A few months and lots of games shows after our Army of Two GSD, we are finally back to talk a bit about Mass Effect, the massive Space-Opera from Bioware. A GSD a tad longer than usual, 15 minutes so HD fans better make sure their modems are up to the task, and rich in discussions about the beginning of the game that Pipo and I had the chance to try freely. We also talk about the character creation, the fight system and a few more things. Enjoy!
