Crap, I forgot that my friends & I am boycotting EA's Origin distribution system. So if this game is Origin only then I'll pass just like Battlefield 3 & others...
Comment Thanks Bioware (Score 1) 78
Awhile back I decided to boycott Dragon Age Origins 2 & Mass Effect 2 + any future release of the titles because of Bioware's decision to not put co-op play into what would be an obvious benefit for both. Now my friends & I can buy ME3 & enjoy the game together (just like NWN series). Thank you.

Any reason why AMD could not design an open & free specification with as much industry participation as possible? That would seem like a good move.

Ask for trial by jury. The jury is there to protect people from unjust laws. It's Massachusetts though so she may not be able to get a qualified jury.

Blockbuster has ONLY a pay on demand ($1.99 / movie). Blockbuster doesn't have a flat rate subscription for streaming.
I have the streaming plus 2 DVD options. I'm going to drop the DVD option, go with streaming only (until I exhaust their anime section), and just pick up $1 videos a few times per month at Red/Blue boxes.
