Default Mass Effect = PS3 Slayer

Did anyone watch the Mass Effect vid? All ingame footage, and its all absolutely amazing! This is what a 360 is capable of? What the hell do we need a ps3 for when a 360 can do this? I am super stoked for whatever may come now after seeing this video, and you all should be too. If you havent seen it yet, go to the marketplace and download it right now, preferably the 720p version if you can. Careful you dont sit to close to the tv though, because this video is so potent it can impregnate you... tencacious d style (see somewhere in the desert for demonstration)

I hear ya man. This game is going to be amazing. Some of the multi screens are just jaw dropping. I know people who bought 360's waiting for this game alone. There's a web site dedicated for this game...I'll try to find it again and post a link. I've known about it for a while, and have been quite surprised there hasn't been a lot more chatter going on about it in this forum.

Ive known about it for a while, but never seen it in action. It seems people are so wrapped up in gears/halo that they dont even know what else is coming like Huxley, Bioshock, Shadowrun, and Mass Effect. These four games alone look to be as good as gears or halo. Seriously, check out Huxley if you can as well as this Mass Effect video. crazy. just crazy.

this game it looks like that you can put 100 hrs easy in the demo he clicked on a universe and it zoomed in to show 4 or 5 different planets and it looked like there was hundreds of different universes.and iam glad your character can talk that was kind of weird in KOTOR

Well, I am a big fan of Bioware and all the games have done and this is looking like being another great one from them. They make great RPGs with engrosing stories, good characters and a bit of humour thrown in. They LISTEN to their fans and try to incorperate their ideas and suggestions into their games. A good company all round realy.
I was a little concerned when I read somewhere that it was only going to be about 20 hours long as personaly, I would have liked another 10 hours or so. Having said that though that may just be the main quest without side quests and also, who plays a Bioware game through only once? Plus it is the first game in a trilogy too so you know theres going to be two sequels after it...

Absolutley can't wait.....

didnt you see how many planets you can go to. its going be longer than 20 hrs.And i totaly agree about how many times you can play after you beat it once.I played KOTOR 12 times and every time i found a different way to beat it

I really really really like the way the characters interact. How the camera moves when people talk and how you can choose what you say. Also the faces in this game are done really well, way better imo than Elder scrolls 4. Is this game an MMO. Does anyone know if Huxley has a monthly fee?

I’ve been waiting for media like this from Bioware for a while. Looks good..looks DAMN good. Just the way the characters interact and have real personality make u feel like...(well u hear this a lot but this is the real thing). It makes u feel like u are really playing a movie more then anything. I love the progress I’ve seen so far in this game. i just hope its over 20hrs of game play. if it isn’t it would be a shame if u ask me.. 20hrs is just not enough for a next gen. RPG.. Over all, the game looks gorgeous but I still see some problem with the shadows and little things here and there. I’m pretty sure the little things will be ironed out buy launch day.. for those who said the 360 is a xbox 1.5?.. go choke on a fatty.. I cant wait to see how games are going to look and (play) in 07.

i agree i wasnt really excited about this game until i say this demo, the game looks incredible cant wait for it to be released cause i will be getting it the day its released

you all might be aware of this but will say it anywayz

Mass Effect Community

if u register at that site there is a member of bioware that answers forum posts, he wont give much away but on the site he says they are currently thinking of ways to involve guilds, sorta similar to elder scrolls 4

edit: sorry there are 3 members of bioware answering questions

download the video on marketplace to get the best impression of this game. if you have an HDTV, make sure you get the 720p version to really get of a feel of how the game will look.

Well I would be one of those people who does not know much about the games coming out. I have a budget of 1 game per 3-4 months, so I try to keep focused on a few games. On the other hand, if these games are "all that" and a bag of chips, then Msoft should be making it more prevelant. Sure, XBLA downloads are great, but only 60% of 360 users have registered for it. Msoft needs to make more noise.

I'll download the trailer this evening when I get home.

Sweett!!!!!! I thought I wouldn't have anything to do when I finish Oblivion. This game looks amazing! This is the most exciting thing I've seen since the MGS4 trailer.
