Fanswag: win a custom Mass Effect Xbox 360 Elite [update]

Mar 18th 2008 11:09AM (Joystiq Xbox)
I never re-play single player games but Mass Effect has me on my 4th play-through. I'm a huge fan! Besides that though, my 360 is getting louder and louder, the disc spin noise is driving me insane. Before i go completely nuts and do something drastic, it would be great to get a new one that wasn't so loud.

Gears of War still buggy, complain 'Chainsaw' event attendees

On the frame rate issue I mentioned, it was during the single player demo. towards the end of it, there was very noticable frame rate drops. It coudl be because it's not final code, maybe the disc had a bad spot in it maybe there's a problem, i can't answer that. I can tell you that there was no flame rate issues in multiplayer at all, it ran fine. I watched it for 90 minutes on the big screen waiting for my turn to play, not once did i see frame rates drop.

Since i wrote one of the reviews, i thought I needed to comment. The Joystiq spins it as if I didn't like the game. I'm still buying the game and i'm still pumped about it. Visually the game is stunning and runs smooth in multiplayer.

The controls will probably work fine once you've had some time to use them. I got to play for 20 minutes, there were a lot of people and you only got to play 1 game of 2 or 3 rounds depending on if you won 2 in a row or split wins and played a tie break. That amount of time wasn't sufficient to get the controls down. But i in no way think the controls aren't managable, there's just more to deal with than there was in say Ghost Recon AW which is also a 3rd person strategic shooter.

I don't feel like the game is pickup and play. If your buddy comes over and jacks in as player 2 and has never played before, he's not going to be very useful to you until he's probably played an hour or so on the game.

There are many aspects to the game that are awesome. It's very strategic, you will need to work as a team to be successful. People looking for a run and gun game probably should look elsewhere.
