Dear oh dear. It sounds a bit dodgy. And yet I wish I could play it, just for this backstory it promises.

Ok first of all it sounds like Mass Effect is getting turned into a 16-bit universe Next I don't think it's a bad thing. Mass Effect could use more expansion since it only has 2 books and one game so far. Overall I don't mind it and I wish I could play it (I guess it's time to steal my nephew's iPod Touch) Next because I have too. Wild Speculation: OMG this Jacob guy is going to be part of your team or he will replace Shepard if Shepard is dead Or we'll just play as him at the begining of the game until Shepard comes back.

Yeah, we should as soon we see a new teletubies race >.< Also I'm starting to regret to turn the whole thing into a 16-bit in that last story from the look of this game. Me and my snarky mouth... next collaboration story I'll throw in a Katamari universe ball rolling instead On a serious note, I'll proberly wait till someone wrote a outline spoiler on Me wiki instead due to my boycotting in buying a iPhone. Expensive as hell and I hope Jacob is a party member not someone to replace shepard but someone post this up... such a cruel joke twitpic.com/47i30BTW, I'll put on a 50 credit chip bet this game will turn out like GTA Chinatown after I've recently watched the Zero Punctuation review.

The pictures there make it look exactly like Chinatown, come to think of it...
Why do you hate EA, Rascary Spice?

It's a gamers' grudge I suppose. EA used to have a bad rep when it comes to the treatment with their developers in the past (unpaid overtime, laid off employees at really, really short notice and screwing up the franchines when they stepped in.)
Not sure if they cleaned up their act nowdays, according to my friend but tbh, between EA, Square-Enix and Acti-blizzard, I have to say I hate Square Enix due to their take over on Eidios. Yes I hate Eidios for their shanagians with the Gamespot review and almost messing up the Hyper GotY awards but they made Deus Ex and Hitman, so I was a sad panda.
Also my personal pet peeve is Blizzard but that because of WoW and my anger management with them nerfing the BM tree for the hunter class as personal hate rant.
I'm still wary of EA so far but I hope they didn't screw up this around especially with BioWare...

That's complicated! You are all too modern for me. I'm still angry about the Sega CD.

That's ok, so the bottom line is: Everyone still think EA suck. That's all you need to know The rest are dramaholic mergers with game designers being a total retards so ignore it. As for the Sega CD thing... that kinda reminds me about my last Sega Genesis game "Heroes of the Dragonlance". God I've regreted wasting my $2 on it. Anyways, at least the Sega CD has "Snatcher", a really good game. You do worse by buying the Jaguar at the time. I've recalled one of the games has the SSV Normandy's evil twin sister being casted...

EA killed Oddworld, and they're gonna kill Bioware, the bastards.
I hope this is a scam, I despise spin-off rubbish like this...

EA has never been my most favorite of companies. From their treatment of DLC to the fifty Medal of Honor games they've made. I never quite thought it was a good thing that they bought Bioware-Pandemic Studios. I'm almost positive it was their harsh deadlines that made Mercenaries 2 less than super, and now Bioware's turning out an "epic" 2 hour long game? Since when has Bioware created anything that didn't take at least 10 hours?! The Sonic game doesn't count. xD (Even then, I think it made the cut off)
Seems like a stunt. Like turning KotOR into a side-scrolling brawler. It doesn't make any sense.
And, off topic, just wanted to mention the books, they need to get someone else other than Drew Karpyshyn to write those. I don't understand why they ask him to do those in his spare time, because they certainly suffer for it. Get someone who has all the time in the world. =O

I've only read the first so far but the plot was all over the place, Saren's character was way off and he had a villain named 'Skarr'. I actually enjoyed the book, but Karpyshyn can write so much better. It screamed 'rushed' throughout.

Meh if it's true I really don't mind this game. If it comes out on Xbox Arcade or somehow on the PC I'll play it but if now it's whatever. I'll just read the summary and be fine with it. It's only 2 hours long so your not missing that much. I think it looks cool though.
If there is a Teletubie race in it then we are going to Court!
Also I enjoyed Drew Karpyshyn's books but does anyone know if his books Darth Bane: Path of Destruction and Rule of Two are any good cause I'm thinking of buying them the next time I go to Borders.
