I remember posting on the old bsn. At the time there was the import tool not working for Shepards created in ME 1 and everyone was getting worried about not being able to import their canon Shepard, the leak controversy had hit the forums, the ending controversy was already starting up, all in all the bsn was excited but nervous. I remember going to gamestop that night for midnight release (living 500 miles to the south of where I live now). Even with all the controversies I friggin loved that game and have done several playthroughs of it since along with the rest of the original trilogy. And here we are 5 years later. Instead of finishing a journey we are starting another one. Controversy is also in this game but the excitement is still there. Maybe a different type of excitement but I am still feeling it. Of course I don't have to go anywhere to get the game this time just have to wait for it to unlock. At the end of the day Mass Effect is back in my life. Hell yeah!!

Years ago, BioWare said to keep our ME3 saves. Looks like we don't need them after all.

Anyone else remember that night? Oh yes. I was on March break at the time with family, far away in Florida. I remember reading the meltdowns, seeing the mods go crazy, etc. I came back a few days after release, sat down, played it like crazy. And you know what? Mass Effect 3 is just as good as ME1 and ME2, in its own unique way And now, I can't play MEA's SP because of university finals around the corner, unfortunately. But the way I see it, that gives Bioware time to patch some of the bugs and animation glitches. Like you said, there was the import bug that was causing the sky to fall on old BSN. But Bioware had that fixed in a week or two, no big worries. Honestly, I think if this game were to get re-reviewed in 2-3 months, some of the complaints would be gone. Not all, obviously. But enough to make this controversy go away, somewhat. Two hours to go at this point. Good luck to all my fellow Pathfinders (BTW, nice to see you KotorEffect3. I thought that was a username I recognized. Hope you enjoy MEA!)

Years ago, BioWare said to keep our ME3 saves. Looks like we don't need them after all. I kind of wonder if they had concepts for a post ME 3 game set in the Milky Way. Would have been hard to pull off with genophage and rannoch arcs since potentially three species could potentially kick the bucket (though I think the Krogan would have just gone back to business as usual). That's not even counting how they would have accounted for the endings in which the only where the reapers are actually destroyed the geth also kick the bucket. Still would have been interesting even if they just went with a canon ending disregarding the other potential endings.

I did get a MP pack for ME3 when I played the trial, I cant remember what it was called, maybe a Loyalty Pack or something. I guess I would have got it even if I uninstalled ME3 since I have my Origin history and points and etc.

Definitely. As soon as it downloaded I jumped in and didn't look back. It's one of the few times I've pulled an all nighter playing a game because I just couldn't stop.

What I mostly remember from that night was thinking "Why the hell is the reapers attacking Earth when it's the Citadel they want???" (I had been on a complete media blackout before getting the game).

Yep, I remember. More to the point, I remember missing it. I was in California on vacation and couldn't play the game for two days. Yeah, I know, poor me. Kinda funny though because I was driving into LA during Emily Wong's twitter posts about the Reaper invasion, which was rather interesting.

I remember it -- from a bit different perspective than most of you, I'd wager.
I hadn't played any ME at the time, but was into DA and hung out on the DA forums at ye olde BSN. The 2 IPs have a lot of fans in common, and of course ME discussion would spill into the DA forums and vice-versa.
This is the first time I'll ever be playing a game right at release - I usually wait until games have been out for awhile and are all patched up.
