CVG reviews Mass Effect

They say your first is always the one you remember the strongest. It's certainly true of the first planetary landing you make in Mass Effect. There may be greener, denser, more populated spheres, but your first landing is special. It's one of those moments. The kind of event that, ten or twenty years from now when the mainstream media are no longer scared of all the flashy lights and loud bangs, will be at the business end of those pitiful 'Top 100 Gaming Moments' list things that Channel 4 commission so very, very often. You can imagine how it would go.

guys as i predicted in my forum post last week, its the same review that was in XboxWorld 360 magazine that i got and posted in the forums.

this game is getting rave reviews across the board.

Mass effect FTW!!

ThaGeNeCySt6753d ago

unfortunately.. MS deemed it necessary for my xbox360 to "break" just days away from it's release... how convenient.. my replacement 360 didn't last 2 weeks before giving me an "unplayable disc" error

:[ My most anticipated game of all time and i can't even enjoy it.

predator6753d ago

i feel for u dude, really do, hopfully ur new 1 come sback with the extra heatsinks or even replaced with 65mn chips.

ThaGeNeCySt6753d ago

lol it already came back with the extra heatsink.. after a 2 year run, my 360 caught the RROD and I got it back November 8th... a week later i'm plagued by "unplayable disc" errors...

*cries*

predator6753d ago

that happened to me but it was only with 1 game, the inner cirle on the dvd was craked, is this with all games, can u still play dvds?

ThaGeNeCySt6753d ago

any disc i put in the drive (music cd, cd-r, dvd, game, etc)... i even went so far as to put a music cd in there and flip the 360 from horizontal to vertical to see if it'll scratch the disc.. the drive isn't even spinning.. lol so i have to get another box, send it off, wait another 2 weeks, etc

They betray you by making sure that your console BREAKS DOWN IMMEDIATELY. I know there's nothing more depressing than opening up your new crapbox game just to see it Red Ring on your @ss.

This game looks really good. I wouldn't be surprised if it got Game Of The Year.

AIZEN SOZUKE6753d ago

looks as good as glitches of ware, which was also the most 180 could do in graphics, with the last reserves 180 had also for graphics

goodganja446753d ago

I cant wait for this game to be ported to PS3. Thanks to Electronic Arts.

You are not helping this site get any better.

Microsoft owns the rights for the trilogy.

kn6753d ago

Dr. Greg Zeschuk is the President and a Co-Executive Producer at BioWare Corp. He stated that it was a trilogy and would not be exclusive to the 360. Given that, I'd assume there is an incredibly small chance it will be seen outside of the 360. That doesn't mean things will change over time, but it will take nothing short of an official company announcement that it is coming to another platform for me to believe it.

EDF 20176753d ago

I am only 2 hours in and I must say it is the best game on the 360 right now. PIcs taken from my blackberry pearl. Enjoy!!!

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.

toxic-inferno190d 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.

Profchaos190d 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

jznrpg190d ago

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

P_Bomb190d ago

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

Rebel_Scum190d ago

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

ApocalypseShadow1085d ago

Good games but no Phantasy Star?

merlox1085d ago

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

anast1085d 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.
