Operation: Heartbreaker brings the Banshees in Mass Effect 3 this weekend
We have two problems with this weekend's special multiplayer event for Mass Effect 3. First, players have to cope with an abundance of Banshees, the game's most hated villain that doesn't have the last name "Shields." The individual goal this weekend is to earn at least 20,000 points from killing ...

Mass Effect 3's 'Operation: Ballistic' weekend goes for the gold

Mass Effect 3 initiates Operation: Detonator this weekend
Commander Shepard is relaxing on a beach somewhere with a Mai Tai and a copy of I Am Not Spock, but you poor saps are still out in the deep recesses of space, fighting the good fight against gross bugs and robots. Someday, dear marines. Someday. Until the lot of you are finally loosed from the ...
