    If it's one thing that the F2 engine does well is gfx and sound, just depends if Bioware make the most of it in terms of story/gameplay/design. DA2 was a big let down for me, so I'm definitely not going to preorder like I did DA2.

    EA must either really have faith in FB2, or is just gonna milk it for every last drop.

    FB2 will also be the basis for Mass Effect 4.

    I'd say it cost them so much to make that they will use it for most of their games now

    These days there's only a few game engines running most of the games. Unreal tech or Crytech engines mostly. EA are probably hoping Frostbite becomes as popular since their using it for a C&C game as well. Biggest problem with Frostbite games seems to be those huge patches to even fix the smallest of bugs.
