Mass Effect

[Fox 6]

So im about 14 hours into the game and well I love it to death. Im only on the 2nd story world, and the stroy is already grabbed me. It takes about 8- 10 hours to get used to the hybrid shooter/rpg style of the game, and the interface with team mates, euqipment, weapons and upgrades. This is one of the best games ive ever played. The dialouge is so brillantly done. Bravo bioware, bravo.

Now its October, and while you have enjoyed your hot chick all month, a Playboy playmate comes up to you and says "I want you to pound my Vag". While you've spent a wonderful month with the hot chick, its pretty hard to pass up the playmate, especially when its only been a month with the hot chick.

Now its November, and a young, pre-Brad Pitt Angelina Jolie walks up to you and says she wants to "fulfill every fantasy you've ever had with a woman". Score. Goodbye playmate, at least for now.

This is the plight of the 360 owner. There are so many options with a new great game seemingly coming out every month. Its not a bad thing. Its a goooooood thing. In the end, its what convinced me to pick up a 360 before a Wii.

Meanwhile the Wii owner is satisfied with one very hot chick, who he has a on and off relationship with over 20 years and he won't see for a few more weeks. In the mean time he spends all his time talking and thinking about her until she gets here again. In common terms, thats referred to as "pussy whipped".

But leave it to Nintendoids to try and spin the fact that 360 has such a great library into a BAD thing. Kind of funny.

Wow.

So I picked it up. Only an hour and 18 min in. So far its pretty fun. The dialouge is very well done, easily one of the best parts of the game ( and it should be if its a rpg.) The whole character customizing is very vast compared to most rpgs. It ensures that you're sheppard wont look the same when you play through it again. If you guys have any questions ask them and ill try to do my best to answer them without giving away the story.

Wonderfully, thank you.

Crackdown is more than a Game of the Month. It's still one of the best games on the platform. Same with COD4, easily the best shooter of this generation.

Bioshock was indeed a GOTM, because it sucked. It was more of a game of the hour. Halo 3 made for a good month, but after playing COD4, it would be hard to go back.

As for Mass Effect, I can't watch a demo of it without losing interest. Not even going to bother renting this one.

Yes.

Summary: Game sucks. But we all knew that.

I can't wait to get my hands on this game... only a few more days...

Watching yourself getting it on with a blue alien then asking for seconds is hilarious, and not just a little creepy.
