It looks boring because you aren't playing it. Generally watching someone playing an RPG your gonna be bored, because your not interacting, your only watching. While the person who is playing is concerned with a load of stuff, in the RPG world as I call it >.>. Just wait until you play it

Not true at all. I could look at a Halo 3 game video or Killzone 2 E3 vid and get pumped up cause it looks freaking crazy! Get's the blood pumping a bit faster. I can look at FF13's trailer from E3 06 and just go bonkers as the FF fanboy in me starts screaming out for some next-gen FF gaming. Mass Effect just looks boring.

You didn't respond to his quote. He said RPG, so your halo and killzone responses are out. Then, you said FF TRAILER which is really in no way the same as watching the game being played.

At any rate, just give it up. If you think it's boring, sweet, but you're going to have a hard time convincing anyone that 3rd person combat mixed with possibly the most compelling and massive story available on consoles is boring.

The store manager at my local game crazy doesn't like xbox much, but after playing mass effect at a game crazy games convention, he said it will be game of the year hands down. He seemed extremely impressed by this game, so if he likes it that much, I'm sure it must be really f'n good considering how picky he is.

Then I'll revert back to the hype building in me when I saw some Japanese FFXII footage when I couldn't play the game in english just yet. RPG, shooter, it's still answering the question.

I watch the Mass Effect video and need to get a box of tissues.

Alright, that's cool. Some of us are over FF though, and we'd say the same thing about that played out series.

If it's anything like KOTOR than I'll probably be bored with it in a few hours.

mass effect, isn't a half assed realtime game or a chess game with metro sexual characters, mass effect is 100% realtime greatness ant 100% rpg, if it looks boring to you then you must be looking in the wrong genre cuz there is no rpg as sophisticated as ME.

Indeed. FF and DQ are childs play when compared to the superior ME.
