Based on your interest in... (Mass Effect)

Want to play a game where you are the captain of this ship:
with a crew of over fifty lower ranked men and five close officers? Hollywood has not delivered on blockbuster science fiction in years. Where is this generation's 'Undiscovered country", our 'Aliens' our 'Solaris'or '2001'? Its in a video game--> 'Mass Effect' Have you guys heard of it? It is a three part trilogy all on the XBOX 360. Based on ya'lls interests on this blog i'm confidantthat you will love Mass Effect. This is something you can play while your wife watches you old men. Great dialouge and characters, coupled with deep ethical, philosphical and exestential questions make for a fantastic and high stakes action game. Here is the trailer for the first one (can't embed): http://youtu.be/nqBpRJ7qgaM there are three games now and the story concluded, but i reccomend not spoiling the later chapters. the descisions you make carry over into the subsequent games and have weighty consequences. Choose to be diplomatic, or aggresivly intimidating. here is an article on the cultural importance of this game: http://kotaku.com/5886178/why-mass-effect-is-the-most-important-science-fiction-universe-of-our-generation?tag=masseffect xbox is now about 200$ at gamestop. well worth mass effect. ...and a buncha other games im gonna make you play once you buy it ;)
