It's been months since Bethesda Softworks shipped The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and while the company's pimped their downloadable content to no end, a patch to fix some of the rough spots that weren't ironed out before release has been long coming.

At least the wait's not far off now. The company confirmed to 1UP that an official patch is in the final stages of development and certification, and should be available for both PC and Xbox 360 users sometime next week.

But what if you don't have access to Xbox Live? The company's looking into a number of options, including bundling the patch onto a disc with the Official Xbox Magazine. "We'll make it available via whatever means are out there for any game to get updates to people playing the game," said public relations head Pete Hines.

I hope this won't be one of those BF2 patches that make the game more unstable than before. Hopefully performance is improved too.

It'll take more than a couple of patches to help that game.

I did read the article, I was being sarcastic ... as the 360 version will be included on a mag cover disc

The beta patch wasn't very big so don't worry. And the beta patch helped a lot, I mean it more than halved my random crashes, now I crash when I close or when I do too much **** with my mods in a hit (like cloning a target and putting a few summons about (the frost atronach seems to not appreciate being accidentally hit by the guard ) and watching the chaos ensue - PJs spell compendium).

looks like it's only about 1.5 MB, but it says to allow 20 minutes for it to update itself.
