Dragon Age: Origins, its expansion Awakening and Dragon Age II both had rather aggressive pre-order campaigns which saw a great number of items available in a great number of places. It was more of a pain than anything, but as a holiday gift to its fans, Bioware has seen fit to right that particular set of wrongs with one easy holiday package.

Wed, 05 Oct 2011 09:46:24 +0000

The game itself divided opinion amongst the RPG-playing hardcore, but it sold more than enough for the teams at EA and Bioware to continue expanding on Dragon Age II. Thanks to that, they've now released the first screenshots of the first major story-expanding piece of Downloadable Content for the game, titled Mark of the Assassin.

Dragon Age II Review

Tue, 08 Mar 2011 17:07:43 +0000

For a time I found Dragon Age II polarizing at best. There were aspects of the game that I loved, but there were other parts that in equal measure I pretty much hated.
