I'm not worried about getting my copy as soon as it is released. I'm yet to play ME2.
I suppose I'll be getting the DLC no matter where I order from? Game4U is giving a keychain alongwith the preorder. But they mention that the DLC is in limited quantities and first come first basis. I'm getting the PC version btw.
Only the pre-ordered units are supposed to come with the DLC code - I dont know how that will be done here in India. Maybe all units will have the same coz there is no mention of such restrictions on Flipkart where I've ordered it from

Haha, I remember playing the original ME, completed a couple missions and the 'galaxy bug' came into the picture, never got around it, since then I have bought the games off steam, dloaded ME overnight, will try and complete the 2 games, before I can start this one!....
-Around 40 hours playtime in total- side missions are vital to amass enough opposition to the Reaper threat
-90 minutes of cutscenes
-No loose ends or cliffhangers, the game is truly an appropriate end to the trilogy with a very intense and touching finale
-More than 100 scenes, conversations and/or events change depending on our choices after importing a save-game from ME2- from something small like someone thanking us for completing a mission to bigger repercussions which would be to spoilerous to write down- you are definitely going to feel the consequences, and not always like them
In order to rally allies, we search for a cure for the Genophage, build a Prothean weapon, disarm a Cerberus bomb before it destroys half of a moon, and are even inserted virtually in a computer program
-If and how many of these quests we complete influences how the game ends, and who- individually and globally- survives
-While the game can be enjoyable for newcomers as well, because the game is strong on its own mechanically and story-wise, it is recommended to play the first two entries to make more sense out of the wealth of information that the game builds on
-There’s an interesting sequence after the end credits
-The „Role-Play“ mode of the game (In contrast to „Action“ and „Story“) feels very much like ME1
-The game gives you more opportunity to customize your Shepard. Each class has 8 talents with 6 levels each, and up from Level 4 there are two branches to choose from to level up each individual talent differently. Weapon customization is also a factor and noticeable, but the effects (which have both pros and cons) are only marginal
-Balancing isn’t optimal
-The game is noticeably more difficult up from „Medium“, which makes using the correct weapon mods and talents integral to survive. Shepard also shoots more accurately in cover.
-The AI, on the other hand, is still not very advanced
-
: You are going to visit Krogan ruins, a Geth ship and the Turian moon Palaven, among others
-There are multiple turret sections which aren’t very well directed
-Despite the shortcomings in level design, which are similar to ME2, the game is constantly thrilling, spectacular and dramatic- largely thanks to the well-presented story and dialogue- and there are lot of small and large choices again to ponder on
-Scanning isn’t nearly as repetitive as before, because it works a lot quicker now and incorporates a new mini-game where you have to navigate your ship away from Reaper threat
-The new melee option is fun, but a little overpowered
-Graphically, the low polycount, lack of detail and low texture resolution disappoints- the characters are well animated and modeled however, and the overall look, despite its age, is quite moody
-Great dynamic soundtrack and sound-effects
-Our progress in the war effort is constantly trackable on a terminal on the Normandy
In summary, the game builds on the strenghts of ME2 and takes some notes from ME1 to create the most compelling experience in the franchise yet.
I am amazed no one mentioned the day one dlc that is most certainly a mandatory purchase (prothean squad member) which is already creating an uproar elsewhere. Though I won't be getting the game for a long time (yet to complete 1 & 2), I cannot fathom why anyone would let EA get away with such money grabbing techniques. I'd probably get it later in the year when the dlc will b free or the game goes on sale.
Iam gonna cancel the preorder i mean screw this it may have the best stories but still Day one DLC now Flippin way it will cost another 400rs? screw this

the EA/Origin standard edition purchase has one extra weapon as compared to the other e-retailers, namely the
AT-12 Raider Shotgun which is Origin exlusive, and you will get the DLC content for sure with it, whereas if you purchase it from other e-retailers, then there is a chance that you may not win the free DLC. hope this helps, have yet to other my copy so was just checking why the difference too..
Don't have the cash but.
Might buy it after release though.
