I remember playing the first elder scrolls to come out on xbox 360. Now there are a few more out on xbox360. But I kind of forgot which one I played and want to buy the sequels. Does anyone know what is the full name of the first elder scrolls to come out on the xbox360. Thanks...

By the way culdcept on xbox360 is awsome game that alot of people dont know about.
Elder scrolls IV Oblivion was the first 360 game. The 3rd edition of scrolls, Morrowind, appeared on reg xbox.

I believe Morrowind is backwards compatible, and it is the first Xbox platform game. I'd certainly recommend picking it up, since it shouldn't cost you much online. Buy the GOTY version, though, you'll definitely want the massive expansions. Gawd, that was when they did expansions RIGHT.

I would like to add a word of caution here. While I agree that Bloodmoon is a great expansion (if you can stay with the game to get to a high enough level to enjoy it.) Tribunal isn't as good and honesty, it has mechanics that can ruin your game, Install Tribunal with caution, especially since you're on a console and cannot install mods that would prevent it from ruining the game. The main way as that as soon as it's activated there are assassins that will ambush you for no reason when you rest. This can really hurt you if you're resting after a hard battle, and on the opposite side, they wear expensive armor and can screw up the economy. Wait until you find the game isn't challenging you enough to install Tribunal or better yet, just skip it and go for bloodmoon.

Not so. Tribunal does nothing like ruin the game the way you say it does. On console, the assassins will not ambush you until level 6 or so. If you can't deal with them by the time they show up, you are playing the game badly.

(On PC, the assassins may ambush you at any time. You must be prepared to defend yourself from the beginning of the game. But that does not obtain on console.)

And the assassins are most certainly not ambushing you for no reason at all. The reason they ambush you is a huge spoiler, so I will not say more.

I still think my warning is valid. When I got Tribunal, I found that mechanic can ruin the game. Morrowind is very luck based so you can do everything right and if the computer's dice roll against you, you can have problems, and adding assassins that come during the wound licking can be a problem. My worse problem is that it's rather mediocre, the new areas feel very cramped and kinda dull, it didn't play to Morrowind's openess. Heck I only Install Tribunal just because there are some great mods that don't work if you don't have it.

No. You can't play Morrowind bad. That's bullshit, if you want to play as sneaky talkative alchemist, you should be fully able to and the darn assassins prevent you from doing so. Tribunal should be turned on after you are prepared to face them, and they are generally a bad idea.

Uh...I might be wrong about this, but I believe on the Xbox copy I own it was all-or-nothing, play the game or don't. I will grant you that the assassins can be a problem (especially since on the PC version, you can face them right away if you aren't careful). I will also grant you that stopping them at such a low level without good combat skills requires certain...tricks that only a Morrowind vet would know about. I think it's still important to get the GOTY because Bloodmoon is an experience that should not be missed and can't be had on the Xbox without Tribunal.

As far as the economy goes, I just have three things to say. First of all, you can always toss the loot in a barrel. Selling it is a choice. Secondly, I can "break" Morrowind's economy right off the boat, Tribunal or no, and walk out of there with a full armor set, a pouch full of coins, and magical equipment. Without selling the assassin's gear, and without mods. Thirdly, Morrowind's economy can be broken in innumerable ways, to the point where it is silly to claim there is any kind of valid economy. The whole point of the Elder Scrolls games is to get so filthy rich that you sneeze septims and blow your nose on magic scrolls.

Easily avoidable. Sleep only in out-of-the-way places. Once the assassin strikes, you can teleport (recall or almsivi/divine) out of the building. Mark it on the map and don't return until you have a sufficient level. This is legitimate roleplaying, since you are sneaky and "pacifist" to an extent. Let's just say the assassin isn't very bright, and wants to stick around if you happen to "reappear" in the same place (which you, ironically, might just do if/when you decide to go and kill him).

Roleplaying? Yes. Damn annoying? Certainly. I've had too much of a hard time aquiring my bed and generally building I live in to go and sleep in wilderness!
I just picked up Morrowind after years of not having it. The game is just as bloody brilliant as I remember it being, certainly worth the asking price. I've never played either Bloodmoon or Tribunal, so can't wait for that. What's everyone's opinion on Oblivion? Just started that, too, not too far. Certainly interesting so far, though.

Well, you can always get the guards to kill the assassin for you. Don't strike the assassin, run outside the building and find a guard. As long as the guard sees them hit you and you haven't hit them, the guard interferes and will try to kill you (Disclaimer: I used to do this on the PC, it may be different on the Xbox). Alternatively, buy a couple of scrolls of Winter's Breath from the shop in Seyda Neen and you can kill an assassin with them fairly easily.

Morrowind's lore was richer and the world was more interesting to explore. Oblivion is far better than people give it credit for, though, and the combat system really isn't bad. And I have to say, The Shivering Isles beats out Bloodmoon for my favorite expansion. I think it's far better than the original Oblivion storyline.

I would turn up the difficulty witch seemed to make the first one always come right away. Then I would sleep at an inn in Ald Ruhn. I found I could open the door to my room and get him stuck up on it every time. Once they he was pinned there I could take my time dealing with him. It made the whole encounter fairly easy. Still had to save first though, just in case.

It's quite enjoyable for the first 10 hours or so, but then you really start noticing all the warts it has. Worst is probably the level scaling, which is implemented in an absolutely horrible way. If you're playing it on the PC I'd recommend using Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul as it drastically improves the entire game (just be warned that it makes the game quite a bit harder until you've gained a few levels). Also, if you're playing it on the PC, you owe it to yourself to check out the total conversion Nehrim at some point.
I don't like Obscuros, it changes too much lore and shit. Use Francesco's mod, it fixes the scaling and some other annoyances without making it a different game.

Oblivion's main issue for me is the horrible story and dialogue though, honestly. No mod fixes that.
