"New Very Low Quality graphic setting available under Launcher options with improved support for low end FX cards (5700 and lower). To use this setting, go to the Launcher, select Options and click Reset to Defaults to allow the auto detect to check your system."
but at least it's an option, although it's still a fault of the FX (my old R9600P would play Oblivion better than an FX5900U which really needs that patch too). Can't patch or hack the old Xbox to play Oblivion.
After reading this thread I am convinced that 360s, PS3s and PCs are the best and that 360s, PS3s, and PCs all suck. I am also conviced that the aformentioned gaming systems are both already obsolete and are future proof.

The Wii cannot win, there are no good RTS games for it, it dosn't have 8 psuedo cores, it doesn't have unified shaders, and it cannot be run in SLI. It may be fun to some people, but it certainly isn't the best, thus it doesn't win.

Yes, the PS3 is out now and the high-end PCs of 2007 blow the doors off the PS3. Just the 8800 GTX (8 series with 128 unified shaders) video card can process data twice as fast as all the PS3 chips combined.
I hope people get wiser as PCs advance.

Funny thing is that it doesnt even take a PC with a core 2 chip and a 8800GTX to blow the doors off of either the PS3 or 360.
My last PC before this one had an AMD X2 4800@2.7ghz cpu and a X1900XT@730core 1660mem. Even that PC would blow the doors off any of the consoles out at the moment.
I had a 360 for a short while along side my last PC and played games such as Prey, Oblivion, Condemned, COD2 on both for comparison and the PC destroyed the 360 hands down with Higher frame rates, Higher detailed Textures, better lighting and shadows, 360 uses practically zero AF which makes textures look like muddy crap compared to what the PC can do plus the higher levels of AA.
Kids will often try to down play the whole AF thing but its funny as hell when you have one in your house and they see a game like Oblivion for the first time with 16XAF turned on The look on their face is worth a million dollars
On a side note (not trying to hijack this ludicrous thread), what did you think of your 4800X2..... can't decide if I should get one for my 939 board, or just save the money and upgrade the whole thing to C2D..... would mean new ram though
