@tetracycloide:
Wow, I applaud your patience. Hell, I'm having enough of a time trying not to buy Mass Effect today as I still have Assassin's Creed waiting for me. At least by waiting I can take advantage of sales or coupons later on. The downside is lagging in the discussions of said games with friends. (heh, I get enough of that just by lagging a day or two in Kotaku threads.) At least there'll be a PC community for you.

@kNZA: i am acutely aware of the fact that it will be, at a minimum, a wait of 4 months (that was the wait on KotOR) and probably will last until roughly when mass effect 2 hits for the 360. i'm also not going to stop talking about how awesome this title will be on the PC until it is out at which point i will switch from the future tense to the present tense when discussing said awesomeness.

@tetracycloide:

You realize it will be at least a year's wait, don't you?

@kyosen:

no you still can, it's just very clunky. The main thing everyone should focus on here is the story. Because its incredible. So is the interactions with everyone. Plus the soundtrack is amazing and fits the mood for all the happens. I don't even know how to describe it fully. It's like an 80's sci-fi nerds dream come true.

Didn't really think of this until my roomate watched the GT review, but I guess they did away with the tactical mode where you could place your squad members where you wanted on the battle field.. Kind of a shame since that seemed like a really cool mechanic.

"While some of you may be excited to play Mass Effect, others of you will be too poor or not own Xbox 360s."

Or foreign. Some of us are foreign devils who bleed pure communorrist red.

@beeporama: I agree. It's not the best book ever written by any means but it was fun, engaging, and generally worth the price of admission.

I really thought this time we were going to get through a Mass Effect thread without tetracycloide mentioning the PC release. Ahh, well. Maybe next time?

@Nexus6: Sure it's original, but so would be a soundtrack of bicycles running over cats. Doesn't mean I want to listen to it. If someone took the soundtrack off that movie, I think I would actually enjoy it. As it stands, kills the movie for me. completely and utterly.

I hope they hire Biosphere to work on the next 2 sequels. He's seriously one of the best electronic artists of all time. [www.biosphere.no]

@Kuraudo: I've got to disagree; I really enjoyed the Mass Effect book. It *is* pulpy sci fi to the point of cliche, and there are a couple of typos an editor should have picked up, but it was a breezy read and an exciting story. Heck, I'm reading it a second time now to prep for the game.

@perrinbar: Thats blasphemy ! Vangelis's Blade Runner soundtrack has to be in the top 5 of all time in terms of originality and aural atmosphere.

@tetracycloide: The book does a good job of informing the reader of the Mass Effect universe's history, but it's cliched and badly written and won't satiate in any other way.

I've never been one to buy a soundtrack from a game, though I suppose I'll make up my mind after hearing it.

@tetracycloide:

You can listen to the music while you read, I guess. Just be flexible enough to switch tracks rapidly as the mood changes between scenes. :P

If you, like myself, didn't enjoy the soundtrack to Blade Runner, don't buy it. Very similar. Great game still, just a word of warning.

not having a PC release yet is actually driving me to consider buying the book to satiate my mass effect lust. i can't imagine buying a soundtrack for a title i haven't yet played though.
