I feel Dragon Age is meant to played on a computer, as the combat is incredibly tactical and challenging on the harder difficulty modes and the good isometric view is only available on PC. Also, the console version is slightly gimped to make up for the different controls; 'hard' on console is the same as 'normal' on PC. If you're willing to go for PC versions, I'd recommend Dragon Age - it's a much deeper and more challenging game. While I agree that AC2 was a great improvement over the first, saying that it's 'nothing' like AC1 is inaccurate. It plays, feels and looks just like someone who'd played the first would expect it to; Ubisoft just mechanically fixed a lot of the problems with AC1 in the sequel and added a few new types of side quests. |

While the illusion of busy city around you was really nice, there was pretty much nothing to do other than going from plotpoint A to B and saving couple of citizens along the way. AC2 in the other hand is quite nonlinear. There are sidequests, stuff to explore, etc... Frankly, its closer to GTA than AC1 in many ways. |
