Apparently Mass Effect 2 for PS3 uses the ME3 engine.

Actually, the talk was the decisions from ME1 will have larger repercussions in ME3. What was mentioned specifically about ME2 with regards to ME3 is wether or not you "cheated" on your love interest from ME1.

Re: Mass Effect 3
:lol:
I've heard of those Mordin convos (apparently he has one regarding each love interest you're currently locked into) but have never been able to trigger one.

I had no love interest in ME1. The women in that game sucked.

For the record, I also disliked Ashley at first. However, that never changed throughout the course of my 7 playthroughs. To remain spoiler-free, I'll just say that Kaiden was still with me at the end of the game nearly every time. |

Clint Mansell to do Mass Effect 3 soundtrack
In a recent interview with music publication The Quietus, famed composer Clint Mansell revealed that he’s currently working on the soundtrack for the highly anticipated Mass Effect 3. Mansell, who is most known for working with director Darren Aronofsky on films like The Wrestler and Black Swan describes his role as a DJ, hoping his music will aide the player. “You’ve got the holding pattern, then the big explosion where you need the score to kick in,” he says. “Then you need to take it off on a tangent. You’ve got all these different elements that change depending on what the player does. You have to figure out an overall symphony, but be able to break it down into component parts. You can bring the pain when required.” http://blastmagazine.com/the-magazin...-3-soundtrack/ |
Re: Mass Effect 3
Clint Mansell is great and all but... What happened to Jack Wall and his collaborators? :(
Oh and obligatory Requiem For A Dream score track: <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/hKLpJtvzlEI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Oh and one from The Fountain for good measure: <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/ihF_aXi-Huk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

Re: Mass Effect 3
I think it's well suited :shrug:
<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BtCpttsZiys" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> It isn't his best OST, but it actually shows a good bit of range. Kind of weird seeming him going from something of a indie flick hero to doing something big like Mass Effect. Admittingly, Aronofsky gets the best out of him. Another clip. Spoiler:

Re: Mass Effect 3
There's no denying Clint Mansell is a fantastic choice. It's just a shame they gave Jack Wall, Sam Hulick, Richard Jacques, David Kates and Jimmy Hinson the boot after they'd done such a great job with Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2. I would have rather Clint Mansell be collaborating with them than having replaced them entirely.
That gripe aside, I'm sure I'll adore whatever he has in store for Mass Effect 3. |

ME 3 is the cover story of the new Game Informer
http://media1.gameinformer.com/image...erfront610.jpg Commander Shepard has already saved the galaxy twice, but the final entry in the Mass Effect trilogy could be either the hero's last stand or finest hour. Earth is in jeopardy, entire civilizations are at risk, and we've got all the details. Our latest issue has 12 pages of exclusive info, screens, and art that no Mass Effect fan should miss. |
Re: Mass Effect 3
I'm still really looking forward to this game but the bugs that plague Dragon Age II really have me worried about how broken Mass Effect 3 will be when released.
|
Re: Mass Effect 3
Here's some info that came from the Game Informer story.
It talks about how the events at the end of Arrival tie into it, so if you haven't played that yet, you may want to skip the spoiler. Want to know about the new details for Mass Effect 3 in the latest Game Informer magazine? We have them right here. Spoiler:
As far as which characters you’ll be seeing, the following list is of playable ones: Liara Ashley or Kaiden James Sanders Garrus These characters are confirmed to be in the game, but may not be squad-mates: Wrex Mordin Legion Anderson Thankfully weapon mods are coming back, allowing you to attach parts onto your weapons, such as scopes, barrels etc. All classes in Mass Effect 3 can use every type of weapon available, but may be limited to how many weapons they can carry. The soldier class will be able to carry all weapons at once. Skill trees will be larger this time around, and your powers will evolve a few times as well. http://nerdreactor.com/2011/04/08/ma...game-informer/ |

Re: Mass Effect 3
I don't remember James Sanders? Is he a new character?
So Jack, Miranda, Thane (well he was terminally ill in ME2), Grunt, Tali, Jacob (won't miss him), Samara, Kasumi, Zaeed, and Doctor Chakwas might not return? :( Or are they simply unconfirmed?

I just hope greater care and polish is taken with ME3 because the bug reports regarding DAII are frightening. |

I highly doubt that ME3 will be complete gibberish if you didn't play through one or more of ME2's DLC entries.
Maybe it's not a big deal, we won't know until ME3 comes out. But this whole DLC thing is exposing a tension of what exactly a videogame text is. |
Re: Mass Effect 3
Nice, I hadn't heard that because I try to avoid spoilers when possible.
I haven't played any of the ME2 DLC yet (though owning all but The Arrival thanks to sales). I plan to get to all of them eventually. If I like a game, I have no problem paying for and playing through the DLC. If the DLC is required to understand the sequel, then the writers fail at setting the stage during the sequel. Since we know there will be an introduction in ME3 for people that didn't play ME2 (like ME2 had for ME1-less people). I would imagine that would, at least, roughly cover the essential story points, DLC or otherwise. |
