From IGN:

"After the half hour meeting, those of us present were so excited about the game we had a hard time concentrating on the next game's demo. Although there is still room for improvement in smoothing out the game, Mass Effect has once again vaulted to the top of our most wanted lists for 2007."

http://kotaku.com/gaming/e307/mass-effect-impressions-277810.php

From Kotaku:

"That said, everything looks fantastic. The framerates are totally smooth (with occasional stutters that we'll chalk up to it being almost done, but not quite), and the characters look gorgeous. All those trailers you've seen are actually of in-game footage, and when you zoom close in on alien characters, they look just as good as any of the Unreal Engine demos we've been seeing for years."

"The game's due in November, and judging from the completeness level of the demo they've got now, there's no doubt that the game will be fantastic when it's released."

But if you really want to see it... http://www.gamespot.com/video/930279/6174539/mass-effect-stage-demo-1

If you want to understand how good Mass Effect really is, just focus in on, besides the beautiful gameplay footage, the interviewers face. Pretty much the only words to describe it are "totally stoked". If you look at the rest of the interviews he does on Gamespot, there isn't another game that impresses him like this.

GOTY? It's coming, this November.

If Rich Gallup (Spelling?) was reviewing Mass Effect he would've given it a 10. Seriously, look at him. He has the excitement you see in children on Christmas.

Can you blame him? This game has class written all over it!

Yeah, he probably would give it a 10. And he'd be off, but I don't think by much.

By the way, I like the sig Vlad

Hey, if it was me sitting in Rich Gallup's spot I would've scrapped the interview and just watched the monitor as the guy played it.

PS: Thanks for the compliment about the sig.

I'm positive the game has multiple paths, so there's no way Bioware left out multiple endings, prone to love sidestories and large ethical decisions as they are.

I agree about the running animation though, looks exactly like the KOTOR ones and it never really looked right to me.

I agree that ME could be GOTY. I know it's dangerous to hype games, but ME has all the right ingredients for a GOTY nomination.

It does have multiple paths, and they aren't supposed to be as transparent as KOTOR was especially because there isn't the dark side/light side limitations of the Star Wars license.
