I let him join the party buy haven’t used him, I prefer Leliana since she occasionally seems to be making advances to Morrigan during some of the background conversations. But I wanted to have him around in case Leliana gets pissed that I’m sleeping with Morrigan and wants to bail.

You can "harden" Leliana so she doesn't go on about the Maker, and will let you have threesomes (and destroy artifacts).

Nope. I believe you are confused. The PC version has been available since before Christmas. Perhaps you are referring to console versions?

No. DA2 had a simultaneous release on all platforms (PC, 360, and PS3), on March 8th in the US and 11th in Europe. The pre-order bonus ran until January 11th. So I am still confused.

So am I. I received it as a Christmas present from my wife and have been playing it ever since. I even looked it up online to make sure it wasn't an expansion pack I was confusing it with. Same box. Same story line.

Thanks for that. I’ve purposely avoided looking up to much info on the internet about the game play so as not to ruin my first play through.

The release date was March 8th on PC and consoles. Stores get games in stock well before the release date but they don't sell them to customers before that date.

thought about getting homefront on xbox360 but will probably just rent it and test out hte multiplayer. I hate spending $65 for a game these days...

The next game I will pay full price for is Gears of War 3.

I don't know, and I'm confused, but Murph is right .
