Mass Effect 2 - Teaser Trailer

This is the teaser for Mass Effect 2.

[KingDizzi]

Really hope this comes to the PS3 so more people get to enjoy it, PC for me though.

[BRACHATTACK]

Coming to a ps3 near you ;)

[StayHigh]

It didnt say 360 only or anythin..lol..it will come to the PS3 and NO OONE should be suprise because its EA..

[Hydrolex]

then Mass Effect 2 doesnt matter if it's coming or not

[chaosatom]

so they have plenty of opportunity to port it to ps3.

But If they do port it, I want them to do it right. EA can port it if they want to since they are now good with ps3 architecture.

[Neoraf]

Mass Effect is my BGOAT. Period.

BGOAT = Best Game Of All Time.

Mature.
Adult.
Racial issues.
Religious issues.
Political.
Sci-Fi.
Human Relations.
Moral choices.

Best scenario in a game.
Strong dialogues.

I can't wait for MASS EFFECT 2.
Bioware, I admire you.

[locos85]

I would love to play this on my PS3 but since I finished the first game on my 360, I will continue my story on the 360

[GUNS N SWORDS]

.........since when was ME2 announced for ps3?

someone needs to correct that, the trailer it's self doesn't even say that it's going multiplat.

anyways, what IS interesting is that trailer it's self confirms the whole fvcking cast from the original ME in plain view.

so basically i was right from the start. ME1 needs, no, MUST be ported to ps3 in order to understand the the full story. if not then that's a 60 hrs worth of story your missing out on.

i also heard recently in one of G4's newest pod casts that ME2 will have the function to port YOUR custom character from the original ME, if this rumor is true (which the trailer it's self is depicting, they didn't put "JOHN" or "JANE shepard" it just says "shepard" smart huh :) then that will also mean that you will need the original ME. (to take advantage of that feature)

[NaiNaiNai]

the fact you can port your character has been know since ME 1 came out, they announced its going to be like 3 or so games. they also you don't need a character to play ME2, since they do a cut over the whole story in 1. so it could go the the ps3, but the chances of it are as much as Final fantasy 7 going to the 360, so there is still a good chance it can.
-nai-

[Sarcasm]

Are some people really that blind to see if this was an Xbox360 exclusive you would see MS and "Xbox Live" plastered all over the place?

[NaiNaiNai]

dead or alive 4 it still doesn't have 360 only logo.

[Aquanox]

Superb Teaser.

I see a lot of Sony boys dying for this game... and one can't blame them =)

[AsswipewithyourFlag]

Never got into the first one but this game looks mighty sweet

[KingDizzi]

Oh snap looks like someone will not be making a return to the game :O

[Dark_Vendetta]

wtf? No they can't kill shepard! What's wrong with you Bioware? Tell me it's not true.
Damn why 2010? I'm already hyped

[kwicksandz]

i dont care if shepard dies but wrex was my main ally pretty much the whole game, and garrus those 2 need to come back. and maybe they could make gas mask girl useful this time round.

[Dark_Vendetta]

Well I killed Wrex although I liked him. Looks like Shepard will die in the new DLC :'(

[JustinSaneV2]

Shepard KIA!? WTF!?

:(

*edit*

Wait a minute...
Was Shepard a Geth!?

[TheHater]

no, he is Human dude. You didn't play Mass Effect?

edit: @Cajun Chicken
Don't jump to conclusion. When I first played God of War and Kratos is jumping off the cliff, I thought he was going to die. Look what happen

[Cajun Chicken]

Whoa. I haven't even got all the way though the first game and now I know he's going to die?!?

Edit: True.

[hay]

My Shepard was hot looking, handsome, bad-ass mofo who didn't break a sweat eradicating hordes of geth on hardcore, with level high enough to break any synthetic bare-handedly in half as a part of a training to repeat that on Insane. He can't die.

Can't wait for sequel. Still wearing proudly my N7 crew t-shirt.

[JustinSaneV2]

@ #2:

Did you not even watch the video? The Geth at the end was dressed in Shepard's armor.

[kwicksandz]

i thought it was scanning his body not wearing his armour.

[jkhan]

no mention of platform. hhmmm... I guess we will find out at gdc09.

[TheHater]

When is GDC?

[lord_of_balrogs]

Well obviously 360 and PC.

[PirateThom]

EA are publishing.

Platforms will include, PS3, 360, PC, Wii, PS2, DS, PSP and iPhone.

[meepmoopmeep]

lol, Thom

no kidding, eh?

[jkhan]

@4.1
GDC09 is March 23-27 2009.
@4.2
Damn boy, why are you so insecure? Every time I see your comment its either about bashing the PS3 or praising the beauty of 360?
You do realize you take your gaming a bit too seriously?

[Why dis]

"Damn boy, why are you so insecure?"

So says the loyal fan of Sony so desperate that this game comes to PS3 you guys make wild claims spreading misinformation and suggestive fiction because you think this will hurt Sony.

I don't think you guys want this game but you don't wan't Sony to be out of the spotlight either.

"Damn boy, why are you so insecure?"

^^^ LOL he's not the one running around in every Mass Effect room saying its coming to X console when there has been no mention of it.

"insecure"

Where is the dam PC channel? lol a PS3 channel but no PC channel LMAO.

The 360 version is going to release and after that the PC version.

THIS IS THE ONLY INFO GIVEN:

"I believe we'll be Xbox 360 exclusive for at least a short period of time," Atwood told CVG. "We've got a really great PC fan base, we think it's really important to deliver the PC experience as quickly as possible," he continued in a VideoGamer interview.

The first entry in BioWare's planned Mass Effect trilogy arrived on Xbox 360 last fall, with a PC version, co-developed by Demiurge, due out May 6. Many had speculated that, following EA's acquisition of BioWare and the publishing rights for Mass Effect, the sequel would release simultaneously on multiple platforms.

BioWare has yet to specify a release window for Mass Effect 2."
http://www.shacknews.com/on...

Notice the multi platform statement was in reference to not just the 360 version but they want to make a PC version just a few weeks ago EA announced that ME2 was multi platform for sure(360/PC) which started the rumors.

[jkhan]

@4.6
xbox gamertag: jehanzebkhan, psn id: jehanzeb. Go check it out. I own both consoles & I played MassEffect on 360 and kids like you are giving gaming a bad name.

[Why dis]

To tell you the truth I think MSFT is using this suspense to hype the game and then they will hype/boast it during an upcoming game show.

[1ikedamaster]

Well said Why Dis.

At the same time, if Why Dis was able to purchase PS3 for it's exclusives why can't you all in the PS3 side purchase a 360 if ME2 is 360/PC exclusive? Goes to prove the double-standard.

[lord_of_balrogs]

Same here, I plan to purchase the PS3 so I can get KZ2, GOW3, and MGS4. I really hate that double standard.

[Why dis]

I own PS3 but if it does come to PS3 I'll get the 360 version and not some BS EA port of the EU3 engine.

[lord_of_balrogs]

Wow, this is a pleasant suprise, I wasn't expecting any new info this early.

But KIA? No it can't be.

This is gonna be one of the 360's best exclusives when it releases.

[Cajun Chicken]

This is gonna be one of the 360's best exclusives when it releases...IF it turns out to be an 360 exclusive.

[pippoppow]

Will most likely appear at the very least on the PC also. Gotta love diehard 360 fans that tout a multiplatform game as exclusive.

[lord_of_balrogs]

I meant console exclusive as in not on any other consoles such as the PS3.

[PirateThom]

Want.... want really badly right now. :(

[Foxgod]

Yup, i can imagine you do.

[PirateThom]

I have a 360, you are aware of this, aren't you?

[Foxgod]

no, i am not aware of that, you sound like a ps3 fanboy in almost all of your comments.

[Bnet343]

Doesn't matter if you have one or not, you are pretty annoying and show how biased you are in almost every comment you make.

[Omega4]

Well at least he does try and be neutral, even if it is a poor attempt

[PirateThom]

Epic win on my part then.

Funny how "MGS4 to 360" is acceptable, but people get a little bit upset at "Mass Effect to PS3".

I don't even think it's coming to PS3, I should point out, but damn if some 360 trolls don't deserve a little payback.

[DarK-SilV]

Omega4 and Foxgod Both of you should look at himself before you speak
At least PirateThom most of the time is neutral and he is not a fan boy like you two

[Bnet343]

No one said "MGS4 to 360" is acceptable. That doesn't mean you have to stoop to a fanboy level and act like them.

@Omega4, couldn't have said that better myself.

[PirateThom]

Y'all take the internet too seriously.

Trust me, if I wanted to troll properly and didn't just do it to point out double standards, I'd use an alt account like numerous other users on here. I know I troll, but 9/10 times it's against someone who was trolling already. The other time is for my personal amusement.

I will apologise though, because, frankly, it's just a game and I'm not particularly that worried. I'll get to play it regardless of platform, the first game was the reason I bought a 360 in the first place and I've already said, because of the saved data, that's where I'd buy the sequel. Frankly, platforms need their exclusives, and to me, this is one of them.

Just stick me on ignore if I'm annoying you, it's all good.

[Ldubbz]

FIGHT! Thom is really not that bad. I sure as hell dont agree with some stuff he sez, but I do respect it, some of the time...lol.

But he's def not a troll.

[MicroSony4Life]

If you follow Pirate Thom comment history he is always bashing the 360 and Microsoft.

I dont care if you own a 360, your still part of the Sony Defence Force, In a few minutes you will part of his squad (GWAVE,Morgan,Graphic Whore,Power of Green and Obama)start bashing the sh! out of the 360.

[Omega4]

Didnt see this coming......

I hope they improve that no. 2 on the logo before release cause that looks whack

Funny how its on the PS3 channel and not even on the PC, fanboys keep on dreaming lol

[KingDizzi]

It was approved so quickly I had no time to change that. Ah well this is EA after all, it will come to PS3.

[aggh im on fire]

This and Alan Wake news in one day.. think im gonna explode. I thought the first Mass Effect was great. One of my favorite games this gen, really looking forward to this.

[Foxgod]

This game is gonna be so awesome, my pc will easily run this, but i prefer to play it on my 360.
Btw, this does not belong in the ps3 section until it is announced as a ps3 game.

[PirateThom]

It hasn't been announced as PC or 360 either.

[Foxgod]

Yes it has, the first one was on the pc and 360, so its obvious this one will be on the pc and 360.

Not so obvious that it will be on the ps3, as the first one wasnt either.

In before but EA, cause its still a bioware game.
So dont hold your breath, get a 360 instead if you want to play it so badly.

[Omega4]

Actually EA did confirm it for the 360 and PC

http://news.teamxbox.com/xb...

There was even a story about it on n4g, someone obviously got selective memory, i wonder why....

[PirateThom]

That?

Where EA confirmed it as "multiplatform"?

Cool story, bro.

[Foxgod]

Actually, your desperation makes you look poor again tommyboy, as always, that article confirmed a ps3 version will not happen.

If you actually click the link, and read its contents, youl see it says, 360 and pc confirmed, not ps3.
Therefore this topic should not be in the ps3 section.

[Tony P]

@PirateThom: You don't know it's coming to PC and 360? This was reported almost a full year ago.

"We haven't announced plans for timing on Mass Effect 2, period, so at this point we're not really ready to talk about it, but because we've got a really great PC fan base we think it's really important to deliver the PC experience as quickly as possible. Look for more news on that soon" -Senior Manager, Matt Attwood on behalf of Bioware

http://www.n4g.com/News-273...

"EA has refused to specify what company CEO John Riccitiello meant when he said that Mass Effect 2 was a "multi-format" title on Tuesday, yet again skirting heavy rumour that the sequel is heading to PS3."

http://www.n4g.com/industry...

"The rumor recently resurfaced briefly when EA execs indicated that Mass Effect 2 would be released multiplatform. The word "multiplatform" could mean many things; it could mean PS3/X360/PC or just Xbox 360/PC. The rumor was spurred even further when Edge reached out to EA and was told that they could not go into further details of what was meant by "multiplatform." It is a bit odd as to why EA would go to such lengths to hide the intended platforms."

"Actually, your desperation makes you look poor again tommyboy, as always, that article confirmed a ps3 version will not happen."

http://news.teamxbox.com/xb... Are you talking about this article please read it again Fox

"EA PR is not confirming Mass Effect 2 for PS3, only for Xbox 360 and PC-- the original platforms of the first game."

By what it says here he says he's not confirming it which in terms means "I cant confirm it but doesnt mean it's not happening " Guess what!

A. it is coming to PS3 and we cant say because of this fat cheque we received from M$. or
B. it is coming to the PS3 but will be a timed exclusive

[MicroSony4Life]

to belive that this wont come out on the 360.

WTF is there some type of Fanboy virus going around.

[frayer]

YES! OMG! I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS GAME..... on PS3.

[TheColbertinator]

Mass Effect FTW

[floppyfeet]

I mean fuk , you retards hyped lair to be the second coming of christ and actually defended the game after it had been reviewed...

oh , lets not forget about heavenly short

And what about that godly halo killer haze?

Your whole faction is made up of upset gamers that will take ANYTHING they get as the greatest thing ever to happen to them.

Such as killzone , when the hell did playstation fans become FPS fans?

really , it all doesnt make sense lol

[Bill Gates]

.

[Kleptic]

floppyfeet...i'll bite...

i mean, how can a PS3 fan even compare to a 360 fanatic...two worlds set the world on fire, and 360 fans never even mentioned it...it came out of no where...and DESTROYED competition...

Too Human?...11 years in the making...absolutely rocked...Silicon Knights did the impossible...they took UE3, couldn't figure out how to use it, made a lawsuit because of it, got their teeth kicked in by Epic, made their own horrible looking 'version' of the engine, and released it to eager 360 fans...whom flipped out on how great it was...never before have I seen such unanimous critical reception from gaming media, matched with system owners saying how its the greatest achievement in gaming...its even better that 360 idiots whine about killzone 2 taking 4 years...'feck, 4 years and a game that looks and plays like killzone 2 is the result?...why not spend 10 and make too human?'...

lets not discredit the endless supply of jrpg's from MS and SE...shat 500p (read: 900x500 !?) Star Ocean IV?..mediocre reviews and the blatant fact that a Wii could render it?...Ps3 fans simply can't compete with that...Lost Odyssey, blue dragon, and The Last Remnant?...I would KILL for a mid 70 meta JRPG dude...seriously...

and Mass Effect...I am so jealous as a PS3 owner that I didn't get Mass Effect the first time around...it was further exploited when i saw a 360 running (read: attempting to) it...I would love to see my beloved 360 spiraling out of control trying to force the tried and true UE3 not to turn it into a slide projector...

you can spin either console into something that would fit your pathetic agenda you retard...I just did it without even thinking about it...the only thing that has to apply to these types of comments...you HAVE to have a pathetic agenda to get it to work...you lose, sir...

[Mikerra17]

u have been trolling these pages wild wildfire spreading your fanboyism when at the time there was no point.

what is you problem?

btw kleptic just served you on an empty platter

[frayer]

Mass Effect 2 confirmed for 2010. Only flops this year bots.

[Foxgod]

halo odst, splinter cell conviction, star ocean, halo wars, forza 3, Rare game (killer instinct), alan wake, nuff said.

[Queers of War]

halo wars and star ocean 4 were already confirmed to be flops. the other titles don't look promising either. nuff said.

[Foxgod]

Halo wars toppled the demo downloads of KZ2, and received nothing but praise for its innovative control scheme.

Star ocean sold just as much in japan on the first day as wkc and wkc has a 3 times larger install base.

Translation, upcoming successes, nuff said.

[geda]

foxgod, can i come in your fantasy world for a while? sounds pretty fun

[Foxgod]

My fantasy world is indeed fantastic, i draw a lot, and put a lot of my fantasy's on paper.

However i do none of this stuff on N4g, i stated facts that came from articles posted on n4g.

[Queers of War]

star ocean 4....130k copies
WKC....200k + copies

do you not know how to f*cking count?

and by praising, do you mean giving flop scores? 6/10....7/10, the list goes on LMAO

your butthurt denial, your pitiful loyalty to a shat company like M$. nuff said

[Traveler]

Since when is it a FACT that Splinter Cell Conviction is coming out this year, or that it will even remain exclusive?

I must have missed that fact, despite looking forward to Splinter Cell Conviction.

Based on what has been announced and confirmed for this year, I find the PS3's lineup quite superior to the 360's lineup.

[Foxgod]

Splinter cell is currently slated for june.

and @ queens of war
WKC did 132k first day sales
Star ocean 4 did 131 K first day sales.

I would check your sources before you start claiming if someone can count or not.

[Agent VX]

Mass Effect was easily one of the best games in the last few years for myself. Can't wait until ME2 comes out.

[cow moolester]

He didn't die. Your data carries over from the last game. I'd say his death was staged so he could operate better as a spectre. It mentions Kai and Ashley so I'm sure it checks to see which you let die in ME1 so it knows which character to be alive in ME2. Wrex is alive no matter what

[Foxgod]

its a she in my save file :)
Shes a blonde and got a heart of ice.

[Charlie2688]

SWEET :D

[criticalkare]

man I wonder what they stored for us at GDC 09.... I hope it releases this year...

[Chubear]

PS3 copy of ME1 for Christmas period then ME2 next year multiplat with possibility of 3month time exclusive to MS or exclusive DLC... I'm leaning more to the latter.

[cronaldo7]

Sick.

[N4PS3G]

Shepard R.I.P!

can't frikin wait !

[TheColbertinator]

You guys have so much hate.

Carry on :D

[PirateThom]

This site would be pretty boring without large amounts of hate.

Reasoned debate?

Nah, that's never happened on here.

[Traveler]

Unfortunately hate breeds more hate and so it goes on and on and on...

[m23]

Finally, I've been waiting for this game. I never really liked rpgs until I played Mass Effect I can't wait for the release.

[Cheeky Gamer]

Ah, I'm so excited! Hopefully Dragon Age: Origins keeps me satisfied until then. I can't wait to continue the assault with my Bruce Willis lookalike character. ;)

On a side note, what's the point of this going to the PS3? From a gamer's point of view, it'd be stupid. The story is rather complicated as it is and PS3 gamers are going to be even more confused jumping straight into the sequel without having played the first one.

They should keep Mass Effect exclusive to the 360 and PC, just like MGS4 should stay solely on the PS3.

[1ikedamaster]

Dragon Age: Origins is slated to release Dec.09, they practically will come out one after the other. Looking forward to Origins as well. For fans: PC Gamer wrote about it in length on their recent magazine.

[RedVsBlue]

I highly doubt the main guy is dead. Think of the first Starship Troopers movie when they announced in public that Rico was KIA & he wasn't

[Ko_Uraki]

Halo Wars is an excellent game. The droids have only the Gamespot's review on their side...but they don't say that Gamespot havent't reviewed Killzone 2, so If I were them I would wait.

There is still the hope for two great news:

1) KZ2 reviewed badly by Gamespot.
2) Halo Wars that outsells KZ2 in March NPD.

The second option is quite a lock.

[Traveler]

Why would that be good news?....oh wait, I get it...you're not a gamer, you're just a fanboy. Nevermind, carry on.

As if one bad review from Gamespot would undo all the rave reviews Killzone 2 has already received.

And who cares how many copies a game sells? If we were to judge quality by the units sold, we would have to say the Wii is the best console of all time and Wii Fit blows basically every other game this generation out of the water. Fortunately, most gamers don't base their judgment of a game on such things as how many copies it sold.

[narked]

biowareeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee youuuuu areeeee mind fking ussssssssss

[1ikedamaster]

LOL I agree.

[swiftshot93]

.

[Traveler]

Mass Effect is easily one of the best games on the 360 and I can't wait for the sequel. I only hope it runs better this time. The first one was plagued with screen tearing, texture pop-in and slow down. I hope they get that sorted out for the sequel.

I think there are about equal chances of this game remaining exclusive to the 360 and PC as it does to going to the PS3 as well. Who knows? All I know is that it is a good game and the more people that get to play it the better.

[Chubear]

if this was a PS3 exclusive title the entire gaming media and 360 fanbase would dogg it to kingdom come, CRAZY. Anyways, this is the one true game I've salivated to get my hands on from the 360 library. From the initial intro of the game with ME1 it looked like a PS game when it was announced.

I was going to have a go on a friend's 360 but when I read EA had bought Bioware I held off knowing it'd be coming on the PS3 soon enough. The game looks like they've increase the graphical detail, nice.

Never have I felt so happy to see an EA logo on a game =D

[aspergersyndrome]

I love Mass Effect 2!

I'm sure Shepard isn't dead. Probably went underground to smash Cerberus from the inside out.

[HungPHAT]

I own both systems , so either or I'm playing it reguradless , remember a true Gamer OWNS all systems , I'm for the games not the systems it's on

[pippoppow]

1- Not everyone can afford to buy all systems
2- Many people do not have as much time to play video games
3- There are other hobbies that are as liked which hampers game time

[PtRoLLFacE]

bioware is going to teach epic games how to make better looking games using the UE3 lol

[Cheeky Gamer]

Riiiiight. 'Cos Gears of War 2 was ugly, wasn't it? /Facepalm

[Socomer 1979]

I was a spectre with absolutly no help from any squad combo.
2010?
that's too long to even care about right now.
I can already hear the reports of how buggy the game is.
Just knowing that bioware will still be making a small DVD sequel in 2010
is saddening.
unless ps3 gets both game 1 & 2 on the same disc.
Ps3 should be at 32 million users by then.

[00]

can't come soon enough.

[Superted2007]

ZOMG! ZOMG! ZOMG!
:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

THIS IS THE BEST NEWS EVER!!!!!

I want it...now!

[midgetsanx]

I always wanted to try this game but never got to it. It looks pretty awesome though.

[TrevorPhillips]

was that it mass effect wasent that great waiting for it for 3 years to much framerate issues not enough planets all look like the bad so dont think mass effect 2 will be good unless it comes out for ps3 ill just wait for Elder Scrolls v

[Reibooi]

I can't wait to play the game. I don't tend to like Bioware RPG's or Western RPG's in general however I loved Mass Effect and I was shocked at how in depth it's universe was I was quite impressed.

Seeing as this is a EA game I would assume it will at least come to PS3 360 and PC and the only way that would not be the case is if MS gives EA a massive check because the first game was so good they would have to be given enough incentive as the game would most likely make more money going multi plat then it would solely on 360 and PC.

[JustinSaneV2]

If you let the web page sit idle for a while you can start moving it around with your mouse (in a 3-d'ish plane).

[00]

I wonder when those other classified videos will be released.

[Tykis]

AHHHHHHH! I F****King LOVE MASS EFFECT!! WHOOOO

[blodulv]

= best western RPG of this generation, period. Hopefully they can clean up some of the technical problems though from the first one like bad frame rate hiccups and texture loading.

Such a huge universe that Bioware can continue to explore and reveal. Publishers making RPG's should definately look more into using the branch out (good/evil) dialogue as it really lends to having you think more about your decisions, rather than just being able to choose all of the dialogue response ala Fallout 3.

[Brock Danger]

Mass Effect is, FOR ME AND BY NO MEANS AM I SAYING YOU MUST AGREE, the best game I've ever played. Ironically, I realized it when I was playing MGS4.

EDIT: I LOVE metal gear, it was just something about being thrown down such a specific tunnel that I craved the customization and free-form play of ME.

Was ME 1 flawed? Sure as hell. But a game that tackles so many design issues and comes off so damned well with so many of them completely distracts me from even contemplating the flaws in it. Great story, great character design, awesome dialogue trees, sick fighting engine (once you really figure out how to work it), and HANDS DOWN THE BEST MUSIC IN A GAME EVER.

In an unrelated twist, here's my progression of Shepards for the three times I played through it (what a great effing game):

Brock Shepard: All around good guy, with a clear sense of right and wrong that doesn't always agree with the counsel or his commanders.

Bruk Shepard: A pale-ass hot chick with full biotics and no remorse. Cut her away across the universe killing everything in her path, and f*cking over some just for fun.

John Shepard: A balding ex-engineer who is always in the wrong place at the wrong time. Based heavily on John McClane. Cracks jokes at every inopportune moment and has the battle cry of "aww, hell no."

[GiantEnemyCrab]

Oh, come on people stop wasting your breath trying to convince people that it is or isn't coming to the PS3. Who cares! This teaser trailer looks freakin awesome and if you have a 360 you are golden so don't worry about it.

Mass Effect 2!!!!! HELL YEAH!!! Day 1 purchase. EA don't fvck this up like %99 of your titles when you assimilate a company. Dragon Age looks like balls so I'm a bit worried about Bioware. However this teaser gave me the chills so thats a good sign.

[Ldubbz]

I honestly dont care whether or not people get this on PS3. Though if they do, I would hope they release the first one as well.

The reason I really like this game is the same as Halo...true trilogies that were set up that way from the onset. Thats why its hard to accept certain scores on Halo 2 & 3...if youre not a fan of the series, its kinda like reviewing Return of the Jedi or Return of the King (lol....irony) but you havent seen the first two or dont care about the story.

That being said, I love how this game will pick up where the first one left off, and the storyline will reflect that. Wrex died in my version (it was...sad), and I expect that to be the case when I boot up ME 2. Without that facet, to me its somewhat incomplete, especially if you dont play thru the first, because there is much to learn.

EDIT: and I wouldnt worry about EA on this: Bioware was working on this before that buyout. Which is also why I think it probably wont come to the PS3; MS published the first game, on 360 AND PC (those are both MS platforms for the uninitiated). I would seriously doubt that MS doesnt have an exclusivity clause due to that.

[Brock Danger]

Yea, the more people that get to play this game, the better. It's too damned amazing to not be on every platform (excluding the Wii, not a hater just a realist).

To do that, they definitely have to crank out the first one on PS3, otherwise that would kind of suck for Sony fans to come in with no idea of the universe or the game. Now let me take off my obvious comment helmet.

Yeh since 360 gamers are being told to keep their game saves too, then it sounds like they'll be having a 1up over the PS3 users. I'm sensing a port of the first game to PS3, and my spidey senses reckon they'll be releasing a boxset with both games maybe. Probably just a thought.

Wait? Killed in action? All the characters are dead? lol is that what I read? I'm confused!! But excited!!

Well that's definitely a 'teaser'! Makes me want it more!

Since I played ME1 on the 360, and we are being told to keep our game saves, I'll be buying on the 360, even though I'd love to try it on the PS3.

Plus I don't know why but I hate that thumbnail image they used of Shepherd! Something about it, I duno.

The organization played a very minor role in the first game and a major role in the second book. Cerberus is basically a ruthless pro-human group that will use any means to push humans above the other alien species. They are very secretive and have agents everywhere.

I wonder what role they will play in ME2. It looks like it might be big since the Cerberus logo is right next to the video.
