I'm already getting the Collector's Edition (hopefully one or two will be there when I my dad goes to the store Tuesday of Next week) so no worries for me.
But yeah, EA needs to stop making idiot decisions.
Like that abomination...Tiberian...Gah, it's such an abomination, I won't name it.

TB has already explained regarding the demos graphics.
There is a maximum size limit a demo is allowed to be (About 1.5 Gig I think) Therefor some of the graphical quality was sacraficed in order for the demo to give a better representation of the gameplay.

Well there were times 10 years ago or so when when you buy a game you can play it more then 20 hours. You could play it half a year and still be interesting.
Nowadays only few games deserve to give money for them. I do not agree. It is not gamers fault it is generation fault- the new generation of gamers are different so the product is made for them.
20-30 year old gamers remember other games and other way of gaming, we still do SC1 4v4 or Q2/3 HL 1 BF 1942 melees from time to time.
Now how it works in the real world:
Gaming corporations like all other corporations have marketing analysts that analyses the market and define the price of the product.
The price of any product is not the actual price to produce it combined with the margin.
It is the actual price to produce it combined with the margin combined with the willingness to pay for the product- this willingness actually forms a big part of the margin and play a vital role in the product life cycle assuring the company survivability in long term.

1. Because I actually like the Mass Effect series and am willing to show Bioware that by actually paying them for thier hard work.
2. Because Mass Effect 3 DOES have multiplayer and it actually effects the singleplayer campaign.

I have never bought a game in my life, save for a few sets of Lego when I was way younger.

I dislike the idea of DLC in general, especially on Mass Effect... mainly because I don't have xbox live to download it and my PC is not cool enough to run it, so I will get the standard stock console version and miss out on the stuff.
I played through ME2 once using a new character and I have been procrastinating playing through it with my ME1 character because I wanted them to release all that DLC onto a disk you can buy in stores so I could play it, but it is obvious that this is never going to happen.
Weird cause they put the ME1 DLC on a disk and sold it in stores or put it with a different anniversary addition or something.

I don't mind DLC if its done properly.
I mean I recently got the Vally of Death pack for Operation Flashpoint: Red River.
It cost me £5 and I got 8 new Fire Team Engagement missions. Which are basically 4 20 min missions, 2 30 min missions and 2 1 hour 30 min missions.
I am happy to recomend it. Because adding what is essentially 8 new missions in a campaign that is completely unrelated to the games story is similar to what you did get from a cheap expansion pack.
It is stuff like the ME3 DLC described. Which is basicaly cutting a section of the game out and saying "we'll only give you it if you pay more money". Like TB said, the game isen't really "content complete" on purchase. Which is stupid.
