As a frugal geeky nerd, you know that we can't resist a bargain on a great game! For a limited time, Origin is offering PC gamers a chance to download the standard version of the game for free. To download, users will need to sign up for a free Origin account, and download the Origin Client Server in order to be able to download DRAGON AGE™: ORIGINS and other EA titles.

Once you've downloaded the Origin Client, log in to your account. You can find DRAGON AGE™: ORIGINS Under the Free Games Tab under On the House.

The game is reminiscent of your favorite old school RPGs with it's focus on the development of character and attributes. At the beginning of the game you will choose between three races: human, dwarf and elf as well as three occupations: mage, rogue and warrior. You then choose between six different origin stories to begin the game.

As you play the game, you will quickly notice that there are not any easy choices, and the choices that you make determine how other characters treat you in the game. As you travel from town to town exploring and completing quests, the choice is yours as to whether you want to be a morally upright hero or a dastardly evil anti-hero.

This game was developed by BioWare, published by Electronic Arts - EA, and originally released on October 31, 2009. If you have never played the game, or if perhaps you did once, but it was so long ago that you've lost the disc or download, now is your chance to immerse yourself into the expansive world and dark age of the title. The game isn't for children, as the blood, gore, violence and adult themes have earned the game a Mature ESRB rating.

The sequel to the game, DRAGON AGE™: INQUISITION becomes available November 18th, so now is the perfect time to get in some game play on this timeless RPG adventure classic!
