Mass Effect Impressions

Could Mass Effect be the deepest role playing game for the Xbox 360 yet? Yes. Yes it could. The developers demoed a bunch of actual in-engine gameplay and in-game cutscenes for us earlier today, showing off just how far they've come since the last E3.

"we can't wait for November" - me too. The pics look ....very next gen!

"Everything looks *fantastic*."

"All those trailers you've seen are actually of in-game footage."

"When you zoom close in on alien characters, they look just as good as any of the Unreal Engine demos... if not better."

"Traveling from planet to planet... looks as good as any special effects on say, the show Battlestar Galactica."

"Dialogue... actually seem like an interactive cutscene."

"Did we mention that the character models look great? They do."

"The action was very smooth and very cinematic."

"(Certain scenes) actually had you making life and death decisions based on your dialogue choice. "

"There is vehicular combat."

"A lot of things can be customized in terms of weapons, skills, and vehicles..."

"The game's due in November, and judging from the completeness level of the demo they've got now, there's no doubt that the game will be fantastic when it's released."

Of course without a bunch of half-naked children to lust after, it probably won't go over well with certain groups.

So far PS3 fanboys and Sony Protection Groupies have stayed out of all recent Mass Effect news.

For example, in the Mass Effect E3 trailer article yesterday, there's not a single one Sony fanboys in there. I was waiting for a Sony fanboy to show up and to see what he would say. But none has ever showed up, which is just like... wow, a miracle. Because those Sony fanboys love to crap in Xbox 360 threads at every chance they have.

I think they first wanted to say something, but after they watched the trailer, and they then decided instead to start a petition to get Mass Effect for PS3.

Which is not gonna happen, because Microsoft is the publisher.

I think yourll find people with a ps3 have enough games coming out this year to not be fussed at all about this, they still have imo the greatset rpg series ever final fantasy.

So give it a rest and just enjoy ya own games and let them enjoy theres lol

razer6807d ago

This is #1 on my must own list. I not only think it will be the best RPG this year but probably the best RPG/Action/Sci-fi adventure game ever on a console. The dialogue mechanics are amazing and the graphics are unbelievable. I really think this is as close to feeling like your in a movie as it gets. It has GOTY written all over it.

rev206807d ago

Best RPG on a console its gonna have to go some to beat

final fantasy 7 imo that game was perfect from start to finish. werll see though ;)

Sangheili856807d ago

lol 1 bubble fanboy... Now that KZ2 as shown it's worth in graphics he says thats all he needs. No offense to actually game lovers of both systems but 360 has had gears which looks amazing for a while now.

I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed

Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.

toxic-inferno114d ago

I feel the same way.

I mean, how difficult would it be for them to release SOMETHING of substance? Another short trailer? A couple of proper hints? A short story set during the original trilogy, but focused on fringe characters?

Hopefully they're working so hard on the game that they don't have time. But still, with every passing year and so little to show, the franchise will be slipping further and further from people's minds.

Profchaos113d ago

Yeah agree it's almost a cop out since Dev times are 5 to 10 years just throw out a few seasons instead you get them done in a year

jznrpg114d ago

I still haven’t beat Andromeda. I am waiting for a lull of good games in my backlog

P_Bomb114d ago

So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?

Rebel_Scum113d ago

Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”

ApocalypseShadow1009d ago

Good games but no Phantasy Star?

merlox1009d ago

Why do people forget Phantasy Star? That is one of my favorite RPG series. Another ther good but overlooked series is ,Y's.

anast1009d ago

ES3 set things off, it's a shame they got greedy and decided to cut corners so the executives could get huge pay days.
