Gizmo Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 http://www.gametrailers.com/player/24946.html Eugh, combat is so slow. Doesn't seem very exciting at all.
Dilli Gee Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 That clip is dull, agreed. But I doubt it's always like that.
McPhee Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 Hang on, this is out in November? Is it just me or is November kind of packed? Mass Effect Assassin's Creed Call Of Duty 4 UT3 (for those with PCs/PS3s) In a single month? Some sources are saying Orange Box is November too, making it even more silly
Guest Jordan Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 Orange Box is out late Oct for PC's. But yeah, Mass Effect isn't my kinda game at all. But it looks and sounds fantastic.

Mass Effect Assassin's Creed Call Of Duty 4 UT3 (for those with PCs/PS3s) In a single month? Some sources are saying Orange Box is November too, making it even more silly It sure is. Add Mario Galaxy to that this too. Madness.
Dante Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 BBFC: MASS EFFECT is a role playing game and shooter set in the future in space. The player controls either a male or female American soldier through a long and involved story line, making choices along the way. The game has been classified at '12' for moderate violence and one sex scene. The violence is undetailed and takes place in a futuristic setting. The single sex scene is brief and undetailed, although there is breast nudity in one version of the scene. The sex scene is triggered by the player making a series of choices about becoming more than friends with a colleague. If playing as a male character the scene can take place between him and a human woman or a humanoid female alien. If playing as a female character the scene can take place between her and a male human or a female humanoid alien. The game also contains use of the word 'bastard' and at least one aggressive use of the word 'bitch'. Both of which are acceptable under BBFC Guidelines at '12'.
Gizmo Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 Hahaha yeah, saw that on GameFAQs. Is it wrong I've now decided to make a Female character?
The fish Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 Hang on, this is out in November? Is it just me or is November kind of packed? Mass Effect Assassin's Creed Call Of Duty 4 UT3 (for those with PCs/PS3s) There's also PGR4 on the same day as Assassin's Creed, apparently. I know which day I'm going to be suddenly "ill"... Back on topic, this game looks better every time I see it! Where the fuck am I going to get the money for all these great looking games? Meh.

The fish Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 PGR4 comes out on 12th of October. Ah shit, that's even earlier... Big, fat money issues, here, and I need a new year on Live.
Fruitgun Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 The sex scene is triggered by the player making a series of choices about becoming more than friends with a colleague. If playing as a male character the scene can take place between him and a human woman or a humanoid female alien. If playing as a female character the scene can take place between her and a male human or a female humanoid alien. Wait, what? Man that sucks, well for me, a girl, anyway :P How come the guys get THREE things to pick from? (If they play as a Female Character, you get the third one :P) I wanted some Turian alien love But anyway, hooray! This comes out on the 23rd November. I can't wait. But I must. GAAHHH By the way, is anyone going to get the Collectors Limited Edition set? I've heard there's going to be an art book or a figure in it or something.
gaggle64 Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 It is a little odd that female players/characters don't get the same choice. Somebody should write in and complain. Also, like, a jillion new vids just hit Gamespot. Get em' while they're hot! What appears to be the opening sequence: http://uk.gamespot.com/video/930279/6178944/mass-effect-gameplay-movie-13
McPhee Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 Maybe the "humanoid female alien" is of a female-only race therefore forcing the gender choice?
Mundi Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 The sex scene is triggered by the player making a series of choices about becoming more than friends with a colleague. If playing as a male character the scene can take place between him and a human woman or a humanoid female alien. If playing as a female character the scene can take place between her and a male human or a female humanoid alien. What being gay in the game is not allowed but being lesbian is? Spread the love man
The Bard Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 This game is looking like the best thing ever. I wonder what the music's like...
theguyfromspark Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 This game is looking like the best thing ever. I wonder what the music's like... One thing's for sure, there isn't any Wham! Pet Shop Boys or Eurasure on the soundtrack, the dirty homophobes!

Daft Posted September 19, 2007 Author Posted September 19, 2007 This game is looking like the best thing ever. I wonder what the music's like... This is on Eurogamer: There's an '80s overtone to the whole thing, created in large part by the brilliant music. Zeschuk describes it as "classic '80s electronica" but it's specifically evocative of the kind of electronica featured in '80s sci-fi films, the properly frightening ones with the biodomes and the mad robots. There's a ponderous, ominous feel to it that works superbly. Sounds promising.
The Bard Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Yeah. I liked the music in the opening trailer. Atmospheric.
gaggle64 Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Bioware are saying they are aiming to complete the entire Mass Effect trilogy within this generation of hardware. That's a lofty goal. I just hope they don't stop after three. http://kotaku.com/gaming/sweet/mass-effect-trilogy-completed-within-this-gen-301246.php
Guest Jordan Posted September 19, 2007 Posted September 19, 2007 Hot lesbian action and its only a 12+? Also... boobs? Christ. I hope that gets on youtube :p
Daft Posted September 19, 2007 Author Posted September 19, 2007 http://kotaku.com/gaming/sweet/mass-effect-trilogy-completed-within-this-gen-301246.php A trilogy, all this generation, I'm sold.
