Yeah, Kaiden is also a grade A knob-jockey but I still dislike Ashley more. Hopefully we'll get the chance to put the survivor in the Airlock and have a Senior Moment.

Agreed, but it would be even better to throw Jack out the airlock.

Okay, I'll bite. Why do you hate Jack?

Sorry for the (slightly) off topic, but I don't want to start a new thread for this. What happened is that this Origin thing really surprised me today. Background: I have Dead Space 2 installed on my PC (the GamersGate version). So just today I start up Origin to play some ME3 demo, and what do I see? Dead Space 2 on my game list. Same "cd-key" as the GG one. Seriously what the actual fuck? Who the hell gave this program permission to do that? I'm not really pissed off though, because I wanted to add it to my acc sooner or later, but this is still ridiculous. I guess it happened because within DS2 I logged in with my EA account so it kinda knew already that I have DS2, but still - better be careful with this thing. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.
EDIT: ...or is this old news? I was honestly surprised that it adds EA games to your Origin acc, though since it's the same as the EA acc ... hell I'm confused. Still, scared the hell out of me. :)

Yeah, it's a recent thing. Any EA game where you've registered the CD key to your EA account in-game now shows up in your Origin library. Just happened to me with Spore, which I didn't even remember I'd purchased four years ago.
It's not terribly worrying AFAIC because, hell, these games were already linked to the same EA account, and now it's consolidated under your Origin shelf. I find it's actually more convenient than having to dig around for your copy to register it.

Is this recent as "Like, this morning"? Because I'm not seeing Dragon Age 1/2 or ME2 in my Origin list.

Recent as in yesterday, which was when I noticed it. As long as you've got all those games registered under the same Origin/EA account, they ought to show up. Perhaps accounts are being gradually updated in a segment-wise or phased manner; or maybe your account was plain ignored. As ze French say, je ne sais pas.

I really like how they've made it where the less firepower you go into combat with (and therefore the less weight on your back), the faster your powers recharge as a result. I hadn't really enjoyed playing the Engineer or Adept classes until now. And the Vanguard, with just the shotgun equipped and spec'd for recharge reduction in all his powers, can pretty much live forever just bouncing around the battlefield crashing into people.
This will definitely be purchased at release. Can't wait.

Yeah, I'm quite fond of that myself. It does need some balancing though - as it stands, the carnifex is obscene, and makes carrying a sniper rifle nearly pointless.

Mine weren't there, but Origin happily accepted my serials for them.
