If you are thinking of renting the XBOX version of Morrowind, I would highly recommend AGAINST that.
The XBOX version has incredibly muddled graphics, the textures are blurred and the whole game looks horrible, On the PC? Crisp and clean.
You need a mouse for Morrowind, playing it with a controller is a really horrible experience, how are you going to make a fort out of stolen books when you cannot select where you're going to put the book down?
The XBOX version has cut alot of the speech, In the PC version every NPC speaks and has multitudes of things to say, sure alot of communication is done through text, but if they were to take everything said and try to make it into speech, I assume that would take atleast 2-3 gigs of .wavs
Remember, 4000 npc's... each has roughly 30 things to say..some less (like slaves)
But besides that, there is still a ton of speech in the game, with such gems as
Silt Strider NPC's saying "We make a special trip just for you, Same low price"
Nords saying "You're on your honour, don't press your luck"
Dark elves saying "You shall die"
Other stuff like that.
And remember...
The XBOX console port..SUCKS!
