[Sheva Alomar]

No one believes me.

 

[Lex]

fix'd

What did I do wrong!?!?!?!?!?

Seriously why doesn't it work when I try to post a video?

 

[Joker]

You did the tags right, but instead of posting the entire youtube link, you just use the video's number - it's the part after video= on the link.

 

[Lex]

Ah right, I shall fix it now. Thanks!

For anyone who hasn't already seen this at the BSN or elsewhere -

ME3 gets its first review from Gamestar, a German PC magazine

A few spoilers (duh), a few new tidbits, but mostly things we already knew or guessed

Linked page has the original scan, translation, and another link to the BSN thread

 

[Hisako]

NO

NO SCANNING

GODDAMNIT.

Quickly TLS, advise me.

I'm going through a complete ME1/ME2 playthrough in preparation for the third game's release and I am having a crisis of confidence about staying faithful with Liara when Tali is around being all adorable.

[Alessa Gillespie]

Supposedly this is a trailer that was supposed to appear on TWD tonight but was accidently leaked on the XBox console

Got dayum

 

[Carlie]

Dude just do what I did, wait until you have 2 mission left in the game and the separate it into 2 different save files with one romancing Tali and the other one staying faithful to Liara, problem solved.

@video- I wanted to see how that guy playing Shepard looked like.

 

[null]

He looks like someone's failed attempt to create Default Shepard from customization. The whole thing would have been a lot cooler in CG.

It was eh ok. +10 for emotion, +20 for the looks on churchgoers' faces, -50 for Shepard screwing around alone with no fucking alien teammates again.

 

[Hisako]

I dont mind; at least there weren't any super-deformed CG characters this time around

They're playing around with less epic and moar emotion, which in my books is always a step forward for trailers.

 

[Sheva Alomar]

I think Bioware may be trying a liiiittle too hard to really sell this to the largest demographic possible, imho.

That, or they just have too much money for advertising and just don't know what to do with it.

 

[Rumpelstiltskin]

I'd say the latter is more likely.

 

[Hisako]

Each trailer is probably made from all the profits from the preorders alone,

That said, I don't mind Bioware reaching out for a bigger audience. They've been doing that for a while already, and I think with the quality of their writing they're probably in the best position to do that.

Game UK aren't stocking Mass Effect 3? WHAT IS THIS MADNESS!

Report here.

This fucking better not affect Gamestation, that's where I pre-ordered my N7 Collectors Edition from.

EDITMFG I JUST GOT AN EMAIL THAT MY PREORDER HAS BEEN CANCELLED WHAT THE FUCK.

EDIT2:Guys, where am I supposed to get a collectors edition now? WHERE TELL ME NOW!

EDIT3: All is well. I just pre-ordered it on Amazon. It's also available on Play.com. Here's the link to the Amazon page - N7 Collectors Edition.

 

[Rumpelstiltskin]

Gamestation is owned by GAME and therefore will be experiencing the same shortage of stock.
So yeah your better off going to a supermarket or buying online if you want it.

Although if you do go for buying it from play/amazon I wouldn't count on it being available on day of release as they are both notorious for not sending out the game on time.

Is that really surprising?

I mean, considering Amazon have gone out of stock for ME3 preorders twice already, their load should be ridiculously huge on release.

I'm not expecting mine until a week after release, since everything takes a bajillion years longer to ship to Australia.

 

[Rumpelstiltskin]

Even with pre-ordering things months in advance from amazon/play I have NEVER had a game get delivered on the date of release and that's with paying extra for on the day delivery.

 

[Alex]

Thank god I live 20 minutes away from a Granger Games.

EDIT: Now I am more tempted than ever to wait the extra few days after the games release and pick up the full CE once I get some more money. HMMMM.
