This may not be what you like to hear but Stanley Woo has said in multiple threads that the best and practically only way to get message through is to vote with your wallet.
This is very true, I know I cancelled my pre-order and I've probably seen at least 10 people in this thread cancel their or say that they are no longer planning on buying it. One person even got a refund. So considering this is only a a small microcasm of the fanbase we can hope that those outside of it get the reviews and news and reconsider their purchase.
Have you seen the ratings of this thing on Amazon? That's a lion's share of sales cut right off.

It remains to be seen what is going to happen saleswise but I don't really mind about people making one liners in Joystick articles or anything because media visibility is the most important thing.
I think there might be certain kind of wisdom in the crowds. When people see product panned there are of course people who need to express their feeling against something they like (Mass Effect) but in general I think people have learned that those with the biggest mouth may not be the most information of the subject.
Those anonymous people may get curious, check Twitter, google, read this thread and save their money.
It's something really great what people are doing here.
With that -- > Bed. Keep it going folks!

Yeah it's unreal. Again, united BSN is scary. Even moreso when it channels itself in such ways.

Wowsersyeah I've been told that this thread is a major contributor to the Amazon fiasco. Which is good. Awesome. Excellenttt.
Wait...fiasco? Like more than just the bad reviews or something else?

And is it true that a product can get removed if below a certain amount of stars....

I am sorry but... no. This CAN'T happen. Palaven probably has like, thirty dreadnaughts in orbit. And EVERY turian is a soldier. They're be impossible to capture, and they'd make atrocious slaves.
This is just... so... ****ing stupid.

Yep, I mean the reviews. The only 5-star one isn't even real. It's written by someone who gets paid to 5-star everything she sees.
And I don't know about that "below a certain amount of stars" thing... It certainly wouldn't hurt in this case.

indeed why would they raid the homeworld of probably the most heavily defended, when they got more vunerable colonies out in the Terminus systems

Are there any pics of Kai Leng yet? I want to photoshop a cereal box and Captain Anderson gasping into it and also a caption saying "Gimme Dat Cereal". Would be an awesome avatar.

Very pleased with those results. My review went up 30 seconds after they unlocked at 3AM and it was top of the pile when I got up in the morning. Was worried because I couldn't direct people to it since the BSN went down for maintenence at the same moment, but people thumbed it up anyways.
Kept on it all day, sending the hordes to take down good reviews, and add bad ones. We've tanked them on Amazon.com, .ca, and .co.uk. Also the canadian retailer Chapters, and B & N in America. All in all, worked out pretty well. I had fun.

Too late
But you're certainly welcome to try. I think there's a hi-res Leng in the "25 concept arts" thread on this very board. Look it up.
