Mass Effect 2

[Darth Caedus]

I just hope that their isn't a "get out of the ship, shoot geth, go to a level, leave, shoot geth, get back on the ship".....after about 100,000 times it got boring

No, you left out "talk to random NPC, shoot geth, talk to random NPC, shoot geth, leave." There's a bit of variety there at least. I just tired of the boring sidequests on those barren uncharted planets. Oy.

And the whole "shoot, leave, shoot" idea covers much of the FPS spectrum. i.e. Gears of War, Halo, Killzone.

And then watch shiny cutscenes

I don't want to wait till next year for this game.

 

[Matt S]

Loved ME! Cannot wait for this one...as long as the story is there, the dialogue is there, framerate issues are addressed, this game is golden!

You guys might be interested in the Mass Effect Premium Theme for the 360 dashboard. I think its one of the best designed for the system.
The Fable themes are also nice.

 

[gannon]

I cant wait for this to come out. Hopefully we'll get a lot more info when E3 comes around.

There are two prem themes; one available online and the other via the second disk in the 'GH' edition...far as I know

Looks utterly amazing! Can't wait!

 

[plasmid303]

I was wondering which actor could play Captain Shepard if a Mass Effect movie were ever made. I think the best choice (based on the default Shepard appearance) would be Matthew Fox. He looks the part and he played Jack Shepard in Lost.

Great trailer, btw.

 

[Matt S]

New teaser looks fantastic. I am replaying Mass Effect right now on Hardcore mode, and cant wait for ME 2!

 

[Mighty_Jabba]

I love the first game, but this already looks ten times better! I can't wait!!! Guess Shepard is not dead after all.

I think that would be everyone's pick, my friend and I have said that since the game came out.

 

[Darth Caedus]

I'm just curious as to what the plot of the game will be.

Shepherd stopped Sovereign from summoning the reapers through the mass relay inside of the citadel. I wonder if someone else will try to summon them.....?

 

[Matt S]

Spoiler

Omega should be a cool location for game 2....it was in book 2, and is the opposite of the Citadel in the sense that there are few rules govering the place

 

[jnmx2000]

my question is, why did they even tease that he was dead? he was alive at the end of the first game and in one of the endings he took the place of the council? or at least thats the ending I got.

BioWare Teases Arrival of Commander Shepard Statue
Written Friday, June 19, 2009 by Dan Webb


For the last few hours over on Twitter, BioWare have been teasing followers with a jigsaw style puzzle, finally culminating in the finished article a matter of minutes ago; the Commander Shepard statue.

Whilst no details are known at current time, all we know is that it's "Coming Monday to the BioWare store."

The image of this Shepard statue is below, but other than expecting something Monday, there isn't much more we can tell you. Usually I'd snap something like this up, but the quality portrayed in the photo is a little ... how do I put this? "Meh." We'll just hope for better quality images when Monday comes around ... that, and international shipping (which I can confirm, that they do - just checked).
