@Punkrawk Bbob Third Age? Don't you mean Fire Emblem ripoff? ;)

(The GBA title was a SRPG, unlike its console counterpart.)

@ChaseHammerJ Not even a LEGO game?

@Buster Rod G Probably because these tie-ins tend to be 10-hour action games with a RPG sheen like Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, rather than 40-plus hour RPGs like Baldur's Gate.

Even if the publisher was willing to spring for the high-dev-cost, low-return RPG, the source material probably can't support it.

@ThePunisher138 It's buried in the options somewhere - but at least in the US, "on" is the default. (Things may be different in the EU where they have stricter data privacy laws.)

@Noctem Aeternus Because it's of course the devs' fault if the platform owner won't let them support such events.

@Softserve No, it's still an option.

@bsd107 Games for Windows Live does support automatic updates (it checks for patches on game startup); if it's not up there yet, blame the dev.

@devwild Amazon had the $10 credit up for months before the DLC was announced as being available outside the CE.

@wiicheats The game came out today.

That's how ME1 -> ME2 worked. But that can't be how ME2 -> ME3 works, because ME2 lets you do stuff after the finale. (And if it was just using a hidden save, how would pulling the file from the cloud fix it?)
