So excited about it spelling went out the window. ^_^


First play through I did just standard so I can reload saves etc. After that I'll be doing a Classic difficulty Iron Man. (Pretty much no manual saves/loads/difficulty.)

Few games have good easter eggs or out right cheat stuff outside of console commands so it is funny that they have the following. (Uber soldiers with faces/names of famous people in gaming industry.)

Is this an RPG, FPS ? This post has me wondering if we could talk the Mods into a games thread. It's always nice to see what people think before plunking down 50-60 bucks.

For any of you guys that have Origin, EA let out a coupon that nets you $20 off any game. the code is OS3874XVC

From another forum:

Note that this code only seems to jive for North American audiences, and not all games in this price range work. Still, we’ve seen success with the following list of titles:
Battlefield 2
Battlefield 2142
Battlefield: Bad Company 2
Bulletstorm
Burnout Paradise
Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight
Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3
Crysis
Crysis Warhead
Dead Space
Dead Space 2
Dragon Age: Origins
Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening
Dragon Age II
FIFA 12
Mass Effect 2
Mercenaries 2: World in Flames
Mirror’s Edge
Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit
Need For Speed Shift II: Unleashed
The Saboteur
Shank
Sim City 4
Spore

I used it to pick up Need for Speed: Pro Street last night. Mass Effect 2 is an awesome game, if you are looking for something new to try. I got tmleadr03 hooked on it earlier this year

I have it, love it!

Playstation? Or CPU only?

Had the original, loved that game.

I think it's PC. It's out? When did it come out.. I was just at best buy and didn't see it..

Loved the original. I think I cried when I lost 3 of my guys on a mission to a stupid collision issue in the game..
