Hi all, Never really downloaded a game from a website before, so where would the cheapest place be? I'm thinking about getting mass effect 2, and i checked direct2drive but its £44 there!

Despite what the companies / publishers said about the price benefits of digital download when the services began year ago, you're not going to find any new releases that could be considered "cheap". Quite the opposite. Only real time would be when Steam etc have their sales for particular games, you can find a bargain.

Mind you I still found better deals on ebay. But then I like to own boxes.
