I really think BioWare makes some of the best games :P has anyone checked out BioWare's Mass Effect for the 360 coming out soon? If not, really should

http://www.gametrailers.com/gamepage.php?id=2211

seems like a sweet kinda FPS game with RPG elements :D The real in-game engine looks fun, the fact you can travel a huge galaxy.. so awesome it seems :P (kinda reminds me a bit of Freelancer in away but I don't know if there's space battles at all, if there are where you can upgrade your ship and such it would be like Freelancer + more interactive on a planet which would be awesome).
 
It's a spawn from the classic System Shock series and my god... it's going to be so awesome.
 
I'm still undecided on it. I'm not really a huge FPS fan i generally like my RPGs...well as RPGs. Other than the battle system though everything looks great so i'll have to give it a go.

Main concern atm is that apparently your chance to shoot someone will be based on your aiming and your skill/attributes. Would really suck if you aim for a headshot then your character goes "Ooops" and misses by a mile.
 
In Bioware I trust. I too am a little thrown off by the fps being in my rpg but dammit Bioware never steers me wrong.
 
I don't think it'll be a big problem :P Deus Ex had RPG elements to it and I still say it is the best FPS of all time still (single player at the very least, there was a patch for multiplayer but it didn't have the fun "blow up each other's base with tanks and nukes and special units" like C&C: Renegade). The story looks to be fun to do too, the HUGE galaxy to explore, I don't remember seeing if there are any space fights or space things you can do (like in Freelancer :D) but if there was I'd prolly consider this one of the best games ever.
 
mass effect is over shoulder shooter no?

edit:RPG, with over shoulder shooter qualities?
 
that's what it seems to be, ya :P Might be able to change camera views, but who knows for sure right now.
 
Judging from the gameplay trailer, I think it's third person.
 
This game looks amazing, i can't wait for it to come out. I loved the Kotor games and this one looks like its gonna be 10x better. Gameplay looks sick and the graphics look bad ass, i heard some rumors that it might be released before mid july to since thats when E3 is and there isn't going to be a Mass Effect booth at E3 which doesn't make any sense since you cant get better advertisement then E3. Hope its true.

E3 is basically over, they have changed the format to a small, private developer meeting with a bit of press

Sadly, yeah. You aren't going to be hearing a lot of buzz every spring about up and coming games anymore =/

I think someone missed the memo. Sony sucked at E3 they cried, E3 is no more.
 
Going to be a great game man.
 
I have been waiting for this game since I bought my 360. It is supposed to be absolutely huge with a whole universe to explore. I have heard that it is supposed to have at least 60 hours of game play with side quests and all. I can't wait.
 
I'm looking forward to this one. Lucky me, it comes out right around my birthday.
 
Dunno what to buy first, Assassin's Creed or this.
 
Is that even a question? Both.
 
If only I had the money.
 
How about theft?
