Avoiding this like the plague, after being burned by the ME2 CE. The extra rifle was the only good thing about it.

I'm still not sure. ME2 sticks in my throat.

On a sidenote, I can't believe how often and regularly this site has new stories. It's almost become an amusing injoke between my buddies and I now, every time I refresh the homepage there's a new story. Your name is popping up everywhere too, osubluejacket, you're doing some legwork and I for one appreciate it!

It's reasonable and if the add ons are good I might pick it up since the ME2 pre order add ons weren't released as DLC
I'm not as random as you think I salad

One of the big reasons I bought the collector's edition was the awful standard edition cover art. Beginning to look as of I may be doing the same thing here.

I would prefer an epic edition with a replica Normandy but if we can't get that this will have to do.

I'll have to wait and see what the in-game content is like before I think about buying this. I don't really need a lot of swag, so the extra content needs to be worth the extra $20.
