Not wanting to be left out after the recent success stories concerning Activision's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed II, Electronic Arts (EA) has today announced that it has set a new record for site traffic at DragonAge.com and new user registrations at its social networking site, Social.Bioware.com. With the release of Dragon Age: Origins, the BioWare community has grown to a record five million registered users, propelled by outstanding word-of-mouth buzz amongst fans of the Role-Playing Game.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?

4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.

Was this the huge announcement? LAME :(
This game seriously need more DLC super quick before they're made irrelevant. Its not like Fallout 3 where the ending left you wanting for more. At the end of Dragon Age the player is physically and emotionally exhausted. If Bioware is going to release anymore DLC then they need to do so before most of the player base move on.
We all want to know one thing...I wont spoil it, but you know what I'm talking about.
I'd spend 30 dollars for 3 hours of game play to know the answer.
The ending of this game I thought was epic. Made the rest of the story that much better.
