I feel like I need to start the review with an apology, and not just an apology but one that goes two ways. Both EA and the Fragland regulars should be on the receiving end because I'm late with summing up my thoughts on this game. The reason for my tardiness is twofold.

Good points -Excellent graphics, I found the details on the characters faces particularly beautiful, in many games all faces look very much alike. The characters also animate nicely. -Involving story line.

Great fun and the banter between NPC's and yourself is hilarious at times. So many ways to do things, be good or be nasty. Only downside is some of the side quests and items can be very difficult to find, and I'm not talking about the actual quests, I'm talking about the graphical item such as the...

Dragon Age Origins is a great game that gives the user the ability to "shape" the world through their choices made within the game. As the name states, you start off by choosing your own "Origin" by picking your race/class/appearance for your main character.

Great Story - Character Customization - Beautiful Character Interaction & Development - Great Online Community full of FREE content - Includes ALL DLC

- Outdated Graphics - Slow combat system - Difficulty low; even on highest setting - 26+ GB of Memory - Expansion terribly short

BioWare delivers yet again. Evil beings have an excuse, they only know the darkness, but […]

+ Deep combat; + Outstanding story; + Huge scope

Environments are meh; Uneven difficulty; Not enough potions

This is one of my favorite games. Extremely interesting story, with a lot of replayability. I ripped through it, and then instantly started again, one of the only times I have done that on any game.

Last month I reviewed the Darkspawn Chronicles DLC , saying that even at "$5 in Microsoft Points … it has questionable value." I found it "a single-minded module that lasts about an hour, adds a single new item to the main game, and offers little replayability" … and was really just an average...

+ Great story + Well-done characters + Great new music + Everything feels tweaked and optimized + At 3+ hours this is a solid length

– Limited party size and choice – Combat not very challenging – Lack of a single epic battle

Dragon Age: Origins' Leliana may have seemed sweet enough, but her initially faithful and spiritual demeanor masked an unsavory past. In Leliana's Song, the most recent downloadable content released for last year's superb role-playing game, you explore the bard's dark side and glimpse the...

Fantastic voice acting; Great new music; Effective storytelling casts Leliana in a darker light

Party is maxed out at three characters; None of the battles are very interesting; including the final fight

Welcome to the world of Dragon Age: Origins, where you will experience yet another epic RPG from the makers of Mass Effect, Neverwinter Nights and Jade Empire, to name but a few.
