Mass Effect 2

How can you tell if you are Cerberus Enabled:

When you start Mass Effect 2, there are two computers on the main menu.
The computer on the right hand side of the screen should be open. If it
is not then check to see that you've entered your Cerberus Code in the
account creation screens located in game.

PC Collector's Edition Issues :
We're aware that some PC
Collectors' Edition Cerberus Codes are not working. If you have the
number 1688108 on the bottom right of your Cerberus Network card and
have not associated it to your EA Online account at 4:00 PM PST your
codes will be fully functional. If you already have associated it to
your EA Online account at 6:00 PM PST you can restart the game and your
Cerberus Account will be available automatically!

Zaeed :
Some of you may be looking for Zaeed as a way to check your Cerberus
Account. Zaeed is being propagated to Xbox Live as we speak and will be
available mid day tomorrow (MST).

Timeouts:
Some users are reporting timeouts or connection drops to Cerberus
Network. We are actively pursuing a fix to this and will update
everyone once it is fixed on the server-side.
General Cerberus Issues:
If you've entered your Cerberus Activation Code through the web
interface and have played other EA Games with EA Online accounts but
are not seeing the Cerberus Mission Computer open on the main menu.
You'll need to contact EA's Customer service line to ensure that the
Gamer Tag in Xbox Live is associated with your EA Online account you've
used to activate Cerberus.

Apparently there is a bug with the special armours too (like the dragon age blood armour) where you can't hide the helmet so shepard is bumbling around trying to drink through the helmet and kiss people with it on etc [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] not a game breaker but little things like that can be a bit weird in cinematic games like ME2
