Dragon Age: Origins Metacritics review

Here are Bioware's Dragon Age: Origins metacritic review. Bioware is the maker of Star Wars KOTOR and Mass Effect series. No doubt that this fantasy RPG does deliver its promise.

1UP: A
BioWare remains the undisputed master of the Western RPG. Dragon Age maintains and refines BioWare's moral choices, strong character development, and excellent tactical combat while adding a harsh, dark tone overall.

Gamespot: 9.5/10
Incredible storytelling, great characters, and exciting battles are just a few of the things that make this fantasy role-playing game so extraordinary.

IGN: 8.7/10
BioWare's latest masterpiece sets the epic adventure bar high.

Dragon Age: Origins gets a social network of its own

Bioware's upcoming RPG Dragon Age: Origins set to have a social network of its own. Bioware believe that solo play should not be so solo.
When players play Dragon Age: Origins, they have an option to connect to its social network to share information with other players, such as equipment, stats, progress etc. Here is a screenshot.

While this isn't new stuff, Bioware wants solo players to get social, and this is just the beginning. Bioware wants to expand the sharing system by allowing players to see quests completed and real time updates. For example: if a player do a quest and decided to load the previous saves, the stats will change accordingly.
Dragon Age: Origins scheduled to release Nov 3
