I'm wondering, if I get ME3 with Origin will it allow me to import my ME2 character that I played through on Steam? I assume the importing function will simply be looking for a certain file type regardless of what client the game ran through. However, it's EA, so skepticism is healthy.

Yes you will because your save game files are whats needed and they are in the document folder not in the game folder itself. I got both on Steam myself (i do have the disk versions as well as i like to have the disks for all my games but i run the steam versions).
If you didnt know already you can run your steam versions of mass effect 1 & 2 from the origin clients. You just need to input the codes where you redeem the game codes. Though for the original mass effect my code didnt work (seems not all the ME1 game codes work as the game came out before 2009) so i had to email EA my proof of purchase from steam which was a couple of screenshots of my steam library and then EA added the original mass effect onto my Origin Library with a new code of theirs. Mass effect 2 should work though you just need to input the cdkey. I just thought as Mass effect 3 had to be on origin why not have 1 and 2 there as well.
Basically if you want you can add all EA games on there. Just if the code doesnt work it means the code it too old so you will need to provide proof of purchase to EA for them to add it for you.

Thank you very much, that was extremely helpful (and relieving) :happy:
Now if I may ask a much less valid question. I imagine PC players and console players will not be able to play multiplayer together?

I can see how it would work as to have access to the multiplayer part of the game you need to be signed up to your EA account and internet even with an xbox at the time. But im not sure if they have implemented it across all platforms. Im guessing we will find out when we can access that part of the demo but im not going to be too fussed over the multiplayer part of the game until ive played thru the main game at least 2 or 3 times

Ah well, I have a couple friends getting it for their consoles and I was hoping I could still play with them. Have you seen the Multiplayer trailer? It is something out of this world....

Game will update their site but in order to do the sort of update it will take to add the bonuses on they would need to take the site down for maintenance for about 15 mins...most companies allocate a day of the week in which their sites are allowed to go down, mostly on the day of the week when theres the least amount of customers visiting the site. I think they will make the update this week sometime, odds are they couldnt do it fri because maybe they were getting a lot of orders coming in and taking the site down would mean loss of sales at the time.
As things have been confirmed by Chris Priestly im just going to wait patiently .

i'm happy to wait i just think its wierd they didn't do it at like 2 am or something on the friday as internet traffic for a European retailer would been little to none at this time giving game plenty of time to update the site
Good to know, the ME3 site said to check with the retailer on how to redeem, but I couldn't find any mention of it on Best Buy's website.l shneier wrote...

the argus will be given to you on relase day probably through a redemtion code inside the game. as long as this best buy wasn't in austrailia you will get the argus
