I'm really really looking forward to this game, I want it for PS3 but it sucks it comes out a little later >_<

+1 Same here :) Was hoping someone would make a Dragon Age Origins thread and now it's true :p I am definitely getting this game on PC since imo this game is easier to play on the PC than controller.

O man that comic was epic just like the game. Went through the character creator and set up 4. Man Im gonna spend all my time untill Mass Effect 2 playing through this game, screw MW2 lol. And dam the soundtrack sounded great.

I can't wait for this. I am such a huge fan of Bioware! I absolutely loved Baldurs Gate, and the first NWN, and Mass Effect.. and pretty much everything they've ever did! I picked up Risen for PC, and it's pretty fun, reminds me of The Witcher. It will hold me over until November 3rd!

XP MINIMUM SPECS

They are asking for quite a bit more for those that run Vista. Either way, one usually need to have the recommended specs to fully enjoy something like this.

RECOMMENDED SPECS

* CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4Ghz Processor or equivalent - AMD Phenom II X3 Triple-Core 2.8 GHz or greater

* RAM: 4 GB (Vista) or 2 GB (XP)

* VIDEO: ATI 3850 512 MB or greater - NVIDIA 8800GTS 512 MB or greater

DVD ROM (Physical copy)

20 GB HD space

While many Neowinians can probably handle this, it means upgrade time for me. Again there are asking for significantly more RAM for those running Vista (twice as much in this case).

Thanks for posting that, Fred Derf. I exceed all the recommended specs except for the CPU. I have an Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 @ 3.2 GHz. It should be enough to run it at medium-high settings.

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.
    • Macbook Air is an appealing option, as are plethora of Windows devices with various different CPU's
    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
