All the collector's edition, preorder goodies and more FREE, get them while Microsoft doesn't look :)

As of 9:00 AM EST, the Collector's set is still available, but all the others throw a "not available for download on the web marketplace" error.

9.6 on IGN. I know the IGN review has been posted already, but I decided to embed the video review

edit: the youtube embed code doesn't work anymore?

Also, here is an awesome quote from TIME magazine.

"The state of the art in grand-scale, two-disc space operas, Mass Effect 2 picks up two years after the end of the first installment of its galactic-noir story line. With beefier combat added to the role-playing, it's the Avatar of video games — except it's better written."

Saw the advertisement during the NFC Championship game last night (**** you, Vikings!). It was pretty uninspired. Everyone watching was confused about the whole thing.

I think it was a great trailer. The music alone (Heart of Courage) is enough to get me excited to play the game. How was it confusing? From a trailers perspective, it's pretty straight forward.

Avatar is rubbish compared to Mass Effect 2. I detested Avatar even though I am huge fan of cyberpunk/space/technology (sci fi in general). Mass Effect 2 is well written, intelligent and has fantastic pacing unlike Avatar, which was simply eye candy.

Not to mention that Mass Effect has the original (and better) hot/sexy blue aliens.

    • Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe After years of waiting, Rockstar will be solidifying the launch date of Grand Theft Auto VI with the launch of pre-orders next week. While the studio has confirmed a date for this occasion, it is yet to attach a price to the highly anticipated game. So let's see what our readers think it will cost at launch. The Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will kick off on June 25 for digital and physical editions. Unless some last-minute changes happen, the release date will be November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, there's still no information about a PC version from the developer or the publisher Take-Two. Now the question becomes, how much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost at launch? The game is predicted by some analysts to be the biggest launch of an entertainment product ever. With the amount of hype that has been built behind it and with ballooning development costs, Take-Two may price this Grand Theft Auto entry differently from other AAA titles. The current price of a AAA game is $69.99. That norm almost rose to $79.99 before calming down. But with such a massive release, Grand Theft Auto VI may be the game that pushes the boundary again. It's also possible that Take-Two keeps the price relatively low to increase the number of players that jump in early and keep them hooked on Grand Theft Auto Online to spend on microtransactions for years to come. Keep in mind that the below poll is asking for a prediction of the standard edition price, not a deluxe or any other special edition that Take-Two will introduce for additional benefits. Also, there is the chance of the company splitting up the campaign and online portions. If you think that will happen, put your vote on what you think will be the total cost of the two. Poll Poll: How much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost? $59.99 $69.99 $79.99 $89.99 $100 or more Submit Vote If you have a very specific prediction in mind, sound off in the comments below.
