    Was listening to the gamespot podcast earlier. They were saying the console versions look/preform fairly poor compared to the pc version (especially if you've just finished uncharted on the ps3) with the 360 version coming out worst. Lots of jittering due to loading. Perhaps a hard drive install would help it.

    Downloading my pc version from D2D at the moment.

    I've never preloaded a game from Steam before - how long does it usually take? I started preloading Dragon Age at about 9pm there and it's on 8% 40 minutes later. I was hoping to have it ready for midnight :(

    So for anyone thats played it is the combat hard to get use to?

    Its like any other RPG on the PC, sometimes its hard for a character to get close to enemies in small places, doors and the like.

    God damn it! I can't get past the character creator - the game hangs the whole pc after about 5 minutes. This has reminded me why I've grown to detest pc gaming.

    Anyone preorder this for the XBOX?

    I just got the codes emailed to me for the preorder DLC items, and they are 20 digit codes, codes for the XBOX should be 25 digit. Needless to say they didn't work.

    Anyone else get the codes for the xbox and did they work?

    I preordered off Game.co.uk, probably wont have the game until next week, It didn't arrive today.

    I jumped ship years ago, and haven't looked back since.

    Do you not enter the code in on the Dragonage website? That's what you do for the PC version and when you log into the game you get the DLC when it logs onto their server. Not sure if that's how the Xbox version works.

    It says in the email to go into the Redeem Code option on the Xbox dash and enter the code.

    But that option only accepts 25 digit codes, not the 20 digit ones provided by game.co.uk.

    The PC ones are 20 digit, so that's why I just thought it might be for that.

    Will wait till I get the game, maybe there is a redeem code option in game.

    If any here gets the xbox version, let me know did their codes work.
    Thanks

    I just found this page: http://daforums.bioware.com/viewtopic.html?topic=702436&forum=135

    Apparently you enter the codes in-game.

    G2play.net have a few copies still available, both normal and deluxe. Just bought the deluxe version myself for a tad over 35 euro :)

    Downloading the additional content now and ready to get stuck in, looks pretty damn good.

    Game's prices are a bit high, aren't they?! They've normally been pretty good in the last year. I saw Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 in there for €60 the other day, no way...

    feck that, I'll get it when it goes below €25.

    Is this a game you can play for an hour at a time, or do you need an evening set aside to get into it?

    I'm in the same dilemma, PC or Console..After many years of not buying the latest games because my rig couldn't handle it, I have jumped ship and bought a modern console.:rolleyes:
    What I was wondering is, are there going to be expansion versions at a later stage as with Fallout 3? And as with that game is it only going to be available on the XBOX 360 version and NOT for the PS3??:confused::confused::confused:
    If anyone can enlighten me BEFORE I get the game I'd be grateful...My birthday is in a few days time you see :D:D:D:D:D

    What version were you trying to get? I'm playing it and it's amazing, best game I have played in ages. I love everything about it from the combat to the story.
