I may be making a mountain out of a molehill, but I need to ask you one question. Did you order the N7 Collector's Edition of Mass Effect 3? If you did, congrats. If you didn't, beware. According to recent reports, the Collector's Edition will now be receiving secret DLC in the form of a new squad team member. A Prothean team member. Oh, by the way, have you read up on what the Collector's Edition comes with? Here's a list straight from EA:

-70-page Digital Art book
-Limited Edition Digital Mass Effect Comic by Dark Horse Comics
-Exclusive 4x6 Lithographic print.
-N7 - Arsenal Pack
-Mechdog Companion
-N7 Hoodie

Pardon my blind eyes, but I don't see additional DLC listed there. Me personally, I bought the regular addition because I didn't see the need for any of those things, even though the Mechdog sounds cool. When Mass Effect 2 came out, an additional team member was included for free in every new copy of the game. This team member was Zaeed, a mercenary. He came with a new mission, and his own lines of dialogue in certain places of the game. If the reports are true, I see this as a huge betrayal. I will not be ordering the Collector's Edition for an extra twenty bucks.

What do you think? Are you also hoping that the Prothean team member will be included in the regular copies?
