If it's just on Origin, then I'll just buy it off Amazon. If that copy requires an Origin account, I guess I won't be getting it. Really sucks too, I would like to finish that storyline.

Haha good man! Honestly the thing I'm most excited for in the CE is the robot dog lol. I had too much fun feeding my fish and messing with the hamster in ME2, so I'm gonna waste away hours playing with that damn dog.
Ohhh yes. I am a HUGE sucker for dogs in games. I never took the mabari out of my party during my first play of Dragon Age: Origins, ha ha. And don't get me started on Dogmeat. That robotic dog will be so fun. He'll be my first mate and everyone will have to call him Sir. :p

Oh and the hoodie won't be so bad! Thanks for unintentionally reminding me to preorder the game! First thing I'm doing tomorrow.

Untill they stop making hard copies of games all together, I'll be buying my games in a case thank you very much. It makes no difference to me wheter or not its on steam. And really, if a game is good, why the heck should this even matter on youre decision to buy a game.

I'm not sure I want to get ME3 anyway all things considered. I'm not sure I want another generic cover based shooter. Even if it was really good it would have to be as good as say KOTOR for me to buy it from origins. And if it's not on steam I would prefer to buy a hard copy anyway.

Maby, although resisting the urge to mototov EA for it would be difficult, I could handel it. but if I couldn't transfer my steam shepards to me3, or it made me play on origin, I would not make this purchase, and resisting the urge might become more difficult than i can handel...

getting it anyway.. doesnt matter if its on steam or not.. if its a game im looking forward to.. im getting it no matter what... how would you else try to explain Diablo 3, SC2 ? :) they arent on steam... so hoooow am i going to get it ?... Buy it online from other retailers ^^ easy as that

also i mostly dont buy new releases on STEAM... waaay to expensive, buy it on game.co.uk instead and add the cd key to steam easy and cheap ^^

Getting it on the Xbox since all my save files from 1 & 2 are on the Xbox. So this Steam/Origin foolishness is irrelevant to me. :D

if they don't have it on steam i'll be getting it either on origin or hard copy, probably origin as it's just more convenient, but who knows.


i'm not sure if i want the collectors edition of it or not yet...i'll see once that time rolls around and how my wallet is looking.

Assuming that I was buying it for the PC (which I would if I was able to somehow transfer my files from the xbox version, which I bought because it came out first), I'd just buy it from Gamestop or Best Buy.

Well even though I am a PC gamer I will not be buying ME3 on PC anyway since I have the others on the 360. Although even if I was getting it on the PC it not being on Steam wouldn't bother me. There was a time when games weren't on Steam you know? My only problem would be if it was on Origin as that kinda annoys me as I don't want another DRM thing like that on my system since steam is already well established with games and deals.

Yes. I was never planning on getting that ME3 on Steam, or any game I would play on a PC, for that matter. I have always preferred physical copies. the only way I buy on Steam is if the game is small or not from the current generation. Also, I find myself liking Origin better than Steam.

Saying "absolutely" doesn't go far enough. As much as I love Steam, it would be moronic not to play the finale of one of the greatest RPG series of all time just because I have to use Origin. It would be inconvenient, but whatever.

I preordered the physical copy of ME3, so I don't care whether or not it's on steam. However, I think that it is in the best interest of the platform for it to be on steam.
