I've recently played Oblivion, and have had a lot of fun; too bad I've pretty much "finished" the game, though. Walking around as a demi-god tends to get boring after a while.
I also just got Prey. It's got some interesting innovations, such as being able to change the direction of gravity, and portals to other places. The whole ghost-walking routine also adds to the puzzles. I just found it a bit too easy (on the easy setting, duh!), and a bit too short. I finished it in a week of only-evening and weekend gaming.

It's quite nice, if you like space-exploration games. It's a rather typical grab-worlds, invent-stuff, build-spaceships game. The ship-design part is pretty well-done, and there's tons of things to invent.
Ultimately, I think it does get a bit boring after a while. I mean, what's left to do but build yet another colony, invent another even bigger gun, and build yet another highly advanced fighter? But as far as space games go, this is a good one.
