Mass Effect News Thread

I read this in Jar Jar's voice.

Oooh yeass! The MEA soundtrack is just so good.

It is. For me at least, effin amazing.

It's fun to try and spot as many popular video game and movie characters as possible.

It's gone :'(

EVERY video game pop culture icon is in the Ready Player One trailer (though I have to admit, I couldn't find any Mass Effect characters at all, and I single framed a lot of it):



They must have had a whole department of 20+ people getting licensing agreements and releases signed.

Of course my first thought was this was more YouTube idiocy, auto-flagging every song in there for copyright infringement.

Unfortunately that would require another patch I don't see that happening. Especially as they said they're not doing anymore

Will there be further MP updates? If so, for how long?

DiscoBabaloo After playing enough MEA MP to have APEX of over 50K, several of us want to know - how did you decide that bubbles would be the deadly weapon of choice for the Kett? Destined bubbles, Behemoth bubbles, Ascendant bubbles....#bubbles
