Rating:6.5
A decent continuation of the original story and characters. Longer than the DLC but not quite worthy of $40.
I had a good time fighting the darkspawn again, but the addition of the talking darkspawn, architect, mother, and the new slug-like adaptations were dull. The levels were mostly linear, save for a three: black marsh, th... Read Full Review

Best RPG for Xbox360
For me to give a real time battle RPG a 10 speaks volumes. Let's review. Storyline: Amazing. Every event has a strange twist & has more drama than Downton Abbey! I started off as the mage. I feel that is the best stor... Read Full Review

Dragon Age Origins isn't always at its best throughout its 40+ hour quest, but the average experience is very good.
Pros: A lot of grey decisions that impact your experience; A lot of content; Combat is frequently exciting and challenging Cons: Brutal difficulty spikes; Pacing issues; DLC is integrated in an obnoxious fashion I... Read Full Review

I...couldn't...stop...playing O.O
This game was awesome in the least, the amount of replay value was incredible and the specialization system allowed for no play through to be the same as another. Graphics were a bit underwhelming and the formulaic Good ... Read Full Review

Although there are significant flaws, they don't spoil the overall experience of this fine game
When a game has the narrative as the primary driving force, and the narrative just does not stand out, then you would usually have an issue. Dragon Age Origins' story truly does not stand out. It is your bog-standard bi... Read Full Review

Most addictive game ever, don't hesitate to buy if you're looking for endless entertainment!
Not only was this game's graphics the most clean and beautiful I've ever seen, but the game itself draws you in unlike any other. It has no equal on any platform. The dialogue is so complex that you could play it a hundr... Read Full Review

A captivating RPG experience that easily stands shoulder to shoulder with classics like Fallout and Planescape: Torment
Dragon Age: Origins is, in a word, awesome. Think of everything you love (and some things you might hate) about role-playing games, and that's DA:O. I'll get the bad things out of the way first simply because there a... Read Full Review

Classic BioWare. Plays like a Diablo game but in a third person shooter aspect. Read my review for more depth.
So this game is absolutely a by definition BioWare game. You grow attached to your companions, you get immersed in the story, and you actually feel like your choices matter. Once the game is over you're brought back to r... Read Full Review

You'll finish the game before you can ever buy all that cool armor you had your eye on. Kind of unbalanced. Still fun.
After spending 30-50 hours on this game, you might feel disappointed once you beat it. Story, Graphics and Gameplay: This is what was most fun about the game. Every interaction you made with NPC's were recorded dia... Read Full Review
