    GameSpy, too, have previewed Dragon Age. Here's what they say:

    The world is traditional fantasy, but is being custom built with its own races and languages. The game will use BioWare's new terrain technology to create a tremendous feeling of height and depth in the game, allowing players to traverse heights seamlessly without loading screens.

    All the animation and lighting is dynamic, while all of the acting is done with motion capture. Each character is rendered in millions of polygons, allowing the player to zoom in as close as they want.

    What makes the combat system unique is that the game can be played in the over-the-shoulder mode of Knights of the Old Republic or in the tactical overhead mode of Baldur's Gate. The player can toggle back and forth in whatever way feels comfortable. The game also utilizes the "combat pause," which allows players to plan strategy while the action is frozen.
