The survival of humanity rests in the hands of those chosen by fate. You are a Grey Warden, one of the last of an ancient order of guardians who have defended the lands throughout the centuries. Betrayed by a trusted general in a critical battle, you must hunt down the traitor and bring him to justice. As you fight your way towards the final confrontation with an evil nemesis, you will face monstrous foes and engage in epic quests to unite the disparate peoples of a world at war. A romance with a seductive shapeshifter may hold the key to victory, or she may be a dangerous diversion from the heart of your mission. To be a leader, you must make ruthless decisions and be willing to sacrifice your friends and loved ones for the greater good of mankind.

Feature: Scalable combat options that let you decide the level of control you have over your party, including NPCs. Issue orders, set your own tactical AI, or take control of any party member to lead the charge.; 6 possible playable preludes known as ‘Origin Stories’ which along with your play, define how your hero character will see the world, how it sees you and sets the tone for the entire story.; Travel across the vast and varied lands of Ferelden; from the conspiratorial halls of the last great dwarven city, Orzammar, to the untamed snarls of the Korcari Wilds.; Dragon Age: Origins will give you deep character customization options including: class, race, appearance, abilities, and equipment.; At the heart of the storm sweeping across Ferelden. Decide the fate of nations, people and, ultimately, yourself. Just remember: for every choice, there is a consequence.

New favorite game of all time This game blew me away. I've never owned another Bioware game except for KOTOR, and I didn't really play it much as I was never a huge Star Wars fan. On top of that, I'm generally not big into RPG's either, although I do enjoy fantasy settings like Lord of the Rings etc, and I had played WoW and EQ. So I was a bit skeptical when I ordered this since it really wasn't my style of game, but after seeing such positive reviews about it's story, I had to. I played through on the casual difficulty setting, because I wasn't interested in constant pausing and micro managing my parties tactics. I just wanted to enjoy the story, and enjoy it I did. I have NEVER played a game that made me care so much about the characters involved. All of your potential party members have great back story and unique personalities that will appeal to certain gamers. Listening to party members bicker, share thoughts and humor really brings life to the game. There actually were moments that made me snicker or crack a smile, something I can't say of any other game that I can remember. The story itself is amazing. I've seen some people say that there are a lot of stereotypical fantasy settings here, which may be true, but it's rare and it's so well done that you won't care. There are plenty of twists throughout, some you literally will never see coming, and you'll be thinking about decisions you've made long after you turn your PS3 off, because you care so much about everyone involved. The "Adult/Dark Fantasy" setting works wonders for the game. Death, war, political, social and sexual tie ins give this game a feel that I haven't came across yet (it doesn't deal with these issues in a childish, over the top GTA way). To close out, if you are on the fence at all, buy this game. The graphics are a tad dated, but hardly as bad as some reviewers say, and the controls on the console are a bit clunky at first (as with any PC port), but they become second nature. If you let yourself get into the game, you will love it. Rating: 5 (R. McIntosh, 2010-02-07) Product reviewed: Dragon Age: Origins

Great game I LOVED this game. It's fun and has a good story. I'm not saying the story is insanely groundbreaking but it is pretty good. I really liked my supporting characters and cared about them enough to do their related quests to learn more about them. The only reason I can't rate the game a 5 star overall is it has a couple pretty bad frame rate areas that you can't really ignore. I know a lot of people care about that so it gets a 4 overall. It has been a long time since I have cared when I finished a game. I liked how this game ended but was sad the story was over. This is a definite must buy for gamers. A word of caution, this isn't a game for kids. There are some pretty mature themes in it that aren't for kids at all. Rating: 4 (Lisa Newcomb, 2010-02-07) Product reviewed: Dragon Age: Origins

Great game! this is another great game from bio ware. The story is good, and the combat is satisfying. This game is not for kids and my only real complaint is a few bugs hear and there and way too many stun attacks but other than that a game worth buying. Rating: 5 (Brian A. Burdick, 2010-02-06) Product reviewed: Dragon Age: Origins

Great Game! This game is a solid RPG with many hours of gameplay. This game returns to the mechanics of RPGs like Baldur's Gate. Rating: 5 (Daulton Lease, 2010-02-03) Product reviewed: Dragon Age: Origins

Awesome Game This is a very fun and pretty deep RPG that I think everyone should play. Whether you game on a 360, a PS3, or a PC, this game will offer you a great story and multiple play-throughs to give you well over a hundred hours of entertainment! Rating: 5 (Joshua W.
