From Playfuls.com: "Apparently, US retailer Target is either too scared or has the same experience in gaming as Cooper Lawrence, since they've begun pulling Mass Effect off shelves. What's even more absurd is that the game is actually in stock, but Target employees are not allowed to sell it..."
Thanks to their innovative approach to gaming, RPGs like Dark Souls, Final Fantasy VII, and Dragon Quest left a significant impact on the genre.
ES3 set things off, it's a shame they got greedy and decided to cut corners so the executives could get huge pay days.

The Mass Effect N7 Day teaser has already been decoded, and it features Liara T'Soni talking about The Council, and The Geth can be heard too.
Better not bring back Shepherd from the dead with some half assed space magic.
@snowb420.
Yeah I saw that at the end of my play through as well. I think they will bring Shepard back….. or at least a mutant version turned villain. Lol
Is this in light of the whole 10 second alien mind sex scandal thing?????if it really is due to this tell them to play the mini sex games in both GTA, God of War, a Leisure Suit Larry Game, or Ataris Custer's Revenge lol.....

This is beyond retarded
everyone, enjoy the next couple of years (if we even get that long...), becuase the video game industry is going to begin a downfall soon. video games have been somewhat unrestricted, due to not being mainstream enough for the "FOX news"es of the world to care. because of that, video game creators have been free to make games that have whatever content they imagine in the game, whatever creative ideas they have. we've gotten the gritty realism of shooters, games that tell stories that not even hollywood would approach, innovation is constant and games keep getting better and better. but now games have become mainstream, and now they will be moderated to the point of making all of them mediocre at best (example: just about any movie you've seen in theaters the last few years). now we'll get ignorant news pieces followed by even more ignorant reactions. every store and company will be worried about what some soccer mom in nebraska will think of a game with a mature rating on it, regardless of the fact that it isn't intended for little jonny to begin with, due to the over exposure and easy news targets. studios will begin only making the same safe game constantly, with a different coat of paint, and we as a fanbase will suffer for it.
This is terrible news. Target is acting real scared. I haven't heard Fox's 'news' (loosely used) report pop up anywhere else but here. It hasn't hit the mainstream so why is Target over reacting?
Who says, "OMG, Target sells Mass Effect!?!?! I'm not going to buy my bathroom towels and home decor from there anymore!!!" That is plainly stupid.
Target has done a great service to gamers across the US. Smut content such as Mass Effect does not need to be sold to our children.
Also, Target has just begun early what most retailers will be doing in a couple of years. Which is pulling ALL XBOX 360 related content off the shelves.
Good job Target.
