While arguments against digital distribution could certainly be made, I think it's a little silly to say that the physical media is better. 

Here us the problem with digital distribution social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/130/index/1724187/1

Personally I like the way a physical case looks on my shelf.   Also I would  rather risk me losing a game, then having the company stop supporting a Digital Download of the game.  It's ust the whole "personal responsibility" thing.

That said, When I receive my Jade Empire pack, I will be happy with whatever shows up because it is going to be free. 

So I won't complain........ much



Now, those of you complaining about ship times, and calling Fedex every other day, Calm down.   Take a deep breath.  You'll get your stuff.  It hasn't been 8 weeks yet.   Also remember, this is free stuff,  and I think Bioware handeled it all great.

Wow.  I really hope the PC games I requested are the retail version.  DD is convenient and nice at times, but there's no substitute for actually having the physical media in-hand.

I couldn't agree more. I prefer physical copies of things. That's the reason I oppose digital readers

Its always nice to see pics to see how cool the prizes are. It doesnt have to be the expensive high end stuff like the comps.

I doubt anyone wants to see the prizes I got, the mass effect pack. It's mostly books and comics.

Althought my 360 (an elite) does look rather snazzy with the ME skins/faceplate. Took awhile to apply the side-skins (thick stickers really) since the default/stock packaging had them rolled up in a tube. Had to put my 360 on top of the fed-ex box and another below w/ the consoles skins in between

-edit-
Don't have an iphone so those skins will mostly be unused. A major plus is that they use the collectors edition 'N7' packaging for the back, which looks much better. Might snip off the 'Where's Shepard?' bit from the other sticker so it's just an N7 to put on my car...

I understand why the original Mass Effect had to be digital, but I really hope the rest of the games are retail.  There's just something about flipping through the little book that comes with it that you don't get from a readme file.  For me the books are easier to read and sometimes they have nice artwork incorporated into them.

I was doing some yard work today and saw a FedEx truck drive by and realized now I'm like you all with your FedEx obsessing. I'll probably start calling the customer service number next week.

I may know that, but that doesn't mean I can't be eager

Hey guys, BioWare is shipping out:
Jade Empire Pack
Dragon Age Pack
Mass Effect Pack (sent out for delivery)
Comic Pack (sent out for delivery)
Dragon Age Novels Pack
BioWare Literature Pack
Mass Effect Prequel Pack
Mass Effect Novels Pack (sent out for delivery)
Mass Effect Statue & Artbook

Those are all going to be sent using Fedex from here in Edmonton. The custom PC's and Xbox have already shipped, either from Edmonton or from LA, and some should already be delivered.

Pretty much everything else will be coming from the BioWare store which as already mentioned is located in Colorado.

If it's located in Colorado...can I just drive there and pick it up? I live in Denver, and have had the nails in the wall and frames sitting empty for a month.

I haven't been on here in a while and was afraid that my package had been lost in the mail.

[Satirewire]

Prizes are being shipped out much faster than I was expecting. It would be awesome to get my literature pack during this week or early next. I hope there's another update Monday/tomorrow on what has shipped.

[sage_viper]

Oooh man, another week of anticipation starts tomorrow
