    Breaking the Embargo

    Is it okay once we have the game to release any videos and answer any questions. Didn't know if I would violate any TOS once I get it, should be by the end of the week. Any answer from the mods would be great! Thanks!

    You are under no such embargo, as a consumer who bought the game with your own $$$.

      The "embargo" only applies to those in fields who review the game. So IGN/OS/etc cannot spill the beans. However normal people who get the game early can show/tell whatever they want.

        You have to confirm to a mod that you do indeed have the game (usually a pic of the box + disc) but once you've done that, yeah, they'll open an impressions thread and you can post whatever impressions you feel like posting. The only ones embargoed from giving info are those that signed an agreement with EA saying they wouldn't (called a Non-Disclosure Agreement or NDA).

          I'm assuming we don't have to tell the mod how we got the game....if so that hampers my efforts..

            Usually a picture of the game with a note of your user name next to it will suffice. You don't need to show a receipt.

                Just so a mod can answer for me, would my username/gamertag on a player during gameplay work??

                  You have to have a picture with your username on a piece of paper next to the game and case

                          you can always post the torrent entry on piratebay, lol.

                          being a little obvious here, don't you think?

                            that would be an assumption....just saying I've been here since 05 and im just trying to help the community out a little bit that has always helped me, didn't think that was a crime.
