Editor’s Note: We are aware that these games are also available on the PC. Unfortunately, we are not a PC gaming website – so, we did not include that version in this comparison. Perhaps we will include a PC gaming section on our website in the near future."
Bioware writes: "Like you, we’ve heard the rumors lately. You’ve made it clear you care deeply about what’s next. So let’s start by setting the record straight: the next Mass Effect game is in development, and EA and BioWare remain committed to telling more stories in this universe."
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.
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.
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
So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?
Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”
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.
I laughed when I first saw this in the approval section: "NextGN writes: "Finally! Mass Effect 2 is coming to the PlayStation 3 – about time, too. However, like Call of Duty, the Mass Effect series is best experienced on the... | PC"
I only have a PS3 and had no plans on buying a 360 just to play it. Guess I'll just have to suffer...
And honestly, how the fu*k is "Belongs on Xbox 360" an actual legitimate reason? More so when you bring up the PC version and promptly ignore its existence? Make a statement to that exact fact.
I respect his opinion. I personally think it's best to me on the PC because You can play the first game (which helps draw you into the world), carry saves onto the next game(so you have a feeling of continuity),the game is cheaper than all the versions including future purchases (more so with the steam sale), plus the graphics look pretty amazing.
This article is such a joke.
"Born on the 360"
lol...what a joke.
I'm sorry I couldn't read the article because I had to keep wiping his tears off the print. This guy is acting like a damn child here. This is one of the most unprofessional write ups I've ever seen, he literally puts all his bias into the article without caution or care.
Is this an informative piece or a deceleration to Bio-Ware not to go through with the Ps3 version? I also wonder if this same dick twist wouldn't shout for joy if MGS4 was ported to the xbox 360.
Scary sad.
