BioWare Already Cranking Out Mass Effect 3

[Orcus The Ultimate]

that boxart is indeed ugly, feo, moche, whatever.

 

[Distorted Stu]

This pleases Stu.

You know I only just realised the assault rifle looks exactly like the Normandy minus the "wings".

 

[zf6hellion]

I actually expected this after hearing the news that BioWare was already working on Dragon Age 2 before Origins was even released.

I'm intrested to see how ME3 will work out though as Shep is supposed to be able to be killed along with all of the party in the ending events of ME2

 

[ItsAChiaotzu]

I pray for a better box art.

Let's hope the boxart is better when 3 comes out.

OK, that's just fekkin scary

It's probably more to do with the fact that there was a news article stating that the box art was boring.

There was?

Talk about striking while the iron is hot...at least they are working on keping the francise going but isnt it still a little early. I mean second one not even released yet

 

[squid5580]

And yet they delayed a DA:O DLC pack twice now and with that delayed the badly needed console patch. Bioware really needs to have a chat with thier PR guys. This is reaching the point of stupidity.

 

[Xvito]

Oh my, another sequel, already?... I would never have guessed...

Spoiler

That was sarcasm, by the way.

Indeed there was.

God, can we quit talking about the damn box art? Do you play the box? NO you don't.

 

[DaBozz]

Umm bioware don't you have something else to be working on like you know KOTOR 3.

 

[ribonuge]

I think i'll get the collecters edition, just to block out that disturbing box art.

Umm bioware don't you have something else to be working on like you know KOTOR 3.

It's an MMORPG set in the KOTOR universe

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand VOILA! [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Old_Republic]

OT - I like this. It means the story will make sense at least. It's already been pointed out what happens if you take a break and your name is George Lucas...

[What with people caring about the box art?
I mean, really, does anyone spend hours, or even minutes, looking at the box art?
I spend that time, you know, playing the game.

But Tea if we don't remind developers what is, and isn't good box art we may have another one of these. [http://www.vgmuseum.com/scans/scans3/ghosthouse_card.jpg]

OT: Damn it... Can someone buy me a 360 so I can get back into these games?

Its not KOTOR though. Its just set there, theres no plot or story that I know of...its just another MMO. I want to see the Ebon hawk the plotholes from 2 filled in.

 

[BaldursBananaSoap]

Well, don't rush it like you did with KOTOR 2, or there will be hell.

EDIT: Wait, ME2 is out? Better get my ass on Steam.

 

[Doug]

I pray for a better box art.

Honestly, they should just do a white backround with a red logo, like they did with Dragon Age. And some detached krogan testicles as a centrepiece.

And a price tag on the testicles.

Anywho, not surprising, given ME2 was meant to be out last year and was pushed back purely because of the titanic waves of the Modern Warfare 2 release.

Not surprising that they'd start work on the next one whilst bored waiting, heh.

 

[Kollega]

So, they have shipped second part of the planned trilogy to stores and they're starting to work on the third part's storyline. What's so special or amazing here?

Well, except for the fact it desperately needs a better box art?

 

[Sir Prize]

Well, all I ask for is better box art and...Blasto!

LOL we need better box art

What with people caring about the box art?

Who really cares about the box art?

More on topic: Awesome!
A quicker turn around time will give me just enough time to get through ME2 with all 4 of my characters from ME1, and thus letting me be ready for ME3! Sign me up, so long as they don't have some lame tag line for it. "Finish the fight!" anyone? Not that I don't like Halo, I thought they were all fun games...but that line just screamed 'marketing' way too much for my taste.

EDIT:

Please don't do the Bungie thing of trying to spin off ME into a RTS game like they did with Halo!

You do know that Halo was originally intended to be an RTS game, right?

Point taken, but box art can change the choice someone who has never played the game makes. However I do hop the third game doesn't come out too fast...I would like enough time to play through at least twice.
