while I'm still not 100% buy status I'm really interested. I like the Art style kinda gives you a Lord of The Rings epic feel.

Even if I decide to buy there is another problem which is PC or PS3. If it plays like a MMORPG (a lot of clicking on Icons with the mouse) then PC it is, but if it's more of a straight forward action/RPG then PS3. Better graphics is not important.

looks like it might be a little bit in between there, although it may be a little better on the pc.  I'm a little torn myself on whether to go console or pc version myself.  Either way though, it's bioware, and it will be an amazing game!

If your PC is beefy, get it on the PC, not only will it be supported by a decent mod community, ign have already noted that the PC version has better graphic than the 360 version (no one has seen the PS3 version but I assume it would be similiar to the 360).

I'm assuming the control will be tailored for the console version though, so if you're only grip is control and you can tolerate inferior (but still good) graphic, then get it for the system of your choice.

The fact that you can create your own stories and adventures really has me excited!

Hopefully it sells really well and really takes off so we get a big variety of community generated content.  I'm a little worried right now that it is flying under the radar.  There aren't too many people that are all that hyped about it.  I think bioware needs to get out there and let people see more of what this game is capable of, because release isn't that far away at this point.

It's the new RPG coming out from Bioware for the PC, PS3, and 360 this October 20th.  Check out the gameplay vids in the OP to see what it is all about.

I was looking at some of the class structures for this game and they seem pretty epic too. You start out choosing between 3 different base classes, warrior, rogue, and mage. Then as you go through the game, based on your play style and choices new specialized class options become available. There is also suppose to be tons of endings. I think the replay value of this game is through the roof :)
