Apparently Casey Hudson is leading a Mass Effect march on the San Diego ComicCon, where everyone will be armed with an omni-blade. And at the end of it he will 'reveal something significant'. Not significantly good, note. masseffect.bioware.com/july23/Thoughts?

Meh. Only for those who live around there or can travel. I'll wait for the instant replay.

Meh. Only for those who live around there or can travel. And for those willing to be caught dead at a rally for a bloody computer game.

I moderate a fanfiction website about a computer game, so I cannot comment. ;D

Well even geeks have standards. Well some of us do. But if you get folks dressing up in character for comic cons this is not much of a further step really.
Not my cup of tea, but I can see some folks wanting it. Good PR for BiowEAr, (mostly) free advertising. Some people getting to sweat their balls off in the hot sun. There is a fair bit of win here if you can stand being recognized at this thing.

San Diego? Yeah it's gonna be terrible down there. The heat's been crazy and it's always worse down south. Good thing they're just marchin' around the corner there.
I'm gonna throw out a guess and say they're going to announce a new Mass Effect game of some sort. =O

Australia get neglected here too, like a freckled sun-tanned, red-headed, middle child.

I bet that announcement has more to do with the ME movie in the works, unfortunately.
"Yeah, we got Michael Bay to direct! And Uwe Boll's doing the script! Megan Fox is gonna star in it too!"
At which point, we will likely all do something to cause a massive hangover in shame.

I don't think anybody here really *wants* the movie, mostly because the odds of it sucking like a "Transformers" flick is almost a given.

I don't think anybody here really *wants* the movie, mostly because the odds of it sucking like a "Transformers" flick is almost a given. Even if it doesn't suck it's still gonna piss people off. A paragon Shepard in the movie would piss off all the players who think he should be a badass scowling renegade. A renegade Shepard would piss off the paragon crowd. A Paragade Shepard would piss both sides off. A male Shepard would piss off the Femshep crowd. A female Shepard would piss off the Male Shep crowd. That leaves the likelyhood of a transgendered Shepard with split personality disorder voiced by both Mark Meer and Jennifer Hale simultaneously. And a back to the Future storyline allowing both endings to play out. May God have mercy on us all.
