So, I finally got around to playing the original Resident Evil 4 - always had it on my PSN but I really don't do horror games. Currently on 3-1 on Easy mode and...

Can I say that I don't find Ashley to be too annoying? The only really big issue I had with her was the catapults chapter because I hadn't given her any yellow herbs yet and she kept dying in one hit.

The Sims games always had expansions and stuff packs which could cost over hundreds of dollars. I remember when The Sims 3 was still getting new expansions they'd cost $40 to $50, while The Sims 3 was still $50 in stores.

I should of specified Dragon Age 1, because yes I agree with you 2 & 3 were mediocre at best.

As to it being better than ME2, I think that's pretty subjective. I've probably enjoyed ME2 more than DA 1 and have played ME2 more than DA1. If I'm comparing the two objectively, I maintain that DA1 has a more interesting story, your player character interacts with the world in a much more fun and dynamic way, DA1 plays with some common fantasy tropes in interesting ways (especially for a fantasy RPG of that time). The characters/companions are probably pretty comparable. Gameplay is way too different to really compare.

I still stand by my statement that people overrate ME's story content.
