Mass Effect 3 Revealed

Bioware announced yesterday that their final installment in the Mass Effect series is due out for the holiday season in 2011 and gave a teaser trailer at the Video Game Awards.

The series centers on Commander Shepard who is tasked with saving the galaxy from a threat of ancient mechanical super beings known as the Reapers. The games were groundbreaking with the ability to choose Paragon or Renegade actions (good and bad) and your story will shape itself around your choices. Teamates lived or died by your choices and this allowed for extreme flexibility in the storyline. Additionally, the game featured a beautifully crafted story, excellent voice acting and well rendered environments. The games are immense in scope and take a long time to complete if you attempt the side quests.

Mass Effect 3 centers on Earth and Commander Shepard must lead the final defense on his home planet. There have also been hints that Bioware may be incorporating a new multiplayer function into the game to give the players even more immersion.

No doubt for the Holidays 2011 this will be the game to get!
