Mass Effect Megathread - This one doesn't have time for your solid waste excretions! - Games

Probably created by Blur actually they make some of the best CGIs, even The Old Republic's one, and this also seems like their level of detail.

It'd be great if it's the aftermath of some sort of huge attack, but we don't realize until the end of the game that the Reapers did it

[url]http://vz2.blur.com/work[/url] Yeah they did the Mass Effect 2 trailer.

[QUOTE=ThePutty;26583732]It'd be great if it's the aftermath of some sort of huge attack, but we don't realize until the end of the game that the Reapers did it[/QUOTE] Something between ME2 and ME3 ? Well, considering that the 2 years passed between ME1 and ME2 both IRL and in-game, it could work the same way for ME3. So yeah, it could still be a spin-off game, just not a prequel.

[QUOTE=superdinoman;26583726]My computer could easily run the game looking like that, to bad it doesnt look so dark and epic.[/QUOTE] Pretty sure all it'd need are better particles, higher resolution textures and filters.

[QUOTE=Novangel;26583812]Pretty sure all it'd need are better particles, higher resolution textures and filters.[/QUOTE] Yeah pretty much. I'm going with what Crytek said though, the PC is a long ways ahead of consoles. I really am being to optimistic for new games though sadly, even if your average PC today could run near to fully realistic graphics.

[QUOTE=Novangel;26583562](Yeah haven't really played KOTOR :saddowns:)[/QUOTE] go do it

My post from BSN: [quote]It has been suggested by fellow forumites that the bridge that the sniper is looking at is the Westminster bridge. The fence appears to be identical to the one from the Houses of Parliament, too. Using Google Earth, I took a screenshot to see what the view of the sniper would be if he was on the Big Ben Tower. Looks like a match to me.

I guess I just wait for this weekend's Saturday until they give us some more media coverage.

I can't wait till Saturday. :(

I'm looking forward to seeing what this is. I hope it's not your standard FPS fare, though that seems likely.

[QUOTE=Novangel;26582546] Weekendwarrior that's your line.[/QUOTE] Yes, it is. I should get it copyrighted.

My squad choice [sp] everyone loyal, tali vents, accidentally put jack as fire team person and tali got rocketed in the face. Grunt as second leader and jack as biotic, all good.

[QUOTE=mercurius;26585828]Behold, you don't live at the Thames.[/QUOTE] true, i live in Northern Ireland, which i hope i get to go there. would be a great place for a battle, with all that landscape

[QUOTE=superdinoman;26586075]And 3 posts later :colbert: You're doing this on purpose[/QUOTE] I underestimated my own powers. If I dissappear, blame the CIA.

[QUOTE=Wiggles;26575842][img_thumb]http://i51.tinypic.com/24v7fjs.jpg[/img_thumb] Since the festive season is almost upon us, I thought it might be a nice idea to send out some specially themed Christmas cards for a select few Mass Effect fans. There will be five cards up for grabs and they each uniquely feature a different squad member, but the twist is that I won't be telling you which ones I've chosen until after the competition has finished and you won't know who will be receiving which card until they are delivered. To be in with a chance of winning, just PM me your answers to the following questions: [b]Who is your most favourite squad member?[/b] (This may or may not be a deciding factor in which card you get so choose wisely.) [b]Who is your least favourite squad member?[/b] (This may or may not be a deciding factor in which card you get so choose wisely.) [b]Why do you think you should be the recipient of an awesome Mass Effect card?[/b] The deadline for this competition is [b]Tuesday 14th December at 11pm GMT[/b] with the cards hopefully being finished and sent out the following day so they arrive in time for Christmas. [b]Please remember to PM me your answers[/b] so that I can easily find it, although feel free to post it in the thread as well if you like. Only one entry per user and entries cannot be changed once I have received them. Good luck, everyone![/QUOTE] Come on, everyone! I've only had two entries so far. If it helps I can post a sneak peak of how awesome these cards will be.

[QUOTE=Wiggles;26586399]Come on, everyone! I've only had two entries so far. If it helps I can post a sneak peak of how awesome these cards will be.[/QUOTE] Do that.

[QUOTE=Wiggles;26586399]Come on, everyone! I've only had two entries so far. If it helps I can post a sneak peak of how awesome these cards will be.[/QUOTE] I can't nail it down to one character which I love the most in my squad. If you say I'd have to sacrifice half of all my squadmates it would probably be easier than picking the best one. Also I love dialogues between them.

Am I the only one who liked Garrus more in ME1, before he became all dark and [I]edgy[/I]? He's still cool during missions, and he's more of a badass, but in general I prefered his attitutde in the first. I dont get what Joker means when he says Garrus pulled the stick out of his ass, cos I'd say if anything, he shoved a bigger one up there (no weird sexual puns intented)

was it the 11th this trailer is coming out plus choosing nationalty if you where Earthborn Shepard would be awesome if it somehow impacted the story, British shepard, thames battle = possible extra dialogue

I can't see how people lose squadmates during the suicide mission if they are all loyal. All squad choices are just common sense i.e tech in tube, leadership during squad leader, your strongest teammates to hold the line, your strongest biotics to do the biotic shield and your weak as shit to come with you to the reaper. They're all self explanatory.

Now he's a dashing scarred vigilante.
