Dead age 2. I don't like this armor.

[FurousJoe]

 Ugh, the ignorance from the overreacting upset people here is making my head hurt.

Get a grasp on terms like "entitlement", "marketing" and plain logic.

After you did this maybe then come back and try again, because the **** you guys are throwing about how this is unfair, disgusting, retarded etc. well guess what, only thing retarded is you guys throwing out these words, because it's clearly nothing like that.

[CaolIla]

Hmm... EA is the Conrad Verner of the publishers "Sometimes I poke through crates for some extra credits..."

The armor looks like something an ape would draw after he had a lobotomy. Especially the helmet makes the Blood Dragon helmet look like most awesome thing that has ever been seen by mankind.

Now to the good side: I won't have to look at this Angela Merkel of armors.

I have a friend that is getting Dead Space 2 but isn't a Dragon Age fan. I offered him $5 for the code so hopefully that business proposition will go smoothly.

Hahaha. Thank God he doesn't come on the forums or else my $5 offer would sound like an insult to him and the price would have to go up.

I would not nearly be as upset as I am now if dead space was a bioware franchise. If that were the case, it would appear as if bioware is trying to get support for another one of their games. But it's not, EA who is suppose to have ZERO input on the game, is using it to advertise their other games. EA are not the ones making this game, it's Bioware, EA should not have a say in what's going where in terms of the game. They should be marketting it and that's it, they should not be using one developers game to market another.

Uh... BioWare and Visceral are EA studios. EA are the publisher of BioWare and Visceral's games and they own the studios, ergo they have total control over the games. EA can be fairly relaxed and hands-off, yes, but at the end of the day Dragon Age 2 and Dead Space 2 are both published and developed by EA. This promotion, as Merci said above, works both ways. Dragon Age 2 is advertised to Dead Space 2 players, and Dead Space 2 is advertised to DA2 players.

Do you sit in the cinema and start shouting at the screen when the trailers play? Do you shout at people who write because they're saying someone else's book is good and you should read it? Do you hate your local supermarket because they're advertising the competing brand of... I dunno, shampoo? No, you don't.

Seriously. Your high horse? You need to get off it and smell the roses. EA aren't your friends, they're not going to bend over backwards to please you. They'll do what they want with their products, and if that includes cross-promoting two of them, then so be it. It's their right to do so. If you want to sulk over it, then feel free - But don't expect sympathy, and don't expect EA to change this for you.

I can't be bothered to read your wall of text with pesudo-intellectual statements but I will pick out this one. "Do you sit in the cinema and start shouting at the screen when the trailers play?" No, because the trailers tend to be played before the movie even starts, if said trailers appeared DURING the movie, I would be pretty pissed. And that is just what's happening now. Pick your analogies better.

I'm on no high horse, I was perfectly fine with this cluster **** of DLC. until they started using one developers game to advertise another. Also enjoy just eating up whatever **** pie falls from them without question. You are the gamers of today!

no thats not whats happening now

you talk as if there are going to be dragon age commercials you have to watch in the middle of playing dead space

a little piece of paper that comes in your game case hardly = trailers during a movie-_-

Haha trust me, that code is gonna be worth at least 10 bux on ebay, if not more, my guess is 15 bux will be the running price there.

Im guessing a code from PS3 Dead Space 2 will not work on XBox 360 Dragon Age II? Because I have Dead Space on PS3 and Dragon Age on XBox 360.

EA isn't the ONLY company doing this type of promotion you know.... If you buy Killzone 3 for example you get access to the Socom 4 beta. You got cosmetic "wings" for Guild Wars when you purchased the collector's edition of Aion. There are more I could name that aren't EA games but just wanted to make a point that this shouldn't just be an "EA iz teh devilz" thread.

EA is like Saints compared to Activision, now that's some serious bull**** DLC pricing they got. 20 dollars for a mappack that is basically just added maps from an old game? lol?

See what I mean:

Bad Company 2 Vietnam ~$20
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Mappack #X ~$20

Lol?

Yep, I'm the gamer of today! Just for the record, I have no intention to buy Dead Space 2, at all. What for? I don't need this armor, it doesn't enhance my gameplay in any shape or form. But I don't feel entitled to it, either.

You keep swinging that "entitlement" word around, I don't think it means what you think it means. Where did I ever say that it should be included? Where did I say it should be free? I never said I deserve it, i never said it should be included. I think it shouldn't be here in the first place.

You guys really need to read between the lines here.

And you can just pretend its not there by not buying Dead space 2 or not putting the code in when you get from Dead Space 2. I don't see what the issue is.

In a casual sense, the term "entitlement" refers to a notion or belief that one is deserving of some particular reward or benefit.

I seriously doubt that is the case with how Bioware has been doing the DLC codes you get all of the versions with one code.

Here's a link to IGN's review of Dead Space 2 that just went up. It got a 9.0 out of 10. Those of you on the fence about whether to get it or not might want to read as it has tons of great information about the game.

I'm so confused on how this DLC will work. Does the game have to be linked to our bioware account to get the DLC or do we get a code? If we get a code will it be a cross platform code?

You get a code in the DVD case. Its just like the code for the staff we got for joining the newsletter. You go to redeem it on this site and you get the item accross all platforms.

Is this true? I need to know so I can hurry up & preorder DS2, I was on the fence for it but now I want it, its just I want to have DS2 on 1 system & DA2 on another b/c of save files from DAO

[Phoenixblight]

I am only going off of what they have been doing with the DLC since Mass Effect 2, it would seem out of place to suddenly go two steps back especially since they have been doing it for so long now.
