Mass Effect

Post by CloudNineGT »

Forgive me if this has already been brought up, crushed, elevated a little more and then dismissed as crap already. I've got one of those nagging feelings about this game where I'm actually interested in a new game even though I know it will probably stomp on my dreams but still this seems enjoyable:

Alien bitches in tight suits, futuristic setting, and the closest thing you'll ever see to a speech tree on a console. Sure it looks like KOTOR 3 but what the hell, I was content to play through the first KOTOR and halfway through the second. Anyone have the motivation to save me $60 when this comes out or would you actually buy it?

The space suit of the alien looks like a mix of a Protoss and Goron Freeman.

The alien sluts are fun, though.
Probably gonna be a shit game, but one may never know...

Isn't it a console game?
If so, case closed. Don't buy it.

The only playable console games are those made for quick mate on mate action, like sports games or beat em up games.
Yeah, I just realised that mate on mate action sounded rather gay..
And yet the best sportsgame ever is still to be found on a computer; SWOS.

So stop this chit, lock this thread.

And ban Pvt. Powler and Devil Star 666 to make the whole thing more fun.

Sports games suck.

And most console shooters suck too.

Finding the 'gold' on Codex is conceptually similar to fishing pyrite dust from one's stool.

So they say, so to write. :drunk:

But it's a Bioware game? At least there's riddles. :chick:

I'll probably buy it because supposedly it will have a lot of choices that affects the game more so than they have said in the past. I know it probably won't but it's the only RPG i would be willing to buy for a console, it's either this or final fantasy Shin Tasemi Monster Farm 6. I'll be sure to give you guys the thumbs up or thumbs down.

Just to elaborate a little this game boasts:

>Kewl Grafix

>Speech trees and decision making done all during the course of a realtime conversation too keep it looking cinematic while still offering six different responses that can be made by the player simplified into tags like "Helpful" "Lie" or "Aggressive"

>Three man squad based combat in first person with a live pause feature to switch between characters and give orders to the ones you are not playing.

>Puzzles, probably. After all it is a Bioware game. I'm not sure this is a bonus but at least its not shooting, shooting, and then more shooting.

>Customizable weapons and some sort of super powers as well as a developed technology tree that the player can access to learn abilities like distrupting laser-shields protecting enemies and probably how to open locked boxes because again, this is a bioware game.

>Alien Bitches

>Fully customizable appearance for the player character so you don't have to play as the ugly ass Eminem lookalike they have in the screenshots.

>Apparently "advanced" AI

>Plot changes developed by the choices made by the player eventually resulting in multiple varied endings.
