Mass Effect 3 - Part 3

[SolarTiger]

Is it too late to preorder the CE with Gamesto/EB games? Or is there still plently of time?

 

[zenith16]

ummmm I'd have to say try amazon. if you went at the beginning of December or November I'd have said you have plenty of time. But.......

 

[The Squirrel]

Amazon seems to always have plenty of CEs for games.

Guess I'll be playing some Kingdoms of Amalur Demo.

Who's going to download the January 17 demo for38 Studios fantasy action-RPG Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning? Now that folks that play it earn exclusive armor and weapons for Mass Effect 3, I'd say everybody. In a completely brilliant marketing move, BioWare and 38 Studios have inexorably linked the incredibly popular Mass Effect series with the new and untested Kingdoms of Amalur series. Downloading and completing the demo for the fledgling RPG franchise unlocks a pair of striking in-game items in the full version of Mass Effect 3.
The Reckoner Knight Armor brings the pain up-close while enhancing projectile speed for ranged weapons, earned by simply downloading and playing the Reckoning demo. To earn the disc-spitting Chakram Launcher you'll have to finish the demo and sit through a brief movie.
In exchange, BioWare is lacing the upcoming Mass Effect 3 demo with in-game items for Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, a fact I'm sure will drive plenty of Amalur fans to try Mass Effect for the first time. Actually it might work the other way around in this instance. That N7-inspired armor is damn sexy, and the Onmiblade Daggers are just what this rogue-at-heart needs to get pleasantly pokey up in here.
I bet Curt Schilling is just thrilled.
"We are thrilled to have the opportunity to deliver this massive one-two punch with Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning and Mass Effect 3. We wanted to provide fans of the Mass Effect franchise with a unique set of rewards for diving into the expansive universe of Reckoning," said Curt Schilling, Chairman and Founder of 38 Studios via official press release.
BioWare co-founder Dr. Ray Muzyka is on the record as being excited. And heck, I'm excited too. I was planning on downloading both demos anyway, and now I'll have pretty things to show for it. What a perfectly lovely way for new franchise to gain a boost from an old, and all without costing the consumer anything more than bandwidth and hard drive space.
The Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning demo drops January 17. The full game drops March 6.

Shepard bought that armor at Hot Topic.

 

[Erzengel]

I always liked the dragon armor in ME2.

You can, at the very least, still preorder it at the website: http://www.ebgames.com/xbox-360/games/mass-effect-3-n7-collectors-edition/91368

I'm fairly sure you can still preorder it in store as well. I'll check with a buddy of mine to make sure.

That has been my armor since day 1. If we can import armors in Part 3. I will be sticking with that armor again

 

[Benstamania]

Never cared for the Blood Dragon armor... Due to the fact that it has perma helmet and it doesn't look futuristic enough for me.

 

[Soapy]

Yeah. It sort of looks like a medieval Cylon.

 

[Wolfwood]

I loved the Blood Dragon Armor as well, just wished I could've removed the helmet.

 

[Donut]

I wonder if that data from the Lost Operative mission in Mass Effect 2 will play a role in Part 3 ? Apparently it had enough info to make Cerberus look bad. So I sent that sucker to the Alliance

 

[Soapy]

Hmm. I kept it. You never know when that kind of information might come in handy.

Mass Effect 3 trailer talks voice acting, shows Shepard recording sessions


http://www.pcgamer.com/page/3/



The perfect conditions for voice acting have the actors face to face, feeding off each other’s performance, establishing a degree of chemistry sorely lacking from many game performances. The latest episode of Bioware pulse goes inside Bioware’s sound studios to explain why that simply isn’t possible. With so many characters and so many voice actors in different locations, it’s a logistical nightmare. The video above explains how the devs get around this using long distance calls and lots of organisation. Skip to the two minute mark to get straight to the interesting bit.

And all we have to do is play the Amalur demo and beat it? It's TOO EASY!

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

I probably won't use the armor but its a good excuse to play the demo and get another suit in the armory for ME3.

 

[BrollySupersj]

I'm in it for the gun. I love Chakrams.

 

[zenith16]

hehe guess you were heavy into xena: warrior princess then brolly, she's what made that weapon popular after all .

 

[ProjectPat2280]

Are we gonna be able to remove our helmets mid mission this time? I really hated they took that out for the second game.

 

[Soapy]

The Mass Effect Reckoning armor looks cooler than the Reckoning Mass Effect armor.

...I hope that made sense. :/

 

[BrollySupersj]

What I would really like is for the dev team to make breather parts for helmet sets that don't have them. Kestrel and Capacitor helmet I'm looking at you. I hated having my Shepard adorned with the full Kestrel armor pack, only to see the N7 breather helmet replacing the Kestral helmet on some missions. Annoyed the hell out of me.
