Mass Effect 2: Welcome to Omega (GamePro Preview)

GamePro writes:
"Our recent demo with Mass Effect 2 definitely proved that the planetary colony Omega is not a safe place for humans. Before we even got our hands on the controllers during a recent demo at the EA headquarters in Redwood City, CA, Commander Shepard was dead. It wasn't the Reapers, the shadowy beings that continue to threaten the Milky Way. It wasn't even Legion, the mysterious new Geth assassin who debuted in the very first Mass Effect 2 trailer. Of all things, it was nothing more than a poisoned cocktail drink that killed our hero.

"Yeah, that kind of thing can happen," quipped our Bioware representative as he reloaded the game. Batarians, the main antagonists of the iPod Touch/iPhone title Mass Effect Galaxy and one of the less trustworthy races of Mass Effect, still have a track record of hating humans (who are still not overwhelmingly popular in this galaxy) and Bioware doesn't want you to forget small details like that. After all, if you were a famous human among an alien species that hated your entire race, would you take a drink from one of these four-eyed thugs?"
