- Forget DRM, this is about the game
Everyone complains about DRM and it has kept me from buying quite a lot of newer games, but in this case I decided to try it. First of all, I love BioWare's titles and the prospect of trying a new RPG intrigued me. So, lets get on to the review.
Graphics:
Nice graphics, the film-grain enhancement makes it look less like a glossy videogame. The faces are pretty standard cartoony stuff, but at least the mouths synch with the voice-overs!
Sound:
Good sound, but ... Read More

- Movie yes, Game no
If i want to watch a movie instead of play a game i will go to the video store/ netflix and rent one. there are far better movies that don't require me to click my mouse to advance the movie. Though i know games will continue to evolve and I'm getting older and more out of touch everyday, i wouldn't call this a game. I do love the visuals and the fact that they tried to make a story, but i have to stick with old rpgs like fallout 3, wow and such.

- Haven't Had Any Issues
I have played the game for around 30hrs so far. The only bug was when I entered an elevator, the elevator would not move and the characters became stuck. I then had to load the last save. I keep settings on max and frame rate is relatively smooth on my 9800gt, Core 2 Duo, 4gb ram computer. The game may take quick (less than 1 second)pauses when loading new areas. This is probably due to my increasingly out dating hard drive. The latest patches seem to keep the game (at least mine) in good shape. ... Read More
Rating: - The BEST of the Best
I held off buying the game mainly due to the licensing concerns and restrictions already posted.However, reaching the price of $25.00 I felt that I would get my moneys worth regardless of the installation limits.
I have NOT been disappointed in any way, shape, or form.I am one of those that have experienced no real problems with the game.In fact I recently had a catastrophic failure of my gaming PC which caused me to move into newer technology and the few "glitches" that I experienced ... Read More
