Dragon Age: Origins

The world of Thedas once more finds itself under the threat of the Blight, an endless horde of Darkspawn bent on only one thing, annihilation of all races, complete genocide.

This time, the blight starts in the lands of Ferelden, a supposedly barbaric nation that is proud, but unfortunately, unprepared for what is about to befall it. Civil war will hound you at every turn as you go from savior to enemy, all while collecting your allies to destroy the Archdemon, and the Blight itself. This is your story as you become the Hero of Ferelden!

Sony’s Massive Apology

Sony has now officially made their apology to the consumer, and with a big price tag that’s likely to further dent their already weakened profits. To say the least, this is an apology that is long overdue… but may well lessen the chances of the class action lawsuit growing any larger than it already is.

Sony Corporation Breached…..TWICE…..With a Twist

My job at Anime Secrets is to report to you guys the gaming news that goes on in our region. Do I really get to report all the gaming news out there? Of course not. That’s because I wouldn’t have time for a life, or work.

Sony’s security breach was just that: talked to death before I could really sweep in on it.
