NEW Mass Effect Screenshots. WOW


Recommended Posts

".......current success of the 360 in North America....." (fixed it for you)

".....it's not a shooter in the traditional sense."? Most pics of the game I saw found someone running around holding a gun of some sorts. The trailer I watched looked like someone running around in a 3rd person perspective aiming a gun. While I don't know the story-line to save my life, it looks like a rehashed Doom 3. (graphic-wise)

My point? You can't wrap a pig in a bear skin and call it a bear, it's still a pig. Sprinkling a few "RPG" features on top of a shooter is still a shooter. I'm not trying to change your opinion on the matter, just explaining my thoughts more clearly. To me, it's a shooter.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the game won't sell or be fun to play, it just won't likely make a lot of people think "wow, this is something new." It's a cookie cutter game, in my eyes.

Gears of War, Lost Planet, Mass Effect, Halo 3 (all advertised as a system seller)...... Seeing the pattern or do I have to draw you a map?

Bioware made SWKOTOR series and Jade Empire (which was great), which were RPG like and had a turn system (sort of) if this is anything like that then it will be great, also you may be living under a rock so let me tell you there there are also other system sellers for the 360 such as Fable 2 and Forza MotorSport 2 ... ZOMG!!!! my Nissan 350z will blow you away with its rocket launcher... Oh wait it aint no shooter :pinch:

Reason why PS2 sold so much in Japan was because of its RPG selection, japs love RPGs and others love sports and shooters so whats your point. RPGs were a system seller for PS2 just as shooters will be for Xbox360, along with the RPGs the 360 can chuck in (Blue Dragon etc)
