There's nothing to prevent them from having the demo's ready for release at the same time across all platforms. Been up all night waiting for this.


Yes there is. . .MS probably won't pay them big bucks if they release the demos at the same time ;)

They could have easily made a mutual arrangement for the PC version to be released through MS. MS is just as much PC as it is Xbox. And I highly doubt MS is paying them very much for a few hour release difference of a simple Demo. DLC's sure. Demo's not so much.

Come on, yelling will not do anything. We must patiently wait.

I know, it was a joke. I've been mad at MS/Xboxes every since the Crysis 2 demo fiasco. The most likely cause is that Xbox live is just better maintained (more paying uses = excellent service).

Also, MS is totally interested in Xbox over PC. They paid a game (I can't remember which, but I read an article in PCgamer or something like that) to be Xbox exclusive.

Yeah, we need a source (as I said before). If I know for sure that it's coming out after I leave for 10 hours then I'll stop hovering on the internet and go do something productive. I really want to play it now though :(

EDIT: thanks :). I was hoping to get some playing of the demo done today. I hope I'll have time when I get home then :P

I'm too tired for a sense of humor so missed the joke in it all. Though I can see them paying for an Xbox exclusive. There's enough PS3 and Xbox exclusive games out there today that it doesn't surprise me at all. I just weep that I had to sell my Xbox, I have DA2 preordered on it and won't even be able to play it on release.

Well, I gotta say, BioWare seem to have removed the vast majority of the problems with the console release of Origins in DA2. Still no tactical overview, but I don't really care - it plays better than many action RPGs even without the tactics menu and pause functions.



Very happy with it.

It wasn't a very obvious joke. Probably my fault :pinched:

Pop a mod in DAO and play it. It's kind of like methodone for the DA crowd. Too bad DA2 doesn't get that option.

Thanks for that.  Though there are people on twitter claiming we won't see the PC demo at ALL Today. I'll trust the faq above them, though I want to sucker punch them in the teeth.  And I don't think having to wait is all that fair... :P

So, that will be about 11AM here.  I suppose I can wait. Barely. :pinched:

well, like I posted:

So if you are waiting for the PC version, you get the demo access Feb 22nd 9am Pacific Standard Time + whatever your time zone is. So the PC seems the the same time worldwide.

The PS3 is the 23rd.

I don't like that we really have no say in what choice is made with the family, it just goes by who you are.

I'm being intentionally vague so as not to 'spoil' anything for anyone. Though if you're going to play the demo, that is a big spoiler in itself, sort of.


Ladyhawke's voice only gets better the more you hear it and so far her mage and warrior outfits look great. I believe us DA nuts will have a grand old time on march 8....it will be worth the wait!!!     :wizard::happy::wub:
