Mass Effect

Anybody else getting hyped up about this game? I'm expecting big things from this title, and if any gaming company can pull it off it's Bioware.

It looks cool, but as far as I know it's only coming out for XBox360. If it were to come out for PC I'd get it on day one, but I have no plans on getting a 360.

Yea the novel is a great read. It does a good job of setting the games histoy up, the only bad thing is that it will make you want to play game the second you finish it. November 20th seems so close, yet far away :cry:

Well for those interested an ass-load of media has been released over the weekend and monday. Be sure to check some of it out. On a sad note there will be no voice custimization :cry:

Customizing a shepard.



This is an intro for the game. They are playing a female custom shepard.

I'm going to get it and watch all the sweet 'breast nudity' as the BBFC likes to put it.

In all seriousness, it looks hella sweet and looks like it's going to make up for the crappiness that was KOTOR 2. I know BioWare didn't make it, but that game could've been so much better than it was. Therefore they need to make up for it.

AWESOME!!

that's like cinema quality!!


but... how's the main game?

is it gonna be basically just like all the other 20 FPS games?

wait, is it even FPS?


eyecandy is sweet, and i don't think the features i saw in the preview aren't really new, it's just that many others fail to accomplish them, but how about the gameplay?

Its third person shooter. You can gun and run if you wish, but it has a deep tatical system. You can pause live combat to issue orders to your team. Note that you do NOT have to pause combat.

Guy in this link pauses every five seconds to show off the command wheel. Game play will not force you to pause half this much


Video of biotic powers. Again guy pauses to show off command wheel.

Creating a Female Shepard

This video shows how even the choices you make during character creation effect the game from the start. The psyche profile, where you grew up, and your military record you chose affect how others will view you initialy.


This video showcases the conversation system. The outcome here is just one of many ways this scene could go.

cool

but somehow, i don't really get all that excited about this game...

besides being unable to acquire it and play it at the moment, i just don't have much faith in the new video games these days :(


and that command circle looks really tedious

I agree with you on video games not living up to standards, but I have faith in bioware. They havent failed me yet, not once I have I regreted buying one of thier games. All the game sites who have got to play a demo say the wheel is easy to use, and becomes second nature quickly. The guy in the video used it WAY more than necessary
