“The 3DS is failing right now, more than any other reason, because of smartphones and tablets offering compelling gaming experiences. And when the iPhone 5 launches in the next several weeks, you can expect it to officially kill off the 3DS. … Here’s a news flash for you, Nintendo: consumers do not and will not care about the 3DS. And the iPhone 5, which will likely come with improved components to help deliver even better gameplay to owners, will make that abundantly clear.”

If you were one of the million people who recently bought Dragon Age 2, EA and Bioware have a little treat for you. They are offering you the epic that is Mass Effect 2 for free, gratis, nothing. All you have to do to get your hands on the game is head on over to http://social.bioware.com/me2offer/ and enter your online pass code. Its that simple.

If you have lost your code, Don’t worry you can still get the game by logging into the site and pressing the “I’ve lost my code” link. After you do that you will be greeted with a code to download Mass Effect 2. Please note the code you get will allow you to download the PC version of Mass Effect 2.

I’m not sure if the online passes from the console versions of the game work, but hell its worth a try if you have both a console and a gaming PC .

Here’s the link again. http://dragonage.bioware.com/me2offer/.

This past week in our sidebar poll we have been asking you all the question “If you could have any of these games right now, which would you choose?”. 200 of you voted this week, and here is the conclusion. Only 7 of you (2%) voted for Super Mario Galaxy 2 on the Wii. 11 of you (6%) voted for Socom 4 on the Playstation 3. 27 of you (14%) chose the highly anticipated Grand Turismo 5. 30 of you (15%) would love to have the next Zelda game on the Wii right now. 34 of you (17%) voted for Marvel Vs. Capcom 3, which was the favorite to win the poll in the early stages. 44 of you (22%) voted for Halo: Reach, and I am sure the Beta helped push that one up there. In the end the majority of you choose Red Dead Redemption, which had 47 votes (24%).

So the winner is Red Dead Redemption, and you will be happy to know that there is not long left to wait. There is now a new poll up on the side bar, and my colleague Eddy V came up with the question. Make sure you go ahead and vote.
