PC gamers ..................We OWN ALL.............

We have Mass Effect! and it is better than XBOX360 because it has a revamped HUD, which allows you to give INDIVIDUAL COMMANDS to Squad MEMBERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GHOST RECON could not even do this!!!!!!!!!!!!! GHost recon force the whole group to do something, but could never individual give commands.

FOR THIS REASON ALONE.....................AND ON THIS SPECIAL DAY...............I AM PROUD TO BE A PC OWNER..............

btw i have gta4 and i give it a 9 out of 10 ...........but a 10 out of 10? :shock: as goofy would say "somethin wrong here"

I'm still sitting here waiting for EB to phone me telling me it's in. I live a 5 minute walk from them so if they don't phone by 2 I might walk over and see what's up.

All the previous GR games. So if GRAW2 is different, it must be the first in GR games to allow it.

lol I'm having the same problem. Apparently Amazon is going to be in stock on the 30th now looking at their Mass Effect page:|. They pulled the same **** with AoC on me so this is pretty much it. I'm canceling this and never ordering pc games from them again.

That's really crappy about Amazon. I've bought so many things via Amazon but I don't remember if they give estimated shipping dates before or after the purchase. Anyone know?

I went to my local Best Buy and Microcenter. Nuthin'.

But I see that you can download it from Gamestop.com. Is that a bad idea?

I've bought a lot of stuff from Amazon in the past and have never had an issue. Is this a fluke?

No Securom and 3 max installs for X360 so MEX360 > MEPC.

No sadly it's not. My shipping date was the 28th and now they are apparently stocking my order as you can see here

Also they shaved off my $10 pre-order redemption for a mistake that was theirs in the first place.

Acutally in Ghost Recon Advanced Warfigter 1 you could give individual commands. I really hope GRAW 3 is released, the difficulty and realism is top notch in the current instalments.

Speaking of Amazon. Way back when I had WoW: BC pre-ordered I got a email saying I would be in the 2 or 3rd shipment. This was like a few days before the release so I told them to cancel and I went and pre-ordered it at a local store. A week later I get a box from Amazon with the game. So, they were completely wrong of when exactly my copy would ship and then they didn't even cancel it. I won't even go into the massive hassle I went thru when I ordered a DS Lite from them and it wasn't even a pre-order. I stopped going to Amazon after their horrible customer service and horrible inventory status.

And I will be playing Mass Effect on the 360. I won't install anything that has a functional Securom on my PC.

I'm no pirate, so I don't know first hand, but googling it, it seems this would be accurate. It looks a bit complicated but, just like any other form of protection, it's useless against the combined intellect of hackers, poor people, and those that hate being told no... Wasted money BioWare...

This is true, Bioshock used it and you can torrent it. In fact, I know lots of people who bought Bioshock retail and then pirated it just because the crack doesn't use securom.

It's a real nightmare to find the game in Canada for someone who don't have a credit card :\

At ebgames they were looking at me like it was impossible that the pc would get that game they even tryed to sell me the xbox version... Tryed 6 shops, including a Wall Mart (shame on me). Either this game is the most popular pc game ever or EA decided that Canada=Europe and we have to wait another week before getting the game :(

I wonder what you think about the game when you've finished it. You're beyond excited about this title, lol. No game can live up to that amount of expectations.

true. i should calm myself before starting to play it. but everything i have heard about it and seen tells me this game will be quite magnificent. and even if it's a letdown compared to my lofty expectations of it, i'll still be able to enjoy it, as long as the game's good. my gut feeling is that it's kotor with better combat - can't beat that.

Just remember that the main story is REALLY, REALLY good. I'm this close to getting the PC-version, I hate some of the annoying things in the 360-version. DRM be damned...

Just remember that you have a lot of awesomeness waiting for you at the end, if the grinding on dead planets gets to you.

Picked it up before work today, at work now. I beat it on the 360, and it was far and away my favorite game of 2007. I can't wait to beat it a few more times on PC :)

you know, that's becoming more and more appealing to me, especially after experiencing the awesomeness of vampire's story. i don't think i've been as immersed in a game since...fallout 1 & 2 - in fact, i think vampire's the most immersive game of all time. i've slogged my way through too many games in which i barely paid attention to the story and dialogue, because they were so freaking dull. i think a great story is exactly what the doctor ordered. yes, i threw a bone at your direction. :)
