What do you like better? Shooting or traditional rpg experiences? Both will see you spending a lot of time in menu screens (Dragon Age moreso). Dragon Age is very story driven, a lot of your time will be spent simply talking to people, while Borderlands will always aim to throw into the next action sequence. Also, keep in mind that Borderlands only truly shines in cooperative (at least in my eyes).

I can tell you this much, Dragon Age: Origins on PC is one of the best RPG's I have ever played... I am guessing the only difference between the two would be that the 360 version has slightly downgraded graphics and different combat mechanis...

I recommend it because I played borderlands at a friends place and it was one of the worst games I have ever played... (And I have 44k gamerscore, so I have played a LOT of games... I=Game Nerd)

They're two very different RPGs - Dragon Age is a more traditional RPG whilst Borderlands is really a shooter with RPG elements. It's an easy decision for me but it really comes down to your preferences TC - which type sounds more appealing to you.

Borderlands if you have 3 friends with it. Dragon Age if you plan on playing solo. My advice, buy both ;)

Borderlands, much more action. They are different kind of games obviously, but Borderlands anyway.

Dragon Age Origins is meant to be played on PC, so pick up Borderlands.
