GameStop Leaks Dragon Age: Origins Ultimate Edition
Dragon Age: OriginsIf you missed out on BioWare's excellent role-playing adventure, Dragon Age: Origins, you can play catch-up with the Ultimate Edition.
According to a new listing at GameStop.com, this Ultimate Edition will indeed become a reality on October 12. Unfortunately, we don't have any additional details, but we're prepared to guess: given all the extra DLC available for the RPG, we'd like to assume it'll all be included in the new special edition. It'll cost the standard $59.99 amount but as the game will be about a year old by that time, the extra cost for an "old" title must indeed encompass plenty of extras and goodies. Evidently, the Ultimate Edition will release for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC on the same day and it should act as the perfect lead-in to Dragon Age II, which is scheduled to drop in March. Basically, you should probably think of this as a Game of the Year Edition of sorts and of course, we highly recommend it. We gave it RPG of the Year in 2009 so it stands to reason that we really loved BioWare's effort.
The only question is whether or not you'd want to nab this over other newer titles set for October; that month is - as usual - downright loaded. But we don't see many RPGs, so...

however, i am just not ready for extra stuff... i am ready for fallout new vegas and this game became my summer binge once it finally sucked me in after about 15 hours... the story really pulled me in and has yet to spit me out...
but, i recommend this for anyone who has been interested like myself... there's probably at least $50 worth of DLC on this disk... i bought the bare model for $30, and even that's enough to make it to october 22nd... 6 origins and at least 3 playthroughs :D... time is starting to quickly approach that infamous date with vegas nowadays...

Maybe try it on a harder difficulty than easy.
Because when you turn up the difficulty and magic starts to fly, you kill your own team just as easily as the bad guys.

I'm playing it after 40 hours of Demon's Souls (just taking a mental break for a few weeks) and it's taking a bit of getting used to a more traditional RPG format.
So as long as you buy it for the role playing, atmostphere and the narrative you'll be ok. I'm just going to stick it on easy and play it for the story.

However this just reaffirms my decision to not purchase Dragon age 2 on release day. I bought DA:O on release day and my support was met with the same response it often is. For being a fan and supporting them I am required to pay twice what others will pay.
So when Dragon age 2 comes out I will wait until it's special edition is released with all content and then because I have waited so long I'll wait until I can snag that collection for $40.
I just don't see a point in spending $150 for something I can wait and get all of it for $40 or less.

That's one of the reasons I rarely buy new right away.
The same thing happened to Fallout3, with all 5 expansion packs being included in their later released GOTY version, which I think would have totaled at least a hundred bucks(US)if everything was bought separately.
After even waiting a bit more on the newer GOTY version, I was able to get the whole kit & kaboodle at Gamestop for only $40 new during their Power sale.

I am excited for quite a few games, but I'd rather pay $60 for the game and all the add ons than $200. Cost of add ons has gotten ridiculous. I counted today and DA:O has over $90 worth of add on content. That's just wrong.
