Well I'm sure in this scenario they aren't going to receive five hundred calls from teenagers asking if they're really shipping it.

Dunno. Word about the lesbian scene seems to have gotten out. So the numbers might be smaller, but the calls could be creepier.

I guess ill pick a female my first time through as i play a good character. Playing as an asshole in the game just wouldnt feel right if i wasnt a dude.

I've thought about this a lot (more than was reasonable) and this is also how I'll be playing. Female adept paragon the first time through, Male soldier renegade the second time.

Game is already up on Ebay, as it was sold early at a K-Mart store:

Also from CAG:

There are rumors abound that the street date has been broken at various k-mart stores. Apparently Mass Effect arrived to box stores sometime in the last seventy-two hours.

I was out for 2 or so hours to see if any stores around my broke the street date. Even my no-customers-and-sketchy K-Mart didn't have it out. I forgot to check Toys'R'Us. I'll try again tomorrow.

And now begins the hunt.

Fuck, my mind is SHATTERING at the thought of having AC, Galaxy, and now THIS all at once.

Plans of staggering them are paper thin right now. xD

I KNEW THAT WAS THE RETAIL COPY!!!

I told you guys I saw it at K-Mart last night. I went back today and they had taken them down. Crap I should have picked it up even though I dont have a 360. Sorry to the guy that wanted me to get it for him, not there anymore.

Phil Spencer on the future of MGS' involvement with Bioware:

In terms of another acquisiton, the BioWare/EA deal has been perceived as a blow to MGS as well, especially as you’re publishing Mass Effect, and have presumably lost the potential sequel to that game…

Don’t assume that – we’re having discussions with BioWare. The first Mass Effect is still to come out, and I don’t want to get away ahead of that – the game has been built completely by that developer’s rules; it’s BioWare telling a story the way they want to tell it. So firstly I want to see how gamers respond to that. As for our future in that franchise – we feel very good about it, it’s still something that plays an important part in our portfolio, BioWare are a great partner, and I’m looking forward to discussing what we can do with them.

Some people were talking about planets a while back and I didn't say anything because I thought someone else would answer definitively.

Well, seeing as no one did, I thought I'd post that IIRC, it was made known on Bioware's forums that there was going to be somewhere close to FOUR HUNDRED planets. However, those are almost all not planets you can land on, only places you can search/scan for loot.

In terms of land-on-able planets, there's supposed to be over 30, with each of them having some storyline, or, at least, considerable side quests.

Nothing definitive, I don't have the game or anything but I thought I'd let you know what I heard.


Loving the TV ad.

Just continued my game with some real retail discs (as opposed to those early press review green discs) and thank god the chugging is gone and the loading is so much better/faster.

I would rush out and check every Kmart in the area, but I know it'd be a waste of time & gas. No stores ever break street date in my area. Ever.

Well I've got Super Mario Galaxy and Assassin's Creed to keep me company next week.

Till then, I guess I'll finish getting the Achievements in Sonic 360. It'll make those three games seem all the better by comparison. :lol

Welcome beautful toddler, Madison Elizabeth, to the horde!
If there are stores that have clearly broken street date, all stores should be allowed to do the same. Why they don't is beyond me.

Rrrrrrrrrgggghhh. I kind of want this game.

Not trying to troll or to derail the thread here:
Do 360s still die often, or has MS finally fixed that problem?

Okay, just finished a decent sidequest and decided to go and chat with some of my crew in the engineering section. They had a surprising amount of stuff to say. Pretty amazed by the depth of writing in this game. Bioware has really outdone themselves in the fleshing out of the NPC department.

Here are some random pics of the chatter down there. BTW, I'm like 30 hours into the game and the graphics STILL amaze me. I love this generation.

DISCLAIMER: my cell phone camera sucks - hard.
