They've put up a mini-FAQ on their blog where they specify that they are not going to change the endings or provide alternates, they're just going to expand on the current ones. This is going to be a very, very hard sell because a lot of complaints around the endings stem from them having...

GameStop failed in the UK because they never established a presence here. - I have never once seen an advert for GameStop in the UK. Not online, not on TV, not on billboards. So far as I can tell they had barely any stores in the country, so unless you happened to live near one and walk past...
