Well it's time to switch my pre-order from the PS3 version to the 360 version on Monday.
This really sucks if you are PS3 only though =/

The media out for the ps3 version is very controlled though. Bioware knows they can't show off a section that will show framerate problems when trying to sell the game. This is why we need real impressions, and these people that played the ps3 version are reliable. They have nothing to gain from trying to mislead people. The PS3 version isn't perfect, news at 10. He didn't say it was unplayable though and if it's your only choice it's better than nothing.
Someday framerate problems will be a thing of the past, I wish. GT5/Saints Row3 better have a steady framerate!

I really believe that if Sony and Bioware would come out and say that mods will be available for the PS3 version, some multiconsole owners might swing back to the PS3 version, despite technical issues.
but right now, theres been nothing concrete said about it one way or another.

Alphasnake, what is the site you're on?

First and foremost, I wish EA makes Bioware do the right thing and release a framerate patch, like EA did with NFS: Undercover early in 2009 (it made the game very playable, and a lot of fun!) Framerate patches are very much legit...and if publishers are forcing games out early, they need to at least abide by their customers and release a proper patch.

That's a big part of why i'd rather get it for ps3, i hate XBL and the small chance of more freedom for developers to put out free/reasonably priced dlc ( brutal legend maps being free for the first two weeks!) on ps3 makes me lean there. But it's also that 360 is crap hardware so i've been trying to buy more ps3 games, and my hard drive is only 20GB so i can only have one game downloaded at a time. It wont be so bad with Dragon Age but it keeps me away from juggling more than one multiplayer game.
Edit:
Do we know how long the Stone Prisoner dlc code will be included with new copies of the game?

yeah sorry, I edited the link.LCfiner said:
It's at 1:50 in the spider cave video. I don't know why you can't see it, but for me there is a very noticeable slow down when the green acid hits her at exactly that time. Maybe check the difference between 1:45-1:48 vs. 1:50-1:52 to put it into perspective?

This mage gameplay is looking pretty neat. I'm not so informed in the fantasy class system outside of FF games (thief, warrior, red mage, etc.). Is thief in this game? I saw a video where a bard had a bow, is that this game's thief? Do bards in these games sing like final fantasy bards?

I just cant see it at that time stamp. thats when theyre fighting that large beast before heeding to the mirror. theres a puff of poison at 1:50 but it still looks the same to me. animation is a little jerky but thats the same across all versions.
I do see some slowdown around 1:30 when they activate some poison traps and the framerate stutters for a couple seconds as multiple traps go off.
the thing is, the slowdown alphasnake is talking about is way more severe than that video.

I am keeping myself from watching any streams, the most I have watched are the Giant Bomb quick looks. Besides, tomorrow I will be preloading it anyway

There are three main classes (Warrior, Mage, Rogue) and each one has four specializations.
Most characters can wield most items, in theory. In practice, items have statistical requirements and certain classes' unique optional talents help some classes make better use of the same gear. Warriors have talents that reduce the burden of heavy armor, for example.
Fighters and Rogues do have vastly different styles in general, but they have access to the same combat talent trees. So either can be good with a bow, if that's what you want.
Bards do have song talents.

Tobor said:That's a dip that's probably coming at some point for me as well, like if I get a bonus in the Spring.
Ill see you in the inevitable OT New Apple Hardware thread, then :lol
so, concerning DA, has anyone had the thought of starting several different character origin stories at the beginning? play a couple hours each as a dwarf and an elf, human, etc and then pick the one that seems most appealing to play for the rest of the game?
Or am I nuts in wanting to try this? It basically means a minimum of 8 or more hours of playtime before progressing anywhere beyond the initial starting areas

About the PS3 version and the possibility of a Bioware select mod selection. Seeing that the game run the way that it does, I figure this mod support has no chance at being a possibility. They're better off sticking to dlc and trying to fix the game if they have the option post launch. Also it's EA, not Epic, money would be involved and I doubt they'd make a deal to give the creators a piece of the profits. That's too much legal stuff.
