I would wear the Cerberus helmet as it had a large window to still see the face. It was kinda dark, but you could still make out your Shepard talking and giving jerk looks at people. But other than that, no. If you couldn't see the face and expressions, it's no good.

I really hope there's more DLC on the way. Lair of the Shadow Broker broke the mold on what DLC should be. Also, I doubt they'll include ALL the DLC on the PS3 disc. Probably just the first few like Kasumi and Zaeed. Whatever they gave free as downloads on xbox will for sure just be thrown onto the disc for PS3, but it's still a business and they'll be able to make plenty of cash from PS3 DLC.

It's not a simple question that's for sure. Especially when you ask it to a fan. It's even worse when you're talking to a collector. The countless number of bits of merchandise that are thrown in our faces are vast in their variety. Posters, statues, action figures, t-shirts, framed artwork, the list goes on. It can range from the inexpensive to the exorbitant. So how far is too far? 
 
Is a shelf of merchandise too much? What about a room? Is it too far if you have a large number of objects? Or does that become acceptable if you didn't have to pay a lot to get to that stage? If you only have one or two items, but you paid an arm and a leg for them, is that too much? Or maybe this isn't about the fan, but the people and companies providing it all. Does the root of the problem lay with those who make the goods? Maybe they should know better when making a set of themed night vision goggles. Maybe it's too far when you get to the jumbo jet painted with Pokemon. 
 
This all came to mind when earlier in the week, Bioware announced the release of yet more Mass Effect 2 Lithographs on their online store. Not only that, but these limited edition pieces, signed and numbered by the artist, increased in price from the previously normal $30 each, to $40. Sure $10 isn't much, but when both you and the company  know that they'll sell out within minutes of being online for purchase, is it just a money grab? But then maybe they're entitled to that for making something that has such a demand. 
 
As a collector myself, it's definitely a question I keep asking myself. At what point to I call it quits? Do I ever call it quits? Will I ever reach that point when I'm satisfied? Why do I even have such a compulsion to begin with? How far is too far?

Count me in

Is this this being done? How long does it take?

Sounds like an interesting way to let you try out the game before you put down the coin.

I'd have to agree with most of the points raised here but if bringing back the open world exploration of ME1 takes away from the detail of the side missions we saw in ME2, I think I'd rather have the side missions of ME2. It's definitely a tough call though.

Probably GoldenEye (N64), but there's a chance that Mario Kart 64 beats it out. Hard to say for sure.

Just realized that there were 3 Daily Cerberus News updates that mentioned a certain Spectre named Tela Vasir. Surprise surprise, she showed up in the latest DLC Lair of the Shadow Broker. Pretty cool if you ask me. Definitely could be hints or Easter eggs for future content or games in the Cerberus Daily News feed.
