BioWare Announces Mass Effect
BioWare's track record reads like the fabled New York Yankees legacy. Simply put, this development studio can do no wrong and their next project is always hotly anticipated. We knew they were hard at work on an exclusive title for Xbox 360 and until this week's X05 event, said title was kept under tight wraps. Surprisingly BioWare has chosen not to sequel Jade Empire for Xbox 360, instead choosing to tackle a new property built from the ground up. Mass Effect is a futuristic action/rpg "choose your action" based adventure pitting the first galactic defender against aggressive and hostile alien races. It is being designed as the first game in a trilogy story arc that will most likely span the entire life-cycle of the Xbox 360. No timetable has been given for the first game's release but if we had to guess, we'd peg it for Fall, 2006.Source: http://xbox360.themanroom.com/
