Well I've heards its pretty good Im a huge RPG fan I usually prefer rpgs like Oblivion, morrowind, and fallout 3 but I just finished playing Fallout 3 and Oblivion for a good while, however Dragon Age is still pretty expensive at the store $49.99 so, I heard PC gamers can get up to 60 hours in this game, but my PC cant run it so is this game good for the 360?

I'm not really into games with dragons but since it was made by Bioware it HAD to be good. I got it for x-mas and played it non-stop for a month, it's brilliant. The game world is pretty big too so you will be playing it for a while if your doing the side quests (better to do the side quest first since you can't play them after the final mission) and the main story. I say give it a go, you wont regret it!

I would say wait a year for the GOTY edition to come out. You'll benefit in the long run.

If you're a big fan of RPGs, and if you liked Oblivion and Fallout, you should definitely get it. It's like those two games + DA Origins are three very different kinds of RPGs, and all three get it right. You'll enjoy it. But remember - you're a lot less "free" in DA than you are in Fallout and especially Oblivion.

Ive got a couple of friends that have it. One on pc and one for xbox. They both really like it, but everything that I get is that it is just a little better for PC, especially from a control/camera angle standpoint. Ill be getting it soon, because I too really enjoy rpgs, but Ive luckily got a pc able to run it, so Im going to get it for that.

A game of the year version hasn't been announced and they are releasing an expansion next month so even if they do it won't be any time soon..

Yes, and it's close to 100hrs if you do everything.

I'm going to get it at some point this year, but I am currently dominated by ME2. I don't have room for similar multi playthrough epic right now.
