    This is awful. This is the cancer that is killing video games. I hope no one supports EA/Bioware with this DLC crap especially when they cut an entire character out of the game.

    And not just a character but someone who has been vital to the role of the entire games. The game was all about the protheans existing before everyone else and their importance, and the one character related to this is TEN EXTRA DOLLARS.

    This is absolutely appalling and no one should support this ****.

    That a lot of coin for a game! That said I will not buy any DLC for Mass Effect 3. It's unfortunate the masses still will.

    *edit: I haven't bought DLC's for any game, except Deus Ex Human Revolution - The Missing Link.

    I can see them milking the crap out of it. With that in mind i'm going to wait until they stick everything in a single bundle and then i'll consider getting it. If they don't do that, then i'll play it at a buddies, just to see the end of the story. [kewlpics]

    I don't see the correlation between the title and the article. I see $80 gets you all but one of those things. Why would you buy 13 different items to get the same code? Writer of article needs more productive work.

    Edit: EA just announced preorders have exceeded their targets already.

    That's good for EA. But other than that, what does that show?

    I also wonder how much more money they spent on advertising this go around on mass effect. The marketing is literally everywhere, it better be more than the last game.

    I cant go anywhere or watch anything on tv / website video without seeing a god damn commercial telling me to save the galaxy.

    Because we all know when a game has a TON of hype it always turns out to be great.
