Electronic Arts-owned BioWare has said that gamers who pre-order
Mass Effect for PC will get a discount at certain US retailers.
Gamers who order the title from retailers including GameStop, Amazon.com and GoGamer.com will get $10 (£5) shaved off the price.
Electronic Arts,
Mass Effect's PC publisher, is also dishing up
Dead Space goodies for folk who order
Mass Effect through its online store. Up for grabs is the first issue of the
Dead Space comic and a poster "while supplies last".
Quite why BioWare or EA is feeling the need to pimp
Mass Effect with official discounts at retail has not been said.
SPOnG has contacted EA to find out whether we'll see a similar promotion over here, but no comment was available at the time of press.
Mass Effect is set to hit the PC on June 6th over here. You can find out more on SPOnG's
dedicated game page.
