Forums - Gaming Discussion - Dragon Age: Origins will be Exclusive for X360 in NA for 2 weeks

Man, I just came across the Gamestop release date and Dragon Age: Origin will be released on X360 on 11/2/09 and the PS3 version will be released now on 11/17/09. Talk about a bummer, I was planning to get the PS3 version but I might have to switch it over to the X360 version because I cannot wait for an additional 2 weeks for this game. WTF EA.

Anyone know why this game is coming out later on PS3? Is it a same day release in Europe?

They mentioned this about a month ago. The PS3 version was lagging a little behind in development, thus the slight delay in that version



Bioware's new to PS3 development and are probably having problems.



Yeah, it is because of issues with the PS3 development



The X360 got a mini timed exclusive.

Wow I guess I am not as spoiled as some, two weeks is just not long enough for me to even care. But then again if it was 2-6 months I would totally agree with you. But two weeks who really cares which version you will get (this is not a first day game for me so the wait does not bother me).



It's two week. No big deal. I wonder if we will have any Sony fanboys casually pop in here and say "Bioware sucked for years who wants it anyway" or "I was going to get this but screw it, should have been PS3 exclusive anyway, would have been a better game."

You know how they do.

Anyway, this will swing sales slightly, believe it or not.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Yeh I wonder if there's gonna be xbox fangirls that gonna pop in here and throw jabs at the sony fans like " ohhh their gonna go in here and say bioware sucks blah blah blah" even tho none of them are even trashing this thread.....ohh w8.

 

OT: LOL 2 weeks timed exclusive.



Though Bioware claimed there were no technical issues with the PS3 version, and that was just "the order they decided to release them in". Either Microsoft moneyhatted, but then realised that all they could afford was two weeks of exclusivity, or more likely, Bioware are too proud to admit they're having difficulties.

Not much hype for this game so far. I am hoping it is great, Jade Empire was awesome (easily one of my fav RPGs)
