Mass Effect

By Josh Derocher Mass Effect isn’t a true, die-hard RPG. It is an action game with elements of a shooter and an RPG in it. Don’t take it the wrong way I love Mass Effect, it just wasn’t the 60 hour-long, incredibly detailed and customisable experience that I want from an RPG. Mass Effect was a “My first RPG’ experi...

By Tiamatini So, to summarise the story, without giving too much away, you are an Alliance agent in the future (2183 if I remember correctly) and ultimately you have to save the known universe.  The developing storyline is one of the best things about the game, so I don’t want to say too much, but essentia...

By Leo Worsdale Game: Mass Effect Mass Effect is set in a distant future; mankind has become one of a number of alien species that live in a ‘galactic community’, as a species we are seeking a seat on the council and a representative on the Spectres, a special forces group that are looked to, to defend the gal...

By thegame21x Due to my Mass Effect fandom, I bought the recently (and very, very quietly) released Pinnacle Station DLC without even thinking about it. Big mistake. So, I reviewed the content for Talk Xbox (my first review in months) and, in traditional fashion, here’s the first paragraph of said revie...

By fenrislathiin I’ve started it up again, this time with Bring Down the Sky (coolest DLC name ever, by the way) loaded onto my game.  I’ve played two characters: John Shepard- Super Paragon Vanguard, John Shepard- loyal to his friends and not a bigot, but a crazy Renegade Vangaurd and Amanda Shepard- badas...

Sounds cool, of course, but I'm not going to completely shoot my nerd load until there's a screenshot with one of the characters from the first game or something like that. Here's hoping that something cool will come out of the Mass Effect 2 ... Mass Effect 2 plot details revealed Zergwatch

By Chessack When you average all the scores, we end up with a C- for this game -- 7.1 out of 10.  This is probably the lowest I'd have rated any of Bioware's games, if I'd been running this blog and writing reviews while playing them.  I consider NWN, KOTOR, and Jade Empire to be "must play" games.  With all the p...

By Steven Artlip (Steve519) Immediately after Storm Rise we were ushered into another room where we saw Alpha Protocol, which to me looked a lot like a Mass Effect clone, not a bad thing. Alpha Protocol had a talk system a lot like Mass Effect, and even the combat ...

By Mike Fahey All of these similarities are simply coincidence though, as the folks at Obsidian - who have worked closely with BioWare in the past - assured me that they had started work on Alpha Protocol before Mass Effect was being developed. Whatever the case may be, AP looks like it is shaping up nicel...

By Alex Taldren I took a lot of time away from AoC and my guild this weekend to play Mass Effect (PC).  A few months ago, while visiting my brother at home, I played Mass Effect on their Xbox 360.  I put about 16 hours into the game and really enjoyed it, despite my constant annoyance with navigating RPG menus usi...

By Cynthia My gaming background consists mostly of RPGs. Prior to Mass Effect I hadn't played any FPS games for more than an hour or two.

When Dean Takahashi's game review for the Xbox 360's Mass Effect surfaced about a week ago, I was definitely surprised by the bold "Mass Defect" labeling and harsh criticism of the title. Just as the RPG/action game The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion had been poorly criticized by some early re...

By Mark Wilson It takes a big person to admit a mistake. And it takes an even bigger reviewer to do the same thing. Dean Takahashi wrote a fairly harsh review of Mass Effect...going as far as calling it "Mass Defect" (and making it cry all night and pass out over a half-eaten box of bonbons). And now, he's taking muc...

By YearOfTheLinuxDesktop the first review scored a 97.5%, it is one of the games with longest spoken dialogues (more than 15k lines, more than 400k words (2x times halo and NWN)) and it's coming from the same company that released a lot of other astonishing titles (the latest one being BioShock).
