In Mass Effect 3, an ancient alien race known only as Reapers, has launched an all-out invasion of the galaxy, leaving nothing but a trail of destruction in their wake. Earth has been taken, the galaxy is on the verge of total annihilation, and you are the only one who can stop them. The price of failure is extinction. You, as Commander Shepard, must lead the counter assault to take it back. Only you can determine how events will play out, which planets you will save from annihilation and which alliances you will form or abandon as you rally the forces of the galaxy to eliminate the Reaper threat once and for all.
Battle with your comrades or even your own friends in this all-out galactic war to take Earth back. With co-op online multiplayer missions new to the Mass Effect universe , you can choose from a variety of classes and races, form an elite Special Forces squad, and combine weapons, powers and abilities to devastating effect as you all fight together to liberate key territories from enemy control in this third entry of the epic intergalactic RPG franchise.

That response will come this summer with the Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut, BioWare just announced, a DLC pack that will bring additional cinematic sequences and epilogue scenes intended to add clarity and insight. The studio also announced it will wisely avoid a fresh round of fan outrage by making the ME3 Extended Cut free. Read More »
You may be hopping mad about the end of Mass Effect 3, but seriously? To say that EA is more of a cancer on American society than the likes of AT&T;, Bank of America, Comcast, Walmart, and Ticketmaster is a major insult to all the hard work those companies have done to assist in warrentless wiretapping, home foreclosures, monopolistic price-gouging, taking out life insurance policies on employees to profit from tragedy, price fixing, and more. Yet after a frankly ridiculous display of internet rage, The Consumerist had no choice but to name Electronic Arts the Worst Company in America in its annual tournament poll. Read More »
