Hello there, MEGD.
Today, I spent a few hours trying to aquire Mass Effect. The first game, not the yet-to-be-released Mass Effect 2.

Today, I was unsuccessful. It's almost like Mass Effect have been completely discontinued. All-in-all, it's not an enormous deal. I'm a long-time pirate. I have played Mass Effect already. But I make it a point to buy all of Bioware's games legitimaly. In preperation for Mass Effect 2, I decided that if I started today, I'd be done with Mass Effect before next Thursday (release date in Sweden).

Instead, the game is impossible to find. After visiting several stores, two of them Gamestop stores in the biggest malls in my entire region, ALL of them completely plastered with Mass Effect 2 posters, cut-outs and pre-order-now-or-your-firstborn-will-be-eaten-by-grues leaflets EVERYWHERE, I come to the conclusion that it simply cannot be found.

Why, I ask myself? WHY? There are several years older games, some released just last year, already sold as "classic" or cheaper versions. Why wasn't Mass Effect (1) re-marketed or re-released in anticipation of the long-awaited sequel?

This is useless.

For the record, I blame Electronic Arts. Everything has been going downhill since they took over.

Bah, I say. BAH! *shakes fist at God*

Varenus Luckmann, I left this thread open despite your admission of pirating ME1 in the past, because you weren't actually discussing piracy. You were merely upset at not being able to find the game at retail. That's fine.



Now, however, after many have suggested several different venues for your purchase of the game, you've not only dismissed them as "I loathe not having physical game boxes," but now you're being evasive, abusive, and continue to talk about pirating our game. So I'm shutting this thread down.



End of line.
