say wha? The Prothean is included in the Collectors edition...isn't it? Or was he a preorder bonus? I'm confused. I bought the Collectors edition, and I got the Prothean...but can't remember if that came in the Collectors or came as a preorder bonus.

...man...the game industry sure is getting all screwy.

Nope, that is what came in the Collector edition. The preorder bonus was (for me at least) the N7 weapon pack and defender armor from EB.

I defiantly think that I'll just power through this playthrough and wrap it. Then go back to the ME2 character I meant to finish before 3 came out.

I'd look at your inserts again. I think some of those inserts had multiple codes on them. I am playing ME on Xbox and it was on an insert inside the case. If I can recall, there were codes for The Ashes DLC (Prothean), Online Pass and some various avatar unlocks. You had to enter each seperately.

Maybe because you're xbox? I just remember seeing the online pass, a plethora for casual wear and the N7 weapons. And then the Argus rifle because of pre order.


edit: obviously I got the patch and comic and art book too.

I just did a quick search and it looks like all collectors edition platforms have the DLC included. If you have the physical copy (which it sounds like you do) then it should be on an insert that says "Coming Soon."

Sweet, I'll look when I get home.


I now wish I paid closer attention when bought the damn thing.

Minor spoilers.

Figures Kaiden was from Vancouver...

I forgot Kaiden even existed. I think everyone I know picked to save Ashley.

Wow, what a backhanded and 'sincere' apology. Twice referencing the critic scores was a nice touch too.

For those of you playing at home, I did in fact have a second code. I just missed it in my un-boxing due to my hype and excitement. Yeaaaaah, we'll go with that. At least I still have a few mere hours of main story left to play.

Glad you found it. Javik is the only new character that I actually like. I'd honestly rather have Kaiden then some of the other characters they added. I am hoping they add some DLC that brings a Krogan to the team. I always enjoy watching them charge into a group of enemies.

a lone fan has created a better ending script in a single blog post than the entire writing staff at Bioware (spoilers should be obvious)

http://arkis.deviantart.com/art/Mass...LERS-289902125

i would have been perfectly happy if the ending had played out exactly like he described (with a bit better dialogue)

That would have been an awesome ending. I think the endings they gave us were pretty lazy.
