GOTY!!

Mass Effect is the game I have been looking forward to more than any other since the 2006 E3!!!

Ever since the 2006 E3, the three games that dominated all of the Awards at trade shows were Gears of War, Bioshock, and...Mass Effect!

Mass Effect has already been reviewed by Game Informer, and it received a rating of 9.75 out of 10 from both of the people who reviewed the game. Obviously, Mass Effect is as close to perfect as you can get!



I particulary love the way Game Informer describes the Sound of Mass Effect...they say that it has:

"One of the most memorable and unique soundtracks in gaming. It's inspired by 80's sci-fi, yet sounds like nothing you've heard before. The game also features an amazing ensemble of voice actors."

That is exactly what I've been trying to say all along...Mass Effect creates a 100% perfect sci-fi atmosphere for a game!



*** I have to say, the Collector's Edition of Mass Effect is one of the best ones I have ever seen. I thought it was cool that PDZ came with a Collector's Edition with just one Custom Theme of four screens...but Mass Effect comes with SIXTEEN Custom Themes screens for the Xbox 360 Dashboard!

And I can GUARANTEE you that I would have bought the Mass Effect soundtrack, just like Halo and PDZ...I think Mass Effect is my favorite of all!

I am FIRED UP and EXCITED for Mass Effect!!!

I saved limited edition Halo 3 Mountain Dew Gaming Fuel for the release of Mass Effect!!!

i thought this was a great collector's edition as well. i could careless for those demos but the fiction and soundtrack and other stuff seems supreme. I can't wait for it!

wish i could get the special edition, but i can't wait!!

must play it on the day it comes out!!

Best game on 360!
