I didn't post a story! Stop teh spam! :P

Demon Soul's looks better. Im not interested at all in this one. I really want DS though...and a ps3...DaViD_99

Looks like that's not the case at all. They seem to be getting about equal critical acclaim so far.

Btw, this is about Dragon Age, not Demon's Souls.

Game Informer also gave the PC version a 9.0. They haven't reviewed the console versions yet.

Um nevermind. I didn't see the GI score there at my first glance :P

Nice. You got ready early for the awesomeness that'll be Dragon Age. :)

I'm looking foward to it but so far Demon's Souls is my RPG of the year and it's going to take alot for Dragon Age to beat it.

So i know its an RPG but its not a JRPG :P.. not intrested :P.. oh if its something like Demon Souls i might buy it.. will put a close eye on this game

Win.......i really cant wait.........whos everybody going to make first......im thinking about making a certain warrior princess in the game........ummmm i dont know with the name XENA.....i cant wait for this game......then mass effect 2, AHHHHHHHHHHHHHh too many rpgs.....might overload!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think i've been pretty unfair on this game in the past. Reading reviews, previews and watching videos has made me see how amazing its going to be. I wont be getting it this year (since im out of gaming funds).

The RPG genre is in fall swing lately. Demon's Souls and Borderlands in October, Dragon Age now, FFXIII (import) and FFCC in Decemeber finished off with the epic Mass Effect 2 in January. I truly feel sorry for those that dont play RPG's (theres alot, trust me), Missing out on that much goodness is beyond silly.

Indeed. While Demon's Souls is technically a JRPG, it took many, and I mean many, of its elements from WRPG's.

It may probably win it. Looking forward to it hopefully its at least half as good as BG and no dumbing down occurred by adding consoles to the equation.

[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]

[QUOTE="mythrol"] This comment makes me LOL. Some people trip me out with their obsessive belief of anything and everything Japanese being better. Put it to you this way, Demons Souls and Dragon Age are a lot more similar than Demons Souls to standard JRPGs.mythrol

....It should probably be classed as a Diablo clone which has a few new tricks up its sleeve. :P

this game looks good so far I might keep my eye on it and get it for christmas

Hmmm i wonder has any of those reviews mentioned the bad lip syncing? Nidget

So NOW it is ok to post scores from sites no one has ever heard before, uh?? :roll:

I love SW.

IIRC lems still complained about it.

[QUOTE="Midnightshade29"][QUOTE="DaViD_99"] IMO Demon Souls looks better. Im not interested at all in this one. I really want DS though...and a ps3... There you go :P And it says may be best rpg of 2009 with smiley face, and I do think Demon Souls is a RPG game from 2009. But so far Bowser's Inside Story is my favourite RPG this year.

DaViD_99

did you play knights of the old republic? your being awfully negative about an rpg masterpiece the likes of which we only see once every 5 years or more...you even like RPG's?

GreenGoblin2099

It's not an exclusive, thus there's no System Wars meta game attached.

I like this line in the review.

PC Gamer calls Origins' gigantic environment "the most enormously detailed game world I've experienced, its history stretching back thousands of years, its cultures vivid, beautiful and flawed, the battles enormous, the humour superb.

and this.

"The November issue of PC Gamer Sweden will feature a 13-page* Dragon Age review. Rumoured it's got the highest rating on a game that they have given a game in 4 years."

Meh!! It's ok, man... not like I care about this stuff. Was just saying.

another good one :)

Like playing one of the most engaging games of your life on an emotional rollercoaster suspended between an excitable pair of moral pendulums. An engaging, emotive, thrill-packed joy ride of an RPG whose quality exceeds anything we could have possibly expected.

Better than Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Demon's Souls, eh? Stevo_the_gamer

would you expect anything less?

Can't wait for DA:O, have the collector's edition preorder for PC. ^_^
