Is this a new game or an expansion?
Looks kinda different, though very nice. Gold never looked better.

I'm positive that I've already seen that second screenshot, and to answer Sam's question, it's an expansion on Oblivion offering "30+ hours of gameplay." But yeah, I've known about this for a while, but as a person who's still playing the original content that Oblivion offers, I'm not too excited about it.

Spartan, do you know if this is a stand alone game or do you have to have oblivion for it to play?

It's an expansion pack, so it definitely needs Oblivion.

EDIT:
I'll recheck my sources just to be sure.

ANOTHER EDIT:
I am correct (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_IV:_Shivering_Isles)

Yeah, I'm guessing those aren't from the Xbox version, but from a top of the line PC.

Did you guys hear about Oblivion for the PS3? It's gonna have every expansion piece for Oblivion up to date and it's gonna have 1-2 second loading screens. :O

lol, I'm not too excited about the expansion, saying i just beat the main questline of regular today... while i have had it since last summer.

The loading screens are overused. I'm definate the xbox version could have had the whole game contained with no loading screens at all. seems a little stupid when I can travel the whole world, seeing forward for hundreds of miles - then have to enter a loading screen when i go into a shed.
