Those Daleks are thrusting their turgid tentacles deeply within the Motherland's tender nether regions!

I'd rather have a sister in a whorehouse than a brother who watches Dr. Who.

Yeah. It's notoriously bad.

Also the bonus of PC gaming is the fact you can try before you buy, without renting.

Cough.

Consoles can do that too, it's just a little harder.

From seeing some let's play threads, I concluded DA is a sort of game that gives the impression it is a very good game at the beginning compared to what Bioware usually delivers, but quickly devolves into something else, as in a new EA "Hey focus all your efforts on the beginning so you give t...

Classic Mass Effect? Eh, I went with the PC version, because it's massively superior. The Mako is easier to use, the inventory system, while still bad, isn't as atrocious as the Xbox version, and we get BDTS free.
