Opinion: Dragon Age: It isn't Mass Effect

04 Nov 2009 14:51:04 PST

Written 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...

Overdue Review: Mass Effect

01 Nov 2009 19:05:05 PST

Written 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...

Mass Effect Pinnacle Station Review

09 Sep 2009 13:14:03 PDT

Written 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...

Game Review: Mass Effect

05 Aug 2008 20:48:24 PDT

Written 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...

Opinion: Alpha Protocol - Mass Effect For The Solo Spy Set

18 Jul 2008 07:20:00 PDT

Written 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...

Kind of a Review & Some Random Thoughts about ME 2

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. (I think the only other FPS game I'd played was Lost Planet and I only played that for a few hours). I'd played Neverwinter Nights 1 and 2 and the expansion packs but I've ne...
