I agree, Dragons Age is totally the way to-Timmaaaah said:

Now, me, cause I'm an idiot with too much money on his hands, got both games and I have to say...I'd really rather I waited till MW2 was 40 dollars cheaper before buying it.
Also, anyone who says that Dragons Age requires no skill either is a moron or is playing on the X-Box, cause in the PC version, if you do not think and plan tactically for almost every single battle, you will get your ass handed too you.
Argh, I just bought Assassins Creed 2 and Borderlands, but my copy of Dragon Age is barely a week old. Choosing which to play is a pain in the ass.
Oh, MW2? Looks pretty good, but I'm probably going to wait till Christmas.

Well Yahtzee is a critic, and as such he's pointing out the bad things about a game. All games have their bad points, and most of Yahtzee's critisism seems to go towards the genre as a whole. And DA:O is the best Bioware RPG I've played so far, so if you played KoTOR, Mass Effect, those and enjoyed them get Dragon Age. If you don't want to play an RPG from the masters of dialouge then get MW2
I was in the store yesterday facing the same dilemma. Ended up choosing MW2 because practically my entire class and most of my gaming friends have got the game so I'm bound to enjoy at least the multi player. The single player's great too, though I'm not that far into it yet.
Do what I did: stop thinking about it, go to the store and buy the game that appeals to you most at that moment (for whatever reason). Then put the other one on your Christmas wish list!

Pretty much this, both games can barely be compared to each other, they're not even the same genre.Fritzvalt said:
The story is still told véry messy, some missions having barely anything to do with the actual story. A game like MW2 doesn't need an uber complicated story. I really liked MW1's story, it's simple, it's sleak, it's to-the-point. MW2's story however, can almost be called pretentious. It wants to be too much, but it ends up being a Micheal Bay-esque action fest. Now don't get me wrong, I like action fests every now and then, but if you try to squeeze such a pretentious story in it, it kinda becomes a bit sour to me.imahobbit4062 said:

Take for example
the russian invasion of the US. Why do they do that? Because they think the US was resposible for the airport terrorist attack. Even setting aside the stupidity of the idea that russia would launch a full scale attack on the US (lol), it's stupid that they would think the US was responsible.
Marakov is a well known terrorist according to the game, and when he runs around in an airport shooting people in front of witnesses and security cameras, somehow the Russians are unable to see the blindly obvious and conclude that Marakov is behind the attack. No, they think it's an American terrorist attack because Marakov shoots the American undercover agent and leaves his body there for the Russians to find. How do the russian know the guys body is an american? What, does the undercover guy have his drivers licence in his pocket or something? How the hell do they not just realize it's Marakov?

I got Dragon Age and don't regret it, I've played the damn thing for around 40 hours so far and I think I might just have hit the halfway point, though with the amount of twists and sudden suprises in the story it could be much longer.
I intend to but MW2 at a later date or i.e when so many of my friends have got it I'll be forced to get it.

why does Shepard turn traitor? OK, he gains power when Russia invades; he's named supreme commander after the invasion. But how does he know that will happen? He'd have to know the Russians would conclude that Americans were behind the invasion (which makes no sense), know that the Russians would then invade America (which also makes little sense), know that he'd be named commander over anyone else, and know that the Americans would defeat the Russians (which is a huge risk) because otherwise it's pretty bad for him. That plan is a house of bloody cards! It's such a ridiculous motivation and plan for a villian.
