Dragon Age 2 First Impressions
I'd love to have received an advance copy of Dragon Age 2 and finished it by now so I could discuss it in full today, but since I put my pants on one leg at a time and pick up games at midnight on launch day like everyone else, I'll have to limit my scope to the opening hours of the game. Keep an eye out for a full review as I get through it!
BioWare announces comprehensive Dragon Age package for $60
If you have any taste at all for RPGs and haven't touched Dragon Age yet, there's really no more excuse for you. BioWare has unveiled Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate Edition, a $60 box that includes all the current Dragon Age content (thanks Joystiq) scheduled to hit shelves October 26th. For those keeping score, that's Dragon Age: Origins, the expansion Awakening, and (count 'em) seven DLC quests. There's little point in even trying to tally how many game-hours that makes. This package is bursting at the seams, with at least $120 worth of total content including the game, the expansion, and the DLC.
It seems that BioWare is intent on cramming as much Dragon Age down players' throats as possible in advance of the arrival of Dragon Age 2 next spring. So get ready for a nice, long victory lap around Ferelden with your very personally customized character you've gotten to know and love, because remember: Dragon Age 2 leaves him or her behind in favor of a protagonist with a single, prefabricated name and origin.
DLC Double Shot: Bioware Releasing Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age DLC Next Tuesday
Bioware's releasing two DLC packs for their two biggest games, Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age: Origins. Both drop on September 7 and will cost you $10 each. The trailer located above is for this year's critical darling and Game of the Year forerunner, Mass Effect 2. Titled "Lair of the Shadow Broker", this piece of DLC reunites Commander Shepard with one of the possible love interests from the first game, Liara T'Soni. The DLC will take you into the chambers of the mysterious Shadow Broker, a figure that had featured heavily in the periphery of the games and directly in the plot of the Mass Effect: Retribution comic book.
The trailer located after the jump is for last year's Dragon Age: Origins. Taking place after the end of Dragon Age: Origins, this will have you going after one of the party members and finding out just what they've been up to. Any more details would be a spoiler, so if you still haven't finished Dragon Age: Origins, I suggest you avoid the video.
