Sorry. Mass Effect has no gameplay worthy of even AAA hype. All we have is a few pics and 15 FPS choppy framerate gameplay. 8.2 at Most imo. This game will flop bad. Which is why they dont show much gameplay footage on it.

Mass Effect won't achieve a ten. It's very, VERY unlikely that anything will in the near future. However, if it can live up to expectations, it will be amazing almost without a doubt. Bioware set out with extremely lofty goals even considering a game of this magnitude. The sheer intricacy and size of the game is one thing, but coupled with advanced technology and amazing looking graphics, it's borderline implausible in concept. If they pull it off, it's safe to say that this will be a true achievement of modern gaming. The game's aspects just all seem to click. From what we've seen, it looks like a great balance between a number of aspects. The dialogue system looks like it might change the face of story based RPGs, opening up new opportunities for cinematic immersion. The combat looks very fluid and accesible with real time action and squad management that add tactical depth on top of that provided by a number of role playing elements. Even more impressive than those if the sheer depth and magnitude of the game. Bioware's promise is central on the ability to explore a near plethora of locations in the galaxy, each fully developed and with its own intricacies. All intertwined with a promising space opera story that makes up the plot. The biggest criticism that I can give is that some  technical problems were visible in the X06 footage and otherwise. The framerate still looked a bit rocky, and in some of the places it looked like there was still a good deal of texturing and anti aliasing work to be done. I have the utmost confidence that Bioware will work out the small kinks and make this one amazing. Knowing Bioware, AAA for sure.

[QUOTE="shungokustasu"] You try not to expect too much from it, but one of the reason you bought a Xbox was for Mass Effect? Tell me does that makes sense to you.

You know, some people actually like BioWare's games. I would buy a PS3 ASAP if they released an exclusive title for it...
Which is why they dont show much gameplay footage on it.nanomecha4
Let me see: BioWare showed a pre-rendered trailer of what they wanted to accomplish at E305. BioWare then gave us a trailer, and a walk-through at E306. At X06 we were treated to a new trailer, and a new walk-through. Not to mention the many screenshots they've posted. And... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwoAvsCrN_A&NR 15FPS... :roll:

Mass Effect's one of the reasons I got a 360 and for all those other awesome games. Of course, there's a possibility that it will do horrible, so I try to expect not too much from it. But I'm a huge fan of free-roamers, so hopefully, it'll do well. I'm thinking it'll range between 8.7-9.8Etware
MS published HALO 1,2 and 3 then Gears of War and now thier publishing Mass Effect, I think MS knows when a game has serious potential to be a winner!

No because the Mako will probably still drive like a Ford Crown Vic, and the explorable planets will still be pretty barren. But a 9-9.5 is a pretty safe bet.

this might have been a bit funny if this were bumped around the time the ME score was up

but it has been ages since the ME was released.....so upping this is just downright lame and reeks of desperation

Mass Effect was a massive disappointment.

I thought after KotOR, there's no way Bioware could make a bad Sci-Fi game.

How wrong I turned out to be.

All of those planets to visist were just barren wastelands with recycled dungeons.

And even the main planets turned out to be a disappointment.

The Citadel was the only place that was fun.

They should have gone the route of KotOR and just have a handful of unique and detailed planets.

I hope that Mass Effect 2 corrects it's predecessors mistakes or that they develop KotOR III.

Yes the game had some things which were less than perfect, but you're ignoring the things which were good about the game.

anyone could a game seem bad by only listing its negatives.

It was until I played it. Gamespot was right on when they gave it an 8.5. Written review was crap though.

But don't you think it speaks volumes about the libraries that you chose a game that scored an 8.5 to "show those lemmings"? An 8.5 "flop" is a little different than a 4.5 or 6.0 "flop" IMO.

Haze was heavily hyped too. The fact remains one's an 8.5, one's a 6.0. There's a slightly different quality between the finished products. To try to use an 8.5 "flop" as ownage for a 6.0 "flop" is stupid.

I agree with the TC, at the time it looked like a contender, nobody could have forseen the tech issues (which arent that bad). Its still a great game though. someones just a little mad about the whole "haze" thing.
