The Official Mass Effect thread

[Erzengel]

I was just going to say, I hate having this thread bumped because I always anticipate a DLC.

But I'm excited.

While playing last night it hit me that Christian Bale, in John Conner mode looks a lot like Shepard.

I'll probably be importing my Soldier over to ME2.....I just don't care for any other class. I want to, more so to get the achievements but I just can't get into them. Infiltrator is my second favorit class, but the rest.......eh.

Which Shepard? Default Shepard?

Had to have been because my Shepard was black. And Bald. With a face scar. He was hardcore like that.

You know who looks a lot more like Shepard? Mathew Fox.

My Shepard is an Engineer all the way. Or Infiltrator or Sentinel. As long as I have my tech abilities. t:

You know who really really looks like Shepard? Mark Vanderloo.

It's aight. Basically it's just another asteroid. A good hour of gameplay I think if you take your time. And the ending is pretty cool, for $10 it wasn't that bad. :heart: You get to choose between cool prizes at the end too. But my Shepard is already a one-man army so it didn't really matter. LOL. I'd skip it and buy the newest DLC, should be out any day now.

 

[Soapy]

Bringing Down The Sky was awesome and very much worth downloading.

If you're into Mass Effect I'd say pick it up. There's a pretty fun moral choice near the end and it showcases the Batarians for the first time.

Just know that a lot of the environments from the uncharted planets are used again. In fact only one building actually features an all-new design.

Though, in their defense, I'd say that they actually put effort into the areas that are reused. The cover is smart and they play around with lighting and textures enough so that they at least look different from the standard.

Plus the Batarians are pretty much my favorite organic enemy (I play on Insanity) and they offer Mass Effect's most intense gun battles.

Pinnacle station theme and N7 avatar armor now up on the marketplace

 

[Paradyme]

You can buy avatar armor? I might've just found my new suit. Sweet action.

 

[Erzengel]

I'll alternate between that and my Obi-Wan armor.

 

[Dark Helmet]

No helmet though to match the N7 Armor like you can with the Alliance Armor sadly

 

[Flash Facts]

They added a lot more avatar content. link

 

[Bastila]

I'm going to download both add ons, and I saw the avatar outfit I must have hehe

 

[Erzengel]

The DLC is available today? I wag my finger at all of you for not informing me.

 

[Soapy]

I'm going to skip this DLC. I hear it's very light on story.

 

[Erzengel]

It's like 400 points. Like $5.

 

[Soapy]

It isn't a matter of price, this particular piece of content just doesn't appeal to me.

 

[Bastila]

The new level is like mini games beating top scores..I thought it would be more interesting..
I'll download the other one later

On other news, Mass Effect is going to the PS3.

When quizzed on why the developer chose not to bring the series to PS3, Muzyka said: "I think a more accurate way to frame it is to say we've announced we're developing Mass Effect for 360 and PC. Right from the beginning we said we wanted to deliver Mass Effect on the 360. Right now all we've announced is we're working on 360 and PC."
So a PS3 version might happen then? "We haven't announced anything on that front," said Muzyka. But it's not out of the question, we pressed. "We haven't announced anything on that," he repeated.

And that´s it.
Microsoft just lost another "exclusive"....and it serves them right.

[Erzengel]

How does it serve them right when every console has exclusives?

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

Plus that's hardly an admission.

 

[Master Chief]

Some people take company rivalry too seriously.
