Yeah, the standard edition looks like something you'd find on a bad Saturday morning cartoon DVD.

Why is the chick smiling? That has to be the worst part about it.

Yeah that's been said by the developers. I think that's why he/she isn't playable in this one so they won't be able to die.

I think the controlled narration from story 1 to story 2 requires it. I'm sure there's another version of that same scene with a different victim.

So are there any preorder deals for this game?

A few places have armor and/or weapons that you get when you pre-order.

Not sure if it'll be good at B&M, but TRU is saying you can save $20 off any game $59.99 or greater with purchase: http://www.toysrus.com/promo/index.jsp?promoId=3994909

A couple of regularly $59.99 games are on sale for $39.99 and appear to be valid:
360 Brutal Legend: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index...ductId=3739333
PS3 Brutal Legend: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index...ductId=3783223
PS3 Valkyria Chronicles: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index...ductId=3632085

So you might be able to get one of those for $19.99 w/ purchase :shrug:

Re: Mass Effect 2 - 360 and PC
 
I think Brutal Legend is that price normally now, and VC has been $20 before.
