[QUOTE="Gregor, post: 4991147, member: 11751"] Im currently running Dragon Age on the following rig: Intel Core i5 750 Quad Core Processor 2.66GHZ 4GB DDR3-1333 RAM Radeon HD 5850 24 inch monitor Windows 7 OS (which I am surprised to actually like) I am playing the game on maximum graphics and at the highest resolution, which is effectively 1080p (1900 x 1200). I can tell you that on PC, with top graphics and resolution, the game is gorgeous and extremely smooth. Sure there are a few graphical parts that could ideally be improved or pumped up (this isn't Crysis after all) but it seems to me that the developers went for a more accessible and scalable product. I have seen the game run on lower power machines (slower processors and cards one generation earlier than mine) and the graphics were still able to be bumped up with smooth performance. I watched a friend play the game on his 360 and while still extremely enjoyable, the graphics definitely do not look as good as on the PC and the interface is not very intuitive (for me). With respect to the game itself, I am totally buying into the whole "spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate" thing. I played the hell out of the BG series and its IWD friends and I have been waiting for this game since it was announced. I can honestly tell you that Dragon Age is, imho, one of the best roleplaying games I have experienced. There is a bit of a learning curve on their ruleset but I think that will just make for more efficient play throughs once I have it down solid. The races feel distinct and the world is dark and gritty. Check it out. [/QUOTE]
