Mass Effect 2: where else will you see aliens singing Gilbert and Sullivan?

The count down is on.

With the beginning of this new decade in this, the 21st of our modern centuries, on the date of twenty and six with the stars of Orion acting as a sign post… it will begin.

The hype machine is in full gear for the Mass Effect 2 launch and I, humble as I may be, am doing everything in my power to fuel those flames with my unceasing fandom (wah wah). This game, if you somehow dug a hole and managed to fall in it, is the continuation of Commander Shepard and crew’s odyssey through space putting things right that once went wrong, and hoping each time that their next leap…. wait…

Its being touted as the Empire Strikes Back of the Mass Effect saga, and that can only be a good thing.

Unless that elephant alien is Shepard’s father… that would just be weird.

Regardless, enjoy the launch trailer:

I am verging on forgiving Blizzard for splitting the game into three seperate parts…but they need more than a 37 second clip to truly win me over. I am trying to comfort myself with the presumption that more time in between games means that they’ll be wonderous and beautiful, and everything a girl could hope for.. I really hope I’m not wrong

I mean, it would be completely irrational for them to have finished all three parts at the same time with minimal effort and they’re just releasing them spaced out like this because they’re a bunch of no good, lazy, bastard, suits who are just in it for the padding of my wallet. Right?

PixelJunk Shooter dropped on the PSN yesterday, and it includes the very nifty option to record video and direct upload to YouTube from within the game. We’ve discussed this feature of the PS3 before, but it’s nice to see games actually using it!
