I know I’m a bit late in posting this but before playing this Uncharted 2 would have been top spot maybe followed by Batman: Arkham Asylum but after grabbing a copy of this game less than 48 hours ago I’m pretty sure Dragon Age is the one. It brings back memories of games like Neverwinter Nights mixed with Baldurs Gate and maybe a hint of Mass Effect; all very distinctly BioWare games. The only thing letting it down at the moment for me is the lack of camera zoom and keyboard/mouse support for the PS3 version (all of which wouldn’t be an issue if I had brought the PC version of the game as the sales dude advised.)

“Invited to preview Google Wave”

I received my Google Wave preview this morning but due to the terrible WiFi at Uni/Work I can’t log in to or even visit any https sites. Pretty funny really since the new email service they are using provided by Windows Live uses it which means I can’t even see my mail but back to the matter at hand. I will be posting more info here once I can login later.
