Commander Shepard Confirmed for Mass Effect 2

Who said Commander Shepard was dead? According to Deeko, the July issue of OXM has Shepard on the cover, and a ten page article inside.

RememberThe3576128d ago

Ninver6128d ago

Master Chief
Commander Shepard
Marcus

Sanzee6128d ago

F*ck yeah to your "f*ck yeah!"

DUDE I'M WILLING TO SUBSCRIBE TO THE SH*TTIEST GAMING MAGAZINE IN THE WORLD TO READ THIS STORY! I absolutely love my Xbox 360 and even more, the game Mass Effect, but there is no denying that OXM simply sucks asshole. Literally. They suck rectum! They give sh*tty reviews. But who knows, maybe this story will save them... let it be so.

GAME INFORMER FTW

Hmmm...

Cant wait to play this and go on the planets.

TheAntiFanboy6128d ago

If they're not all barren wastelands and actually have some depth to them that makes them worth exploring (and that does NOT include random arbitrary collectible minerals or some crap like that), then I'll share your enthusiasm.

No Way6128d ago

Yes, because we all know that all the planets should be overly populated, eh? -.-

Darkfiber6129d ago

I don't get why people think he's dead. It was just a teaser trailer, it's clearly indicating that at some point in the game, your ship probably explodes or your team goes missing and everyone *thinks* you're dead but it's just a big misunderstanding and you come back in a blaze of glory and eggs. That's what I got out of it the first time I saw it, I never once thought that he/she would actually be dead, that's just silly.

TheAntiFanboy6128d ago

Yeah, it's kind of obvious...

No Way6128d ago (Edited 6128d ago )

Yea.. There is no way he would be dead.
How else would your previous stats be transferred?

Also, he didn't die in the first so,
He has to at least make an appearance in the second..
And, not dead at the beginning like some people assumed.

But, also, I agree with what you said.
Especially after seeing that one video that showed the ship on fire.
I would assume that because the ship is destroyed he couldn't transmit a signal.
Just makes me wonder how he escapes and survives, and all that.. o.O

Sangria6129d ago (Edited 6128d ago )

So it probably means he's officially dead, covered by the Council.

Grown Folks Talk6128d ago

the council die in my 1st playthrough.

RememberThe3576128d ago

I ended up letting them die every time I played through.

Sangria6128d ago

SPOILERS:
I made a career where i let them alive (they invite Mankind to the Council) and in the two other ones, i've let them die and chose who will be at the Council.
If Mass Effect's save datas have indeed an influence on Mass Effect 2, i just want to see what differences you can have with those options.

No Way6128d ago (Edited 6128d ago )

Yea, I did the same! :D

I wonder how much an impact the choices will have.
For example, would the story be different if you..
*SPOILER* =P
Saved Ashley, over Kaiden, and saved the council, then if you
Saved Kaiden, over Ashley, and saved the council. o.O
Hmmm, hopefully.. That would be cool and have LOTS of outcomes!

Mass Effect 2 is going to be even better than the first one, which was already in my top 5 games of all time. I cant wait to find out more about it at E3. I also wish Bioware would make a new Jade Empire. That game was awesome and deserves a sequel....crossing my fingers.

TheAntiFanboy6128d ago

Eh... I still prefer KOTOR over Mass Effect.

Grown Folks Talk6128d ago

I just want more diversity when you choose between the different characters. Story didn't really change outside of who flirted with you.

No Way6128d ago

Oh yes! A Jade Empire sequel would be awesome! :D

The order I like those games would be:
1. Mass Effect
2. KoToR
3. Jade Empire

But, all three games are awesome and amazing fun.

IAMRealHooman448d ago

Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast448d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine448d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast448d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman448d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast448d ago

Liam lol I can't stand that dude.

IAMRealHooman448d ago

it's like bitch but your shirt back on, your not blue or spikey get away from me

4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera

And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

DustMan696d ago

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave696d ago (Edited 696d ago )

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.
