very creative video idea i love it
The overly bright/highlighted and almost cartoony look was such a turn off of that game.
"a toll" xd
i love this man. you guys should do a little more of this type of content, its great. Your presentation is amazing ben
VERY strong first episode guys! Fantastic new format and show. I love that you guys are in a place that you can now do more shows and I love the choices you've been going for so far.
Dude, if a good Monster Hunger could be made on the PSP, it should have been able to handle a good translation of Oblivion. Even it it was trimmed to fit the hardware.
They should have ported TES III Morrowind instead. TES IV Oblivion could have come to next gen (PS Vita) – both are amazing games.
A 1:1 old-gen game port would be a lot better than a half-assed new-gen game port.
I'm not an Elder Scrolls fan, but I can say that this is a shame. I'm sure fans would have dug this game.
I first heard about this title from Blameitonjorge's "Top 40 Lost or Cancelled Video Games" video. This probably would have made top bucks.
I love this series and enjoy this topic, however, this video isn't exactly a hit for Triple Jump. Ah, well….
Much love to Ben and Peter and Ashton and the other guy!
That PSP version looks really good. Keep in mind we're talking about something that has less power than the PS2, which was weaker than the original Xbox, a system that ran Morrowind, the Elder Scrolls title before Oblivion.
Man! I would have LOVED a PSP port of Oblivion. I spent so many hours playing the XB360 version of Oblivion and tons of time on my PSP. Shame to both hear about the release of this game and the cancellation of this game all in a 20 minute stint. Oh, what could have been!!!
Oh damn, here I go playing Oblivion again… Thanks Ben!
Bethesda could remake this as a premium mobile game.
It would be way better than that Blades game.
They could easily disclose the reasons anonymously, the game is clearly dead so hardly an NDA is applicable
I would have loved a game like this on the Vita. The two sticks would have been perfect for it.
And I hope there are more of these to come. Really interesting and great work.
More videos like this please. There’s only so many top 10 lists a person can watch
I would have loved a self contained mini Elder Scrolls on PSP or Vita
Careful saying anything good about a Bethesda game. That seems to not be allowed these days, for some stupid reason.
" 'only' 32 million psps in the west" is too small a market share? doesn't sound right.
That would have been incredible. I remember anticipating it and being heartbroken when it was canceled.
Wow the audio on this one is really bad. Something happened with encoding this video. @TripleJump you may want to review and reupload this one.
Of all the content y'all produce, this series of videos (what went wrong/true story of, etc) have quickly become my favorite. It's everything I loved about Memory Cards (RIP memory cards 😢) distilled into a long form deep dive into one particular incident instead of simply listing multiple unrelated gaming facts. It also really let's the team showcase their journalistic ability. I really hope this continues.
Man, I love well-researched deep-dive video essays.
Never played oblivion, didn't have anything that could play it at the time, the idea it could play on a handheld is optimistic at kindest!
The cantina.
As much as I love worst, wierd and top ten lists of games, this is the best video you guys have done for a long time… Do loot crates one more time please 😂
Omg it would have been awful
I remember seeing the article in Game Informer. The PSP version was supposed to be a kind of dungeon crawler.
Screw Oblivion, after HL2 i got a real hardon for decent graphics and oblivion looks like it was made as a release title for the PS2.
Sounds very much like it would have been more akin to Battlespire or Redguard, and this, a bit toilet.
i just settle for listening to oblivion's soundtrack when i get the urge to play the game again to be honest
The PSP is a console I will always have great affection for. So very flawed but for me at the time it was the most amazing technology. Great new series.
How is this the “true story” of its cancelation? You added nothing to the information we already had, and then say at the end of the video that you found out nothing new….
I hope triple jump does more of these videos and the ones like the Sega one
Tiz gooooood
This. This is the type of video I want to see. I expect it might be more evergreen than the normal lot. Hopefully this is a success, because I'd love to see one on the PSP BioShock.
Still looks like more fun than Starfield
More of this! Love this format idea!
Nice vid on the subject. Hopefully we'll see some more like this, similar to the 'what went wrong' vids.
Sorry, but as Oblivion had been eclipsed by Skyrim in the public consciousness, and that was ten years ago, with everything Bethesda has done since getting a…. mixed… reception, (and I never owned a PSP) it is hard to understand the fuss about Oblivion being on handheld. But, as you said, "one of the best games of all time"
