Seeing how almost everyone who is obsessed with the game will have it next weekend, I thought it would be a great time for a public service announcement.

Make sure to do the following in any order

- shower
- get groceries (not just your Cafinated Beverage of choice, but this is important)
- get a hair cut
- clean the house
- empty the trash
- buy at least 1 carton of cigs (if you smoke....)
- feed all pets excessive amounts of food
- call your relatives
- take vacation (I know I did :lol:)

I hope that most peope will take care of these thing before the release date, as most of us will forgo most of this next week/weekend!!

HAPPY GAMING!!!!

1)Defrag the hard drive so game plays and loads faster!

2) Turn off/unplug all phones.

3) Lay down a BIG stock of munchies, preferable greasy salty sweet kind.

I have a case of MRE's.
If I get hungry all I have to is reach over and eat one, plus I will never have to get up and use the bathroom.

LOL seriously... I know games can be stressful on relationships, but damn man. That's just asking for it!!

Going to give my wife and kid a kiss and tell them I'm going on a business trip on tuesday and that I'm locking the door to my office. Then I'm going to lock my self in there with a bucket, 6 gallons of iced tea, 2 Jars of Pickles, 8 bags of jerky of various meats, and some cheese.

Thanks for the reminder. I know I would have forgotten some of those things. I need to add 20 minute naps once every 8 hours to mine though.

So I made this as a joke obviously... to go along with the fun nature of it. What is the ONE thing you ensure to do before the game releases?



Me... shower.... can't be all stinky and enjoy the game!

Seriously, I have no plans. I can't very well ditch my family (like I posted earlier) They'd just complain. I'll wing it like I do most things. My plans at the moment are just GETTING the game. We'll see from there.

In the same vein, what have you done to mitigate the wife/gf/husband/bf's anger regarding the amount of time you aren't spending with them?



I volunteered to be the DD for her friend's bachelorette party.....

Ear plugs. A must with an Irish wife. Also, thick clothing. That helps when the punching starts. ;)

Ohm, hehe. I just took a day off to enjoy the DA:O. But yeah, problem is that game comes out the same day my wife's birthday is and she is off too. Soooo... I wish game came out like 12:01 AM on the 3rd. I think I'll just have to enjoy the game on a regular basis like a casual husband. I am preparing though. Upgrading to Windows 7 and getting separate Nvidia GPU card to run PhysX along with my Radeon HD 5870. Also by the time I can play I'll have 3.6Ghz CPU replacing my 2.4 one. So yeah, I am all there. Can't ignore my other significant half though like some of you are about to :P.

Wow way to take an anti-man grenade for DO:A.   I am only dating at the moment. So my reasoning is simple. "Oh, I'm sorry work has been crazy lately and I needed to get some rest. I should have called you back."  Little does she know that I have actually taken 2 days of vacation to remove myself from the real-world.

Actually Im setting my computer up in our living room so my family can watch me play for the first day. Both brothers play games(youngest is 16, Im 21), and since Im still at home(live on a farm) my parents can watch too. My dad will play FPS games and my mom plays solitaire LOL, but they both love fantasy books/movies so Im sure theyll get a kick out of watching Dragon Age. Also, 42" HDTV > 17" monitor.



So, showering is a must.

I'm just grateful this is currently midterms week so I'll be done with exams when I get my hot little hands on the game. My homework is done, research proposals are written up... Dang it, need more to distract myself with! I don't suppose it would work if I got all of next week's sleep taken care of over the weekend? ;)

Oh my God, it's my computer !!! But I added a SSD drive for loading times... But my woman is home with our newborn... I guess, I'll have to wait for the night to come.
On a sidenote, we went overkill with the hardware for DaO (except for the CPU), this game won't be demanding a HD 5870.( for mass effect 2 maaaayybbbee)

Buy at least a quarter of weed and a 12 pack.

Start acting sick at work on Monday so the tuesday/wednesday sick days are believable.
