This game is totally overrated. It's not at all innovative, just Knights of the Old Republic + Gears + GRAW, with some lesbian alien sex mixed in.

 Knights of Old Republic won roughly 40 "game of the year" type awards around the globe.  Gears?  Same. GRAW? Extremely well regarded game and still considered one of the finest tactical shooters to date.  Combine the three and what do you have?  Probably an insanely amazing game that will have a solid shot at being a huge winner.  Add some lesbian alien sex?  NOW it's next gen!

 

Thanks for playing, sinha.  Drive through, please.

I'll be driving through the "at least I know what sarcasm is" lane, unlike some of you.



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick

It's ok. I figured you were being sarcastic but it's hard to convey when typing

 

On topic:

Mass Effect is going to be THE game for me this year. 



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

Can you seriously go troll somewhere else. You sign on day in a day out and troll in threads. Leave.

Troll? I own a 360. And I have been saying Mass Effect will be the Game of the Year for like four months.

You are a total moron. Seriously, you should be in special education classes. It was a joke, perhaps the concept hasn't yet reached whatever godforsaken town you live in.


WOW I'm a moron for stating I don't agree with your opinion. You seriously need help dude.

What opinion of mine do you not agree with?

@W29 and sinha

Alright guys, settle down. It was a misunderstanding.

Yay for Bioware--one of the (arguably) best western developers.

It's hard to see Mass Effect being anything less than spectacular.

My most anticipated game of the year, by far. I'm also holding out hope that MS will convince Bioware to port Dragon Age to the 360... everything Bioware touches turns out fantastic.
