind looks a lot better. And I can get over 750 fps on occasion. ^^

I'll post screens of what it looks like with the mods.

I found a map of Vvardenfel
Linkity,link, link! Linkity day!

I think those Xes are treasure or wrecked ships.
I know the one near Seyda Neen is a shipwreck, anyway.
