re: consoles
Yeah. It's still ultimately about preference. I WANT a console (a PS3 for the exclusives and as a BD player), but it's not a priority (when compared to upgrading/getting a new PC) as most of the stuff I want is on the PC (I can't imagine playing something like Hearts of Iron w/ a controller, even if they ever 'ported' that game )
re: DA:O and visuals
Yup. DA:O doesn't even compare, visually, IMHO, to ME1.
While they did try to do dark fantasy, it was lacking (the abused elves/non-humans, for example, isn't new, and, again, visually, a lot of the darker theme weren't translated well to the screen), esp. in terms of 'atmosphere' (lighting, for the most part, I guess, as well as the environments).
The characters (dialogue and whatnot), on the other hand, were, IMHO, great.
Dragon Age 2 looks promising...too bad it doesn't have the Warden as the main character (maybe 3? And don't reply w/ spoilers from Witch Hunt...I haven't bothered to finish it yet...won't be for a while, too, I guess, since I've started on ME2 again.)
*looks at clock*
I've been playing ME2 for nearly 12 hours? :O
...
And my copy of Civilization 5 is waiting for me at the game store.
