Lens of Truth writes "BioWare's Dragon Age II will be released Tomorrow for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC. For those of you wondering if the PS3 version of the game will require an install we've got your answer..."
Immersed Gamer writes: "In order to replace the oppressive BioWare Points system, EA is making a large portion of the Mass Effect and Dragon Age DLC catalogs free for PC users.
For those of you blissfully unaware, EA and BioWare employed a payment system called BioWare Points on PC to pay for DLCs for titles like Mass Effect and Dragon Age. While PC gamers have been struggling with BioWare point’s unfair conversion rates and extremely scarce and cost-detrimental sales.
Console players have been allowed to purchase content in pieces through the appropriate Sony and Microsoft shops. For real money, and not BioWare monopoly bucks. In turn, console players missed out on some DLC content, such as Mass Effect 2 pre-order bonuses that have been repackaged into a DLC pack."
Great response to Ubisoft and their disgusting behavior. Ubisoft decide to take away DLC from people who paid for it, while EA give it for free to everyone when they realize their system sucks. Who would have thought that EA of all companies would be showing Ubisoft how it should be done (even if this is EA fixing their own mistakes as well).

While BioWare’s quality has fallen off lately, there’s no denying the quality of titles in their portfolio. That’s why we’re going to dive in and rank every BioWare game from worst to best. By every, I do mean every BioWare game, even the ones you completely forgot about!"
Ranked from worse to even more worse more like, they been on free fall for a fair few years now and I personally don't think any of there earlier games have aged well
Wow to think at one point in their history they made a Sonic the Hedgehog game..crazy
Anthem is crazy underrated. I really enjoyed it. ME1 is Bioware's best imo
Delving into a well-loved game or series years after its release, when it already has an enthusiastic and devoted fanbase, can be incredibly difficult. People can be casually mean on the internet without intending to, and that happens a lot when you say you don’t like something they do. Fans of the franchise take their love of the game very seriously. They’re fervent and devoted, which has its charms, but it can also feel like you’re disappointing them when you decide their thing is not your thing.
Cult favorite? It’s well known and sold fairly well and they are making a fourth game . I don’t see it anywhere near cult favorite status . I really enjoyed the first game and the third was pretty good (with failed mmo faults you could notice) but the second game was lazily made garbage .
Loved the first one, second was pretty good. Couldn't even get through the third one. Don't have high hopes for 4, but hey, nowhere to go but up hopefully.
DA: Origins was cool, but I got Mass Effect 2 at the same time and goddayum there was no comparison imo.
Now I need to remove some demos, this sucks.
I really don't mind installs, I actually prefer them. They make loading faster, I wish all games had installs. I install all my 360 games too to prolong the life of the DVD drive. I really don't mind waiting an extra 5 - 20 minutes before I can play my game for the first time, it just builds anticipation, sort of like foreplay, it makes things better.
Seriously, 500 Gig HDs are 50 bucks, even the stock HD is good enough unless you PS3 is packed with movies.
Since when was a 3GB install considered big? GT5's install is big, MGS4's was big, but that's more average.
I always say I mind installs on my PS3, but whenever I buy a new game for the 360 that I know I'll be playing for a while I install it anyway, like a hypocrite. So yeah, I guess I really don't mind installs.
that isnt big tho...i saw the title and was expecting 5gb+ or something. Ive been rocking a 320gb HDD in my PS3 for a while now. The days of worrying about an install are long gone.
anyway, im picking it up this week.
