This may be common knowledge to everyone else but its not to me.

I see Oblivion was made by Bethesda but published by 2k games. What does that mean? Did Bethesda design everything, write the code, test it all that crap and then GIVE the gold code to 2k so they can put in on a DVD? This is kinda like the question of what a producer does in movies ... closest guess I can make is that they give money to the filmmakers. Anyone want to shed some light on this for me?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
