Dragon Age: Origins

The only hints the source code for the countdown give, is the class for the countdown which is 'omgwtfbbq' (Oh My God What The F*ck Barbecue). The actual countdown code itself was written by an Aussie guy (Keith Wood), but it doesn't give any hints- as the onExpiry is null, so whatever is going to happen isn't going to be triggered automatically.

Great game. I'm quite addicted to it. A little buggy but I didn't installed any update yet. I liked the most a scene where Morrigan and Leliana talks about creationism. Was very fun to see it in a game. :)

After many hours tring to make this game play I have come to belive Bioware has no quality control. I have updated video driver, direct x, sound card, and a couple of others, still game doesn't do anything other than crash. This is just to much trouble to play a game in my off time. Too bad I bought it online, other wise I take back to store.

For those of you who loved Baldur's Gate, you will certainly enjoy Dragon Age: Origins (DAO). This is a rather formulaic, but very well done, fantasy role playing game. People who enjoy this type of game generally have no problems putting in 50 hours or more into a game and exploring every area in it. It is meant for the a gamer who perfers slower paced games. This genre of game is what got me into gaming many years ago, and Dragon Age is one of the best by far, taking its place along side the Baldur's Gate franchise and Planescape. To make this review more concise, I will break it down into sections. Controls: This is a multiplatform game, it is also available on the XBOX 360 and the PlayStation 3, However, it seems as though it was made originally for the PC then ported over to the consoles. The PC version has an entirely different control scheme than the console versions. If you have played Neverwinter Nights 2 or any other RPG on the PC, then the controls will be very f... Read more

What makes this game so great is that its very detailed story line, all of it in video cut scenes. The voice acting, of which there is a lot, is all professionally done and movie quality similar to a Disney movie. Its almost like participating in a movie. Combat is good, crafting is just ok. I have played almost every PC game to date and this one is now placed at the top of the list. The campaign took me about 40 hours to complete. I wished it would have lasted a lot longer.

This is a remarkable game. RPG fans this is a Must-Buy. And everyone else should consider giving this one a shot. If you liked the Witcher you'll love this.

This game is beautiful, enjoyable, and the story is excellent but I could NOT believe they ask for you to buy points online to buy extra content. Not only that but quests will come up and when you are asked by an NPC (nonplayer character) to go on a quest for them, one of the choices will be (download extra content) and if you click on it, you have to log in and BUY the extra quest. This is a terrible practice. We pay $45 to purchase this game to have to pay more for certain quests. Suddenly downloading a torrent of a game doesn't sound so bad... at least you can get the free updates. Very disappointed in the makers. Further, as I purchased this early and bought the collectors edition I received codes for special items. They forget to mention that you have to have an account and log in to use them. There seems to be an error that I have to load the game, log in and then out, exit the game, come back and then I can use the content.
