Dragon Age II is a single player role-playing game (RPG) for play on the Xbox 360. Epic sequel to the BioWare developed 2009 Game of the Year, Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age II continues the adventure with a new hero, Hawke, and utilizes the choices made by the player to affect a story that spans ten years worth of time in-game. Additional game features include: the ability to choose your character's class and sex, a new cinematic in-game experience, a nonlinear narrative and the ability to import saved information from earlier Dragon Age games.
Embark on an all-new adventure spread across a ten-year span of years with an all-new hero in the multiple award-winning Dragon Age saga. In Dragon Age II you are Hawke, said to have been one of the few to survive the destruction of your homeland. Forced to fight for survival, you gathered the deadliest of allies, amassed fame and fortune and sealed your place in history, eventually becoming in effect a legend in your own time. But legends are all in the telling.
Dragon Age II utilizes a nonlinear narrative, taking the form of a story-within-a-story that hinges upon your exploits as told by the storyteller, Varick. Yet like any good storyteller, Varick tends to exaggerate from time to time. When questioned on events related to Hawke, Varick may present a different scenario in which Hawke's exploits play out. It is within these replays that the decisions of the players hold sway, as their particular versions of Hawke relive these events. Is the player's particular version of Hawke, male or female? A warrior, a rogue, or a mage? Is Hawke good-natured or something less than a salt-of-the-Earth type? Is romance in the air amongst characters he/she associates with? These choices are all the player's to make and each affect the the outcome of the story at all levels.
Features:
- Embark upon an all-new adventure that takes place across an entire decade and shapes itself around every decision you make
- Determine your rise to power from a destitute refugee to the revered champion of the land
- Think like a general and fight like a Spartan with dynamic new combat mechanics that put you right in the heart of battle whether you are a mage, rogue, or warrior
- Go deeper into the world of Dragon Age with an entirely new cinematic experience that grabs hold of you from the beginning and never lets go
- Discover a whole realm rendered in stunning detail with updated graphics and a new visual style
- Story-within-a-story nonlinear narrative style

Dragon Age 2 (PC/Mac Dual)
Dragon age 2 is one of the best games so of 2011, it has a great story, great characters and an improved combat system however it does have some issues like recycling levels far too often. The skills system has seen a vast improvement with more skills to choose from and each allies has a unique skillset.

underwhelming
The successor of Dragon age:origins is here,unfortunately with many flaws.Even though i don't like the term it applies 100% here,the game is consolised,simplified to a bad degree. You start out low,a refugee who has just escaped from The Lothering as it gets destroyed by the darkspawn. The game maintains the classic "from zero to hero" rpg-feeling cause by the end of the game you own a mansion and are the champion of the city.Your choices affect the world around you.The story is unfolded through the narrative of varric,one of your party members as he is questioned by a chantry inquisitor. The characters vary from interesting,like varric with many funny one-liners,to downright annoying like fenris whose only job is to complain about mages in every single sentence. Gameplay is the"blight" of the game.In their effort to make it more fast paced and less complex they created a bad rpg-action hybrid.For example you have unlimited bombs,enemies that appear from nowhere(destroying any hope for strategic combat).The only good things are same animations,like backstab and the insane amount of blood.There is also a bad difficulty curve.At normal its a peace of cake,in hard its just medium but in nightmare its cheap and not even worth playing. Most of the quests are simple fetch quests or go there kill that.Its easy to notice the downgrading of the quest system just by the fact that no stat affects the dialogue,its just the classic good bad choice with a middle"smartass" one thrown in. Its an ok game to pass your time but in now way does it live up to the dragon age name.
