Final Oblivion DLC content, Fighter's Stronghold, to hit PC/360 next week photo

You have to love Bethesda Softworks -- since releasing Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion for the PC and Xbox 360, they've done a great job in supporting the game with downloadable content, and much needed updates. Sure, there was a slight issue in the beginning involving some horse armor, but we'll let that slide (or at least I will, since I wasn't silly enough to buy it).

Well, it's soon coming to an end, as they have announced that next Monday, October 15, will mark the release of the game's last downloadable content. Entitled "Fighter's Stronghold," the add-on will give you a fully detailed castle to explore, a secret treasure vault, the ability to hire a vinter and a taxidermist, and more. You can head over to the official Elder Scrolls Web site for the full details and related story information. 

But here's the best part -- for one week, this content will be free via elderscrolls.com (PC) and Xbox Live. Who is going to argue with free, right?

Thanks for the horse armor, Bethesda!

Every time Bethesda releases a new Oblivion release, they break Oldblivion again. I swear, they do it on purpose.

(I despise "first" posts with an unholy passion, but I find "first" posts that aren't actually first to be far more amusing than they have any right to be.)

I have all of the Oblivion DLC thus far, except for the Horse armor. I got Shivering Isles over the summer. I reinstalled Oblivion and all that shit, and even managed to play through the tutorial dungeon before despairing, uninstalling it, and moving on to something far less time- and soul-consuming.

I'll probably get this one too eventually because it sounds pretty awesome, but it'll be at a point when I have a lot more free time than I have right now.

Well, no, I'll actually get it next Monday while it's free, but I won't actually play it until a point when I have a lot more free time.
