Dragon Age *possible spoilers*

Been confirmed now by Chris Priestly(Community Coordinator of BioWare). He said more info on the different editions,ect to follow at E3.
 
Box art revealed. This is from the US eastore, it was uploaded to a different site by some of the bioware US forum guys so that others can also see. If you try and access the us ea store it will redirect you to SA eastore and the sa version doesn't even have the game listed yet.

I really like the Dragon logo.

More previews.

It looks like these Bioware guys are on the ball to me. That Dragon Age trailer with the heavy metal music and the blood all over the place is just a gambit to get the dumbs to buy the game. At it’s heart, it’s clear Dragon Age: Origins is going to be a thoughtful RPG in the tradition of Baldur’s Gate. God bless you boys at Bioware and keep ‘em coming.

The most interesting thing about the IGN article was the comments on the visuals of the pc version compared to the xbox 360 version. They seem to think the pc has got quite an advantage. We already know the pc gets the toolset and mods and the consoles don't. Also learned the pc version has 10 quick keys compared to the xbox 360 having only 6. So far it seems that the version to get if you are undecided will be the pc version. Not trying to turn this into a pc vs console debate just merely mention things that I have learned and notice this week which may help those thinking about what version they will get, obviously things can change especially for the console version by October.


BioWare also showed off the Xbox 360 verison of the game for the first time (all the demos to this point have been running on the PC). Obviously, the interface has been tweaked to work with the Xbox 360 controller, but the big news here are the visuals. If you want the best looking version, stick with the PC, as the Xbox 360 version just lacked the razor crisp high-res textures and the sophisticated lighting of the PC game. We're not sure what the PS3 version looks like, as it's still unseen at this point.

One has to get epic RPG's on the PC ... there is no question about it. My Xbox will never see an epic RPG that is available on PC too ;)

Assuming that everyone who has a 360 has a PC who can run those better graphics, haha. I think many people buy consoles so that they don't need to worry about constant PC upgrades etc.
 
Some info on system requirements, always useful.

Some quotes from Ray and Greg on system specs:

- will be revealed on the website 'shortly'
- pretty modest, won't require a top-end pc
- scaleable, designed from the ground up to run well on systems that are several years old, but also to take advantage of new hardware too
