Product Description: With the Elder Scrolls IV: The Shivering Isles for the Xbox 360, you'll open up new areas in the world of Oblivion so you can continue playing with your existing save game/character, or create an all new character just to explore the new content. Within the Realm of Sheogorath, players can explore the two extreme sides of the god's madness -- the sublimely creative and the completely psychotic. Something is happening to the Shivering Isles and Sheogorath himself looks to you to be his champion and defend his realm and its inhabitants from destruction. Do you have the strength to survive his trials, tame a realm fraught with paranoia and despair, and wear the mantle of a God? ESRB Rated M for Mature

The Shivering Isles creates a new world for you to explore, with new monsters, new ingredients to try out at alchemy, a schizophrenic world to explore, and as part of the storyline you'll get a cool two-in-one sword, the Dawnfang/Duskfang. Plus the character of Sheogorath, the Prince of the realm, is what was missing in Oblivion proper: a fun and engaging NPC with bucketloads of personality! The only NPC worth mentioning in Oblivion was the emperor (Patrick Stewart); all the other NPCs were flat and boring. Bethesda apparently read my mind and crafted a delightfully deranged character with the accent to match.
And the whole ironic storyline, in which you fight to defend madness against the encroaching forces of order, is wonderfully ... Read More:

I recommend this game as an add on to Oblivion. Takes a bit longer to load every game now due to the add on but that is minor compared to the game time it takes to play the complete game.

Right in the middle of the Niben Bay of Cyrodiil lies the entrance to the realm of Sheogorath called the Shivering Isles. Here you'll find some bizarre things and even more bizarre people. Shivering Isles is the expansion pack to the brilliant Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.
Key Features:
Two New Armor and Weapons Sets
Many new special weapons and magical items
About 20-25 hours of new gameplay
A good amount of new enemies
New conjuration spells
New greater power spells
Gameplay 7 of 10
As odd as it sounds, the gameplay is not as good as Oblivion even though they are based on the same combat system and the quests are very similar. First off, even though the map is about one-fifth the size ... Read More:

This expansion is pretty fun. Who doesn't like to run around in a world where insanity reigns supreme?
The only draw backs is that it doesn't add many new things. Oh, it does add so much. New characters to interact with. New story line, new enemies, new spells, new wea-- let's just say it adds a bunch of stuff.
The only things is that it may feel like the same ol'car but with a new paint job. Don't get me wrong. I like what Shivering Isles brings to Oblivion, it just seems like a little bit more could've done the trick for me.
I recommend Shivering Isles to anyone who wants to prolong their game play of Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion or have a new world to explore. It adds several hours of game play (depending how you ... Read More:

If Oblivion is much like Lord of the Rings than Shivering Isles is that combined with the lost mind world of Alice in Wonderland. SI is a world of two sever mental illnesses, dementia and mania. In the middle of these two worlds is the Daedric Prince of Madness himself. When just getting to him is a mission in and of itself this expansion is a wonderful edition to the Elder Scrolls. It is, however, a totally new and different story unlike anything that was encountered in Oblivion. It reminds me most of the dream mission, where you are asked to save the high elf from his own nightmare. It is worth the money and highly enjoyable.
