Mock news stories from Alliance News.

I would expect we'll see more news after the release of the game

Man, why couldn't the reapers get the annoying reporters? (Emily Wong wasn't the one trying to twist my words on me)

No you get to hit Emily Wong. What's the best part of ME3? Being able to punch Emily Wong in the face for third consecutive game.

I guess I was good-guy Shepard then because I helped Emily with her stories, but the other reporter lady I gave some lip to when she was trying to twist my words.

Chances are you won't get to punch her out again, she died when earth was invaded. And no its not a spoiler, its on the Alliance News Network Twitter feed.

She did a suicide run on a Reaper.

Unless your going to find her as a converted Husk, then punch her in the face.

Looking forward to this game, although for the life of me I can't really remember much of what I did in ME1 and ME2.

It'll be cool to see my commander Sheppard in action again, he's a dead ringer for Lando Calrissian.

Actually, the reporter you punch in the face is Khalisah al-Jilani.

Since this won't be available on Steam, what's the best alternative for digital distribution (not counting EA's PoS Origin app that I will never install on my system)?

You can try buying the game at Best Buy. I saw the PC version on sale at Deerfoot Meadows.

So far as I know, I think you are stuck with Origin if you want digital distribution. EA won't let other's have it, I think. Hell, don't you have to have Origin to even play the thing? You might be stuck if you don't want Origin (not that I don't agree).

Just like BF3, you need origin to even launch the game.
