The latest in this year’s string of blockbuster pushbacks comes courtesy of BioWare. Their new RPG, Dragon Age: Origins, has been bumped from the original October 20th release date to November 3rd.

The delay began as a rumor based on altered release dates at several major retailers. BioWare quickly denied the rumor, claiming they were sticking to the October 20th release. Just a day later they officially confirmed the delay and announced the new release date.

What does this mean for you? Well for one, you’ll be waiting to get that freak on with the animal of your choice. For another, not a whole lot. The release was still far enough away that it shouldn’t affect anyone too terribly. What they would be changing this late in the process is beyond me, but I’m not really the developing type. The Playstation 3 version of the game has been delayed with the PC and Xbox 360 versions, though without a set launch date.

BioWare will be releasing a collector’s edition of their up and coming Dragon Age:Origins that includes something special for you Mass Effect fans. The tin case fantasy RPG will include an unlockable item for BioWare’s OTHER up and comer, Mass Effect 2.

Those of you ready to drop some big bucks on the single player game from BioWare will get treated to the standard CE fare. This includes “making of” footage, a soundtrack, trailers, wallpapers, concept art, etc. You’ll also get a cloth map, 3 exclusive in-game items, and that special item for Mass Effect 2.

Gamestop’s got their pricing information posted. For PC users, you’re looking at a $65 tag. Xbox 360 owners will pay a full $75. Worth it for the cloth map?
