"Yes, delay is extremely good thing. But... From todays EA Q4 press release "Crysis 2, Dragon Age 2, Dead Space 2 have each sold in more then 2 million units". So quality, lack of content nor any other factor (including low metacritic scores... there goes that theory out of window) seem to have much impact on sales. Thus I can't figure any reason why EA chose to give developers more time on Mass Effect 3. Now excuse me, I lost a bet and I have to go pay up (I figured that Dragon Age 2 would sell only 1,5 million units). My friend got 2 million correctly and now own pre-paid copy of Mass Effect 3 " I'm not surprised that DA2 has sold 2mil+. It's made by BIO, a sequel to a very popular game, and despite the smacking it's gotten, it's still a very good game that has a lot of good qualities. All this shows that the nitwits who claim that DA2 was the 'death' of BIo are just as dumb who claimed that , BG2, TOB,NWN, KOTOR, JE, ME1, DA1, and ME2 were also the 'death' of BIO. R00fles! MORE ON TOPIC: Eh. I'll play ME3 when it comes out. It don't really matter to me when.

"Also, who's to say that members of the 9/11 victims weren't bad people? Death doesn't just wipe out everything you did in your life, no matter what, but the dead deserve respect under any circumstances. " This is a horrible argument. The 9/11 victims were not killed because of being bad people or because they did bad things. they got kileld for being in the wrong palce at the wriong time and were simply targeted for things outside their control. Example: A mass murderer is gunned down by police after a long chase is vastly different then a mass murder being accidentally a victim in a random hit and run. It wouldn't matter if a 9/11 victim had happened to b a child molestor. They weren't killed for being a child molestor. Capiche? Totally irrelevant.

People who defend Bin Laden are very cute in their need to be special internet warriors. I guess purposefully targetting innocent civilians is a-okay. That's beautiful. But, those who hunt down scum like Bin Laden are evil trolls out to murder innocence and purity. Bin Laden is not even pro Muslim since he LOVES to mass murder muslims like he lvoes to mass murder anybody else. We shouldn't dance over a grave but to actually shed tears over his detah like NumbersU is is hilariously sad. And, yes, trying to paint the US as the 'bad guys' in this situation is pretty much what you are doing. It also spits in the eye of every Muslim that has been murdered in cold blood by AQ as well.

" Iggy just didin't cut it, but little known fact, every Canadian has the right to vote in the UK as long as they've resided there for 6 months prior to an election, same as here. I don't get why Iggy got flack for exercising his right to vote." Just because you have the right to do something doesn't make it the morally right thing to do. That preacher who burned the qua'ran had the right do it but it certaily wasn't the cool thing to do. Iggy claims to be Kanandian, and all about Kanada - so much so he ran for PM - perhaps he should concentrate on Kanadian politics and not British ones. "How is it politically savvy to not vote at all, you mentalist?" You just aren't politically savvy enough to know. I'm not an edcuater so no educating for you.

"I don't mind Ignatieff," Ignatieff is a punk. This is a guy who claims to be all about Kanada yet had fun voting in other country's election. This is a guy who is sod esperateb to be elader who would spit on the democractic voting of Kanadians. This is a guy that claimed he wanted to work with the NDP to overthrow the Conservatives but the moment it was clear he would get get less votes then the NDP he spent his time bashing the NDP. The guys is a big fat failure. What's funny is I'm not Conservative. Out of the half dozen times I'v voted (I'd on't vote all the time including this year), I've voted Conservative once. I was a big fan of Chritien. Liberals simply haven't had a worthy leader since him. In this election, they got what they deserved. Only dumb Kanadians voted Liberal or Green, only bigoted Kanadians voted for the Quebecois, only cool Kanadians voted for the NDP, only smart Kanadians voted for the Conservatives, and only polityically savvy Kanadians passed on voting this time. R00fles!

People getting butthurt not voting the way they want them too. It proves that people don't really believe in democracy. Anyways, wouldn't have minded a NDP gov't; but thankfully the liberals, greens, and parti quuebcois are all laughing stocks. R00fles! I don't agree with Harper and the Conservatives on everything but hey, that's life. "a government in contempt of Parliament" Parliament is untrustworthy. "several members accused of corruption and they GAIN votes" All parties have 'corrupt' members. Bottom line is the Cosnervatives have been in semi power the past 5 years and despite the overall economic downfall in the world, Kanada has held its own pretty solidly. It's tiem for the Conservatives to show what the are or ar enot capable of with a majority. They've earned that. The Liberals earned being laughed at by having someone as stupid and pathetic as Iggy as their leader.

"5/10, just like you gave DA2." R00flerz!

It does me proud.

Wow. When I played BG1 way back around '99, I loved the game. A D&D game on computer that got me hooked. I rated it in the neighbourhood of 90%. despite some issues with it, In found it awesome. Just recently I picked it up on GOG for ****s and giggles to try out 'online purchasing'. I have no issues with GOG service thus far - oyutide of the fact it's deisgned to ruin all good memories. I'm in the middle of doing the Nashkel Mines, and quite frankly, replaying BG 10+ years after it's release was a horri bad area. I cna't stomach it for more than 30 minutes at a time. It just doesn't stand the test of time. I think I'd have to rate it around 75-80% now, and that's being nostalgia generous. Tsk, tsk.

DA2 is underrated. It's equal to DA1. AP, on the other hand, is just crap, nd is easily Obsidian's worst non expansion game. NWN2 and KOTOR2 are - despite any flaws - are at least playable and fun.

"So I just noticed this game got like 82% from reviewers on Metacritic and 43% from users (over 2000 users reviewed it). What the ****? I've never ever seen such a huge disparity on metacritic. Is it really that bad? And if so, how did Bioware **** up so badly? Can we find some way to blame this on EA? " You base your opinion on what others think? If I did that, I'd loathe a game like ARC. Thankfully, I can make up my own mind. P.S. AP sucks the big one. It is way overrated.

"I'm wondering how they pulled it off, or if there'll be retaliation." L0L Retaliation? They dont' need an excuse since they've been 'retaliating' against the US for decades. Anyways, celebrating death even for scum like Bin laden is kind ofd roll. He deserved it definitely but shouldn't be a 'fun' moment.

"Will there be a DA3, d'you think? Or will they go back to making RPGs?" Whether one likes DA2 or hates it, DA2 is still a RPG. Quality or lack thereof has nothing to do with a game's genre. This is why I can loathe games like the ES series and still consider them (crappy) RPGs.

"The onus is also on the developer to make the game accessible at any point that somebody should decide that they need a break" No. But, it's nice to see someone admit they prefer things dumbed down just to be appeased.

A game shouldn't be written like it's a tv show with commericals and weekly episodes. That's silly talk. They should justw rite the story so it flows naturally. If someone needs to take a break but 'can't help themselves and keep playing' that's a good thiong as far as the writing goes and the onus is on the player to stop when they need to for whatever reason.

VAN over NSH in 5 SJ over DET in 6 WSH over TB in 5 PHI over BOS in 6

I had someone take them when they moved and since I wasn't playing them at the time I never actually noticed them missing til years later and I just didn't care en ough to blow the whistle on them. Heh.

Scream is the best horror series ever. Scream 3 also happens to be the last movie I watched in theatres and the only one I watched more than once. Scream 4 almost got me to go back but I rfuse to do threatre again. Can't wait til it is released on DVD. Too bad that while it's gonna make money it's not a blazing hit like the earlier ones depsite reviews being reasonably positive espciially considering it's 4th in the series.

Trying out my first downloadable game **** from GOG as I purchased BG1 and BG2 so am gonna try some old skool RPGing for $9.99. Too bad I cna't find any BGs in actual stores. It better go well.

"while according to Kreia it never happened." Yeah, because god bless her ancient soul, Kreia is a symbol of truthyness. L0L

If you want to kill me keep postiung that vid as I'm gonna die from laughter.

"It's not BioWare's call to make/not make a KotOR III, that is Lucas Arts." Let's be honest, though, if BIO wanted to do KOTOR3, LA would let them. Heck, if BIO wanted to, they would have been the ones making KOTOR2. And, it was largely Obsidian's connection to BIo that got them KOTOR2 as well. BIO want to make their own space opera rpg. Afterall, LA didn't mind throwing tons of money at BIO to make KOTOR MMO, afterall. not to mention allowing BIO employees write SW novels.

Nonsense. BGDA (or DA if you are trying to be sneaky)honours BG and any true 'fan' of BG would love it. Are YOU a 'true' 'fan' of BG?

"Ok, #1 reason why the US is better than Russia, I can pick up my phone right now, grab a credit card and buy a Russian wife. Nobody in Russia can call up and buy an American wife. So there" Game over. "Russians just dont want American wifes." More like Amerikan women don't feelt he need tos ell themselves to other country's men to escape hell. Russian women sell themselves as they are deseprate exit the 'Mother Land'. Of coruse, I doubt the phenomen is as bad as it used to be.

Good.
