*Thinks about the first kind of Hawke I want to play as* Oh you are extra mean, even have one of the NPCs I want as a constant in my party.

If that's something you actually do in-game, like count out the score "One, two, three!" (LOTR ayone?), you've just proven all the faith that I've had in Bioware over the years is totally worth it.

"How many do you have?"

"43."

"Argh. 41."

"Sweet, you pay for drinks this time."

I'm calling it, the first mini-game to be universally loved by all players.

Now you've slipped into teasing!   Obviously you can't get into specifics, but how does the feel of playing DA2 on the 360 compare to the feel of playing DA:O on the 360?

Better, I think, but I'm about as biased as it's possible to be. The key changes are being able to issue move-to-point orders from the radial, so you can move your party around, and since you can pretty much count on your characters to fire/act sooner to when you push the button, there's a snappier response. Personally, I've been working on lining up shots that blow through the target, hitting everything in a path; can't do it often in a fight, but it's very satisfying when you do. And if you're teamed up with a mage?

Well....you'll learn more about how that works later.

Combination of magic lightning spells (bzzztt!!) reflecting off arrows into enemies whilst arrows kill currently-shocked/unmoving targets? Yes!

Or, well, any combination of a mage and a ranger doing something awesome like that. Combination stuff, especially well-implemented like I know BioWare would do it, would be so, so epic. Tears of joy.

I like that idea. It would also be cool if you could do a combination of a fire and ice spell to make a pool of water on the ground where the enemies were, and then shoot a arrow with a lightning spell on it into the water. It would be cool...but overall redundant.

That'd be a lot of work, lol. Just freeze them (via mage) and let rip on them with a big 'ol hammer. Smash, smash. Victory!

Unless they're freeze-resistant. Then you have to, like, set them on fire or something. I dunno.

I wasn't sure what platform I'd be playing on, till today. With DA:O I played the console version first on my 360, but bought the PC version when I became aware of several differences (an action bar instead of the radial menu, better graphics, superior controls, a few mods that I liked).

When I got an e-mail about the signature edition and checked it out at an online shop, I finally decided to just get the PC version this time. It'll be just AT LEAST as good as the console version, and quite possibly superior again. Plus, I'm saving like... 14 euros by buying the PC version. For you Americans, that's like... a billion dollars.

I will be playing DA2 on my Pc as i dont own a console.
Why wont i ever buy a console?
The price of the games is a total ripoff, 50 or 60 quid for a game , I go to Steam and get like 8 games for that on the sales.
My rig is far superior to either of the main players in  the console market,, although if Sega ever made a comback i might be tempted .

[SteveGarbage]

I won't be but my brother will. I won't be because I don't have a PS3 or 360. My brother decided to get it on PS3 because he's a whiner that it won't run well on his computer (even though his is miles ahead of mine).

[LuciBae]

I've been agonizing over what to get it on for a while now, but I'll probably do the same thing I wound up doing for Origins: get it on the console first, then get it for PC once the super special awesome GOTY version comes out. I'm enjoying playing it on the PC right now, but I do also like the action-y feel of the game on the consoles.

[Cuthlan]

I will be playing on my new Xbox. I played Origins on PS3, but purchased it on Xbox to have the save transfers for DA2.



I was a strong defender of the PS3 version, but I have to admit that Origins performs better on Xbox (no video/audio clipping). Not to mention updates and DLC came out on Xbox first, so I'm expecting the same for DA2.

[packardbell]

If my PC bricks mysteriously then I'll have no choice to get it on the PS3.

This. But i am really tempted to buy a console whenever the pc dates of some games get delayed. Like AC.

Why do I play on a console? Simple. Huge HDTV, comfy couch.

[Darth Death]

Just pre-ordered it today for the 360.

[CitizenThom]

My pc isn't up to snuff to play the most current games... so I play on a console.



I like playing from my couch, but I'll admit, it isn't that hard with an HDMI connection and bluetooth peripherals to use a pc in the living room. I'll also concede that the availability of the editor and mods on pc is a selling point for the pc version. I'll be enjoying DA2 on the console for one reason really, economy. When upper tier computers cost what my console did, then I'll buy one and start playing games on pc again.

[WingsandRings]

I will be playing on a console for a very simple reason: I own a console, thanks to a nice college friend who gave me hers. I do not own, nor can I afford, a PC that can play DA2. Because I am a pathetic, poor grad student. I buy about one game a year, and this year, it's DA2. (in 2009, of course, it was DA: O)

[Mark1130]

Going to get it for the 360 first. Once the game is fully updated and exspansions have been released, I'll get it for PC.



I have lerned that trying to keep up with updates, mods and thier updates, and getting everything in sync can be just as involving as the game itself. I'm going to wait for the game to simmer awhile this time.

[MindRaven]

I'll be playing it on a console. Whether it's 360 or PS3, I'm not sure yet. I did preorder the Sig edition on the 360, but now I'm debating if I should switch it to the PS3, as I would really like to build up my PS3 collection.



Mike, is it possible you could confirm if the PS3 version will support 1080p like the 360 version ( and if the PS3 version will be the same graphic and performance wise )?



With DAO, the 360 version said it supports 1080p display, while the PS3 version said it supports 720p. Also, there seemed to be some framerate issues with the PS3 version.........

[ObserverStatus]

I'll be playing on the console, because my PC can barely handle SC2.

[C9316]

I'll buy it for my 360, I won't be getting the sig edition (that chance has expired now right?) as I am not entirely looking forward to it, ME3 now that is what I'm excited for.
