Story
Dragon Age: Origins has redefined the modern fantasy roleplaying game. Now, the innovative game from BioWare becomes the latest hit comic from EA Comics! In a time lost to history, a war ravaged the land. Mages, incredibly powerful wielders of magic, ruled the world through mastery of dark arts and forbidden spells. Their lust for power almost destroyed all existence, and unleashed an unholy pestilence, the Darkspawn, to plague man, elves and dwarves alike. Now magic is carefully controlled, taught behind the sacred walls of the Circle of Magi, and monitored by the ever-vigilant Templars. It is in this arena that a new generation of Mages in training will arise, warriors of sorcery who will defy the rules of the Templars and change the course of the world forever.

Dragon Age is available on the Playstation Store for only $2.45. 

All the information you need is right here.

Get Flirty and Dirty playing games

IGN have posted an article about the new website GameCrush, it’s a pay to play with chicks site.  Interesting concept I think, but the question is, would you pay $8.25 USD to play with a girl online.

The concept is simple.  Browse the girls online – send them an invite to play and if they accept you get 6-10 minutes of play time one on one!  The girls then get paid.  Checking out the GameCrush website – they entice the “Play Dates” with “Earn up to $30 an hour or more!”  Pretty good money if you ask me to play games.

You can search for your ideal girl and what game you want to play.  So for example – find a girl who wants to be flirty and dirty on MW2!  Every guys dream?

Let’s go over the pro’s and con’s of this, for both guys and girls.

Guys

Pros

1. You get to play games with girls!

2. You might actually find that special someone.

Cons

1. Get addicted – get poor very very quickly.

2. Become more of a recluse.

Girls

Pros

1. Get paid to play games.

2. Meet Mr Right.  Well at least you start by having one thing in common?

Cons

1. Dealing with guys being guys.

2. Feeling like you are being pimped.

What do the readers of Capsule Computers think?  I know alot of girls online getting hassled from guys who think that Xbox Live is a dating service or a place where girls are treated badly.  Then there are others who enjoy the attention and have alot of fun playing online with guys – anyone for UNO?

This Week on XBLA (March, 22, 2010)

Deal of the Week:

 

This week, Xbox LIVE Gold members can get great deals on Fallout 3 game add-ons to the extend their fun.
Operation: Anchorage, The Pitt, Broken Steel, Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta are available for 400 points each until March 29th.

Don’t own the game yet? You can download it directly from Xbox LIVE.

Thoughts:
Another Repeat, but always a welcome deal. But you could always buy the GOTY edition. If you already have the game, this deal would be your cheapest alternative if you want all the DLC for fallout 3.
Wednesday Arcade Release:

The game room is free to download, but the games for it will cost $3-$5.

“Remember pumping quarters into your favorite video games at the classic Arcade? Nothing would beat the colorfully-decorated cabinets, the smell of popcorn and candy and best of all, the endless hours of competition with friends, trumping the top score, and mastering the machine.

This Spring, Game Room on Xbox LIVE lets you relive the glory days of the classic arcade. Play as your Avatar and enjoy the original sights, sounds, and gameplay that make these retro games come alive on Xbox 360 and Games for Windows LIVE.” [Via Xbox.com]

Thoughts:
This could be very interesting, we will just have to wait and see. The game room will have 1000g for you to gain, and if the pattern during the march block party continues, it will most likely have avatar awards as well.
