I pre-ordered the ME3 Digital Deluxe Edition on Origin the other day ... it's preloaded and ready to go. I may be taking a break from BF3 for a while me thinks ;)

    I'm playing on 360 ('cause the Kinect voice commands are amazing), but can't midnight launch because the only way I could get a Collector's Edition was Amazon. Already warned my office that if UPS shows up by 10 like they normally do, I may be bailing on work. :cheesygrin:

    It's on my desk at work... TAUNTING ME... and I can't skip out of here until at least lunchtime. I'm ready at home though. Finally re-ran Audyssey on my rig since I got my Adcom amp, and got everything dialed in nicely over the weekend. ME3 + 100" screen + 9.2 surround = SKEET SKEET SKEET!!!! :cheesygrin:

    I just realized that there is a bug in ME3 on the PC that isn't allowing me to import my Shepard's face from ME1 / ME2!!! Looks like BioWare is working on a solution ...but I refuse to play this game until it's fixed. It just wouldn't be the same w/o my custom Shepard. I guess I'm waiting....

    I walked into Game Stop tonight and bought it for my son. They put all the goodies on it and he is happy as hell. Unfortunately for him, his bedtime is 9 o'clock, so he didn't get a chance to play it too long. Oh, well that will all change tomorrow after school lol.

    Played a few hours of the single player... then played the hell out of the multiplayer. Totally diggin' it. Surprised at how much I like the multiplayer, actually.

    If you want the best ending in the single player, the multiplayer will help. It increases your Galactic Readiness percentage so when you get to the endgame of the single player, you have a better chance. Interesting way to handle it, but I can imagine some people being pissed about it.

    Ahh so that's what the readiness means. I have yet to play it - just been too busy this week. Hopefully I'll get a chance tonight or tomorrow.

    "Tell me another story, Grandpa, about the Shepherd !" :biggrin:

    Mass Effect 3 is .... Bioware booted this one right out of the stadium !

    Love the story-line, too. Worth paying attention to.

    Believe it or not, I haven't played past the first mission after the Citadel yet (the From Ashes DLC). Every time I turn my system on, I get sucked into multiplayer co-op in either ME3 or Syndicate. Gonna turn my 360 on invisible today and power through some of the single player. :cheesygrin:

    I'm still waiting to see if there'll be a fix for the face import glitch. But I played a bunch of rounds of multiplayer today and found it quite fun!

    I love it so far (on the 360). I was pretty annoyed about the face-import glitch, since I've have the same Shepard since ME1, but playing around with the character creator got me pretty close. I played storyline all weekend, and so far it's living up to the hype. I haven't tried multi-player yet, but I will soon.

    Hi! I had no face import glitch here... well, my eyebrows were green, but the face itself was exactly the same.

    I like it better than ME2, story wise. However, I prefered the RPG elements in ME1. Well, so far, I like it, except the fact that you need to play multiplayer to increase your readiness rating...

    Multiplayer is pretty fun. I'm at 100% Galactic Readiness now ...just trying to decide how much longer to wait for a face import fix before I go ahead and try to recreate my Shepard.

    Plus I got some practice w/ ME combat again.
