Ok, as if you weren't excited enough about the upcoming release of Mass Effect 2 ( right around the corner 1-26-10). Here is a sneak peak at the latest variant cover for the upcoming comic from Darkhorse to launch days before the games release (1-6-10). Below is the first 6 pages of the comic and this has been floating around for a month or so but if this cover art is any indication the comic should be sweet since Dark Horse generally is the nuts. Where Mass Effect 2 begins with the story of the disappearance of Commander Shepard. The story of the aftermath is the hook of and exclusive property of these comics. The comic is co-written by lead Mass Effect game writer Mac Walters and Star Wars KOTOR's John Jackson Miller, with art from Star Wars: Legacy's Omar Francia.
One of the best things about the Mas Effect series is the companions you meet along the way. So here is a tier list of all the companions from Mass Effect!
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.
some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier
it's like bitch but your shirt back on, your not blue or spikey get away from me
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
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
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.

Looks pretty good :D
Nice!
Makes me want to hurry up and get through the books so that I'll be prepared for Mass Effect 2.
This is cool, I'm getting it.
Not a fan of Mass Effect, I don't see what the big deal is.
Cool pic. Might make an odd cover though.
I like the limited edition's cover best.
