Mac Users Will Soon be Able to Play Dragon Age: Origins

BioWare is teaming up with TransGaming to bring the recently released Dragon Age: Origins to the Mac OS. It is scheduled to be available for download on December 21. The game coming to the Mac this quickly is quite the surprise as it usually takes much longer to get games released for Windows. Two versions, Standard and Digital Deluxe, will be available for download. The Deluxe version will feature extra content such as wallpapers and the Warden's Keep add-on. Both versions will feature the Stone Prisoner and Blood Dragon Armor add-ons. OS X Leopard and a Core 2 Duo are required to play, PowerPC Macs aren't supported.

L4D2 Meets L4D1 in The Passing

In an official press release earlier this afternoon, Valve announced the first DLC add-on for Left 4 Dead 2 (L4D2), "The Passing," targeted for an early Spring 2010 release. The Passing "brings the original Left 4 Dead (L4D1) Survivors down south for a meeting with the L4D2 cast, while delivering new single-player, multiplayer and co-operative gameplay for the PC and Xbox 360." Valve stated that players will assume the role of the L4D2 Survivors and merely meet with the L4D1 characters. However, in addition to a new co-operative campaign and arenas for Survival, Versus and Scavenge mode, there will also be a "new co-operative challenge mode of play." Does this mean a 4 + 4 or 4 vs. 4 game mode? No word yet, but let the rumors fly! The Passing will also add a new "uncommon common" zombie class, melee weapon and firearm.

Doug Lombardi, VP of marketing at Valve, is calling The Passing "the most important campaign in the Left 4 Dead story." Only time will tell if it lives up to that.
