Gamestop has also released a product page for Dragon Age Origins Awakening with the following information:

"From the Makers of the Best RPG of 2009, Dragon Age: Origins, comes the first official expansion pack. For centuries, the Grey Wardens—the ancient order of guardians, sworn to unite and defend the lands—have been battling the darkspawn forces.

Legend spoke that slaying the Archdemon would have put an end to the darkspawn threat for centuries to come, but somehow they remain.

You are the Grey Warden Commander and have been entrusted with the duty of rebuilding the order of Grey Wardens and uncovering the secrets of the darkspawn and how they managed to remain.

How you choose to rebuild your order, how you resolve the conflict with “The Architect”, and how you determine the fate of the darkspawn will be but some of the many complex choices that await and shape your journey as you venture to the new land of Amaranthine."

Cool, the whole story in that game sucked except for the Grey Warden aspect of it.

I loved Warden's Keep and I will love this.

I cannot wait. Dragon age is currently eating into my FFXI time, and I'm really enjoying the story.

My dwarf tank will be embarking on a new journey it seems!

Graphics wise and gameplay wise, PC all the way. All the reviews say 360 version sucks.

Lol at how the gaming industry looks today.

People calling this game long? It's about the shortest RPG ever.

That's incorrect. The 360 version looked just fine, most people were bitching about the fact that they glitched some of the DLC achievements so they didn't actually apply to your gamerscore, and then when you recovered your gamertag they didn't show up at all, nor would they unlock.

Bioware *** up on that, but it doesn't matter. The game was good on 360 just the same. Just don't turn on/leave on the gore setting. I got really tired of seeing my character in a cutscene covered in blood and chunks, even though I hadn't fought for like 10 minutes.

..and certainly not as good as it's hyped. Seriously...I love BioWare too, but I can at least admit when they feed me a mediocre(at best) game.

Huh? Warden's keep was the biggest waste of $$ imo. A 15 minute romp through an easy dungeon, 2 useless abilities, a chest to store stuff you don't need to keep, and to top it off, you can't even go back in after you've completed it! Only thing good about it was the warden armor.

I just finished getting 1000/1000 Achievements on Xbox, and i can happily say im never playing through the game ever again after like 4 play throughs.

I might buy the new Expansion as long as it doesnt clash with other ***that might come out.

Theres a few Glitches for infinite money and infinite EXP if anyones interested~

I'm talking in different terms. All you think about is loot, basically.

I was talking more about the story aspect as well as the variation in location and the richness in setting.

Warden's keep, to me, was how a lot more of that game should have been. Instead of going inside the same house but killing different mobs the whole game.
