*UPDATE* Mass Effect X06 demo trailer on Xbox Live now |
Ó
Take an age-old plot line of "post-apocalyptic survival" and time warp it into the 23rd century, and you get something of the Third Reich in whole new level. While Planet Sera has that sort of thing going on, FPS-style, Mass Effect is serving it up through the RPG genre. It's going to be a holocaust of organic lifeforms as an alien race of machines are about to come back after 50,000 years in order to harvest some living organisms.
Yes. It's an RPG. That's how BioWare puts it. But maybe some of you would rather have it as action-RPG, what with all the aliens to blow up, machines to handle, and hi-tech weapons to carry. Regardless, you can check it out for yourself soon enough.
By today, December 8, the developers are going to upload their X06 demo trailer on their website and right on Xbox Live! They're not sure what time it's going to be there, but they assume around mid-morning (in Alberta, Canada). Maybe by the time you're reading this, it's already available for download, so better keep tabs on your Xbox and behold the glory of an alien invasion.
*UPDATE!* The video's out! If you haven't been able to catch it in Xbox Live yet, or if you're trying to save some valuable memory space, then why not just click below to check the full vid itself. It's Mass Effect in all it's 5:22 minutes glory, including a commentary from Project Director Casey Hudson himself!

The words Mass Effect and demo got me excited then I read trailer, dang it! But, I'll still d/l it. This game is the must have for 2007, not Halo.
uncalled for vecha
Is This Game Just Gonna Play Like Oblivion Its An RPG Right, Online? And Can U Customise Your Character You Play?
the game doesnt even look good, its a flop
Guess you never play knights of the old republic... dumbass.
But still, not really. If the developer's previous games are anything to go by (Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2) then it will be more of a traditional (American, of course) RPG. It's kinda hard to explain, just go play KOTOR if you haven't, both are amazing. But I can tell you that yes, there will be a level of customization far greater than that found in Oblivion. And no, I believe it's not online. The guy below me is a douche and is just jealous that his precious PS3 WISHES it had RPGs that look this good, when that is the Playstation's most prominent genre. Suck it Sony-lovers
if your going based on the video here on qj, your igorance is excusable, it doesn't do the game justice at all... besides since when is graphic quality been the only factor in a game's success? look at GTA3/VC, they look like crap and yet everyone still played them. here's hoping a KOTOR3 using the mass effect engine announcement comes next year.
