Lust+Violence=BioWare's Dragon Age: Origins

Gameplayer writes: "A videogame with shagging in it draw the attention of two types of people; horny yahoos, and sensationalist media types. We won't berate the first group, because it is a great unwashed mob that we ourselves happen to belong to – let's call a spade a spade. The latter group however are much more deserved of abuse; as they're usually non-gamers who hunt down in-game nookie purely to make a mountain out of a molehill - to beat-up some interest.

In this regard, they are not so far removed from the first group..."

I just want more info on the console versions, like the control scheme, because as far as I'm concerned there is no way I could use the sixaxis to do point and click actions even with countinuous pauses, I'm hoping for something along the lines of Mass Effect, but considering they're no longer using the UE3 engine I don't know...

I like how the response to one person blowing something out of proportion and saying something inaccurate excuses everyone else to blow what THAT person said out of proportion and say something inaccurate.

For those that think "Fox News" waged some vicious campaign of lies and deceit against Mass Effect simply because they had a beef with the game... You would be shocked to know that gaming news sites are the ones that have engaged in a vicious campaign of lies and deceit against Fox News because they have a beef against the network. It's a political beef that has nothing at all to do with gaming.

Fox News had one person on one show who uttered something stupid one time, they then later offered the chance for the producers of Mass Effect to respond and set the record straight but they declined. For this heinous crime they have been vilified up one side and down the other by the ridiculous and hypocritical gaming news media.

If somebody saying something stupid and inaccurate is such a crime against humanity, then why are you saying something stupid and inaccurate against Fox News? Get over it, they didn't do what you claim they did.

How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.

robtion499d ago

Agree Fallout should be on there.

MadLad500d ago

And somehow Planescape Torment doesn't even make the list.

Crows90500d ago

Hollow knight surpasses these.

shinoff2183500d ago

In lore? I must be missing something

Crows90499d ago (Edited 499d ago )

Yes in lore. Easily missed... absolutely. Never played a game that had me loving the world and lore behind it as much as that one. Most of course wouldn't be able to experience it since it is a more difficult game.

DarXyde499d ago

I can't speak for all titles on this list, but by the time you get to Dark Souls III, the lore is a bloody tapestry of intricacy

Crows90499d ago

Played them all. Im not saying the games on the list dont have good lore...I just think hollow knight had more lore that is hidden but present and more easily explored and accessed. The souls games have tremendous lore but theyre mostly hidden and stay that way unless you look for it and research it. The lore is not very accessible.

DarXyde499d ago

Crows90,

I think that's a somewhat fair assessment. For me, the Souls games are less upfront about the lore, but it does invite your fascination through NPCs, items, locations, bosses, etc. There's this kind of natural progression where the picture becomes just clear enough by doing the essential tasks, but it really makes you want to explore every inch of the world.

TheColbertinator499d ago

Suikoden and Legend of Heroes also have massive lore setups.

agent13499d ago

narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games

shinoff2183499d ago

The article was top ten lore in video games. I think they did a bad job picking games out. I know what you mean though. I just like a variety of games and genres.
