Hey all.

I've always played the trilogy on the xbox so I'm completely new to this computer gaming gig. I got the PC box set of all three games a couple months back as a gift, though my current computer could in no way run it. I'm getting a new computer within the next couple days that will be able to run the games however, and I had a couple of questions that hopefully some PC players could help me with.

• 1. Do I need a gaming mouse? Is gameplay merely 'enhanced' (if you will) with a gaming mouse or will a standard one work fine?
• 2. Where do I get DLC? As far as I am aware the DLC for ME1 is already included-- please correct me if I'm wrong. However I have zero idea where to get anything else. Origin, Steam, Bioware points(?) what's up with all that?
• 3. The computer will have Windows 8 pre-installed. I vaguely recall hearing that some users had problems getting the games to launch with Windows 8. Does anyone have any insight into this? And if I do encounter a problem where should I look for help?

I think that's all I've got for now, thanks for your time everyone. :)
