No, no, no, a thousand times no. Interesting story (from what I played, about three hours or so before I realized I was wasting my time and could be doing ANYTHING else), but the gameplay was just... really, really bad. Both the battles and just running around talking to people were boring.

What's a "sandbox style?"

^Go anywhere, do anything, ie: Grand Theft Auto. Like a sandbox.
Most PS2 games are going for around $20 at Gamestop. I'll be completing my console collection for that this month. $30 for Atelier Iris 3 new. This'll probably be the last Xmas for PS2...

So would a game like Oblivion be considered "sandbox style?"

BK: Devil Summoner is considered to be pretty awful. Even the diehard SMT fans hate it. It's a shame, as it actually looked pretty good at first.
As for Oblivion... I guess it'd be considered one, though I think Fable's a better example of a sandbox RPG. Like Fury said, GTA's a perfect example, and for a more recent example, Assassin's Creed.

Most people would consider it a Western or PC styled RPG versus a JRPG or console RPG like the Final Fantasy series.

Call of Duty 4 for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 is only $39.99 on Amazon.
Unfortunately the PC version is still $50. It was ten bucks less last week, I wish I picked it up then. After playing the demo I realized even if the single player is only 5 or 6 hours, at that intensity it's worth it (not to mention Multiplayer). I guess I'll add it to the X-mas list and hopefully get it so I don't have to actually pay for it.

Wiis are shipping to stores this weekend. This will probably be your last chance to get one before Christmas.

IMO, Oblivion is a Western RPG, like Neverwinter Nights or Everquest.

Everquest is an MMORPG, and I don't think it should be directly compared to standard RPGs.
Also, I don't see why Oblivion couldn't be considered a sandbox game. It is an RPG, but it plays very differently than the likes of Neverwinter Nights and similar games. It definitely has more sandbox elements than Fable.

I got it for $15 at Amazon. Oh well. If you like wrestling games, it's worth checking out just for all the insane customization, steep learning curve aside. It's the hardcore gamer's wrestling game.
