What book was this?

[Queen Michael]

A while ago there was a big hooplah over some novel based on a video game that messed up the details. What novel was it again?

Mass Effect: Deception? That's the only thing that is coming to mind.

Isn't that the one where some kid 'grows out of' Autism and some guy goes straight for no reason?

No idea, never read it. I just remember all the back lash for it not keeping with the established Mass Effect cannon and pissing off most of the fan base. I had to Google the name.

Yeppers, that's the one. I got no idea how they could greenlight its release.

Have you read the novels based on the first two Doom games? They went right into Weirdsville. Some publishers just don't care.

Apparently they said they were going to fix the issues and then re-release it but I haven't heard much about it since. I am glad I read the reviews before buying it as I read all of the ones released before.

Out of curiosity is there any particular reason you were asking?

I just wanted to check it out on TVtropes.

Greenlight is nothing but a popularity contest.

....Oh, you mean....

I seriously doubt they cared. Like, seriously seriously. I bet they just wanted to sell more ME stuff.

I mean, genetic and biological modification is basically the national sport in the ME universe, obviously we've done something pretty extensive to make ourselves a viable base platform for plug-and-play psionics.

Pffft. How hard could it be? I installed a DVR in my brain last week, and you hardly see me ostrich soda beep boogle gazongas!
