double pretzel?

So, blah blah Mass Effect Trilogy blah blah coming out on Nov 6th blah blah I don't really care. Except for this little bit of information...

Will the original Mass Effect be available as a standalone game on PlayStation 3?

• Yes, the original Mass Effect will be available as a standalone digital title through the PlayStation Network for $14.99. It will release the same day as the Mass Effect Trilogy on PlayStation 3.

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the roaring thunder that is my screaming~

\o/

I am yet again amazed at how I will apparently never be able to get away from this series ffs.


I have been a flaky flake who flakes lately, guys. Sorry about that. Many annoyances in my life have just leant to me abso not wanting to deal with anything right now. I blame my family for their propensity to soul-suck. :/ Anywho, things should be back to normal relatively soonish. <3

"The entire series has been an affront to expectation: we believe we can do something and we make it true; tell Shepard she can’t and she’ll call you back when she has."

"I guess what I wanted from the ending – what I’m still waiting for in fact – is my Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz moment. The point where we get to pull back the curtain, show this little glowing jerk just how artless and crass these options are, how ridiculous his whole existence is. I know it’s childish – petulant even – but I want to swim in the moment where my Shepard stands up and says, ‘No.’ Where she looks that shimmering monster of equation in the eye and says, ‘These are not real choices, and I don’t believe in you.’"

- Mass Effect 3: Why I Didn’t Like The Ending by Colin Dray

Yeah, I know people don't care anymore but I came across this just now and yes. YES. THIS. All the shit we accomplished against unbelievable odds. The ending should have reflected that.

That will be all. For now.

The ME3 Extended Cut comes out in 4 days. That is like, really soon, ack. Truthfully, I don't expect much but I'm pretty curious to see what they'be come up with to explain the clusterfuck they call an ending.

This is either going to make or break my faith in this franchise (as of right now it's not looking good).

So. We shall see.
