I wish I could play this game again to try the new patch.

My 360 decided yesterday, to finally f up it's first game. I wish it had picked like Quake 4 and not Oblivion :-( . I suppose it was bound to happen with all of the usage that disc got though.

:'-(

another thing: I once had an "Adoring Fan" following me around because i'm the great and mighty Grand Champion of the Arena. He had died though. after this update he came back to life and surprised the hell out of me when he suddenly showed up while i was walking through town!

In Mystery and Harlun’s Watch, the dead body you are supposed to find will no longer disappear from Swampy Cave if you cleared out the dungeon before starting the quest.

i dont know if this is a list of everything done by the patch but i know its a lot it. Also this is the PC and 360 bug fixes not just the 360.

OK I'm confused.... I've seen different people say you can and can't dupe anymore.... so what's the real deal on this?

Some people got a system update and thought it was the Oblivion update. This update had nothing to do with Oblivion and as such did not alter the ability to duplicate. These people jumped the gun and claimed that the Oblivion update did not fix the dupe glitch. What the Oblivion update did NOT do was remove already duped items. I have never duped items except to test it and I reloaded after that. I am glad they fixed it because of the fact that IT IS A BUG!

regardless of the ability to dupe or not, everyone should download this update. Oblivion runs smoother and loads faster. Why would anyone pass that up? Dupe a ton of shit, put it in your house and then update.

I duped about 300 Azura's Stars and put them in a chest before I updated, just in case. The update seems to improve a few things like framerate and loading times. Also, it now clears the cache every time you play... so we don't have to hold down A anymore.

umm NO, I got the system update messed with it for a while, then started oblivion up and updated, I am still able to dupe items. Just to make sure i took oblivion out, restarted and put it in, no prompt for update, and still able to dupe items.
