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

http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/106/1063174p1.html

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

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6g7Tp6sb3wg

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.

      Get $50 of aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim credit for just $24.97 by Steven Parker Today's highlighted deal comes via our Apps + Software section of the Neowin Deals store, where you can save 50% off aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler Lifetime eSim Credit: Pay $24.97 for $50. Stay connected affordably in 120+ countries/regions with your own lifetime eSIM! An eSIM is a digital SIM card. It's basically just mobile data. Once it's activated on your device, it can connect you to data networks in other countries – giving you an internet connection with NO roaming charges. With aloSIM, you can load prepaid eSIM data packages onto your phone, tablet, or computer. Your lifetime eSIM never expires, so it's yours forever and there are never any monthly charges. You'll get $50 in eSIM data credit, which is almost always enough to cover all your data roaming needs for a full year. But if you run out of data, you can always top up your lifetime eSIM and stay connected internationally. Pay $24.97 for a lifetime eSIM with $50 in travel data credit Use your eSIM to join data networks in 120+ countries Install your lifetime eSIM on a compatible device to roam on local data networks Your lifetime eSIM never expires, and can be topped up with more data anytime Many data packages cost as little as $4.50 and last 7 days. Depending on the package you choose, the length of time varies. Good to know Length of access: lifetime For NEW customers only Instant digital redemption Once you add your $50 credit to your aloSim account you have up to 12-months to use it — after that your credit will expire When you pay for a data plan you also get a free phone number (via Hushed) for the same duration of your plan that was purchased - IE 7 day eSim plan gives you a free 7-day phone number Purchased coupon must be redeemed and used within 12 months This deal is not stackable (one offer per aloSIM account) A $4.50 data package will last 7 days The data DOES expire, and you WILL NOT have any leftover data for your next trip unless it takes place within the validity period. While the eSIM never expires, the actual data package is only valid for the length of time stated at purchase (i.e. seven days after activation, 30 days after activation, etc.) So if you buy a seven-day package and only use a tiny bit, that package is still going to expire after seven days. Access options: mobile (check compatibility) Max number of device(s): 1 Updates included Here's the deal: This aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim $50 Credit normally costs ... $50, but it can be yours for just $24.97 for a limited time, a saving of $25 (50% off).

      WordArt was cool. We now have color fonts as a substitute although Word only supports COLRv0 and COLRv1 (Fraud OS 11 only). The OpenType SVG color font format needs to be supported by Office. Adobe's apps support it
