Boy oh boy I sure am looking forward to this. Mass Effect has been my favourite new, next gen RPG-ish game. 1 was really fresh and good, and 2 improved on it in nearly every way.

Cannot wait for this. Mass Effect 2 is one of my favorite games of all time and I'm really excited to get to play the third one.

Yeah Zu I totally agree, all my favorite games (Half Life 2, Mass Effect, God of War, Fallout, the first Bioshock) are all single-player only games. Multiplayer games can have great single player campaigns as well (Gears of War) but the absence of multiplayer really lets the single player stand out so much more.

I think MP would ruin Mass Effect. I hope they don't do it.

I dunno, I think they did ok with BioShock 2, and then AC Brotherhood the MP is actually really fucking cool.
I would at least maybe like to see co-op-able quests in the ME game engine.

Well, for the most part, Bioware's RPG's have been single-player thus far, and they've all pretty much been badass. From Baldur's Gate to KoToR, Jade Empire, Dragon Age, and Mass Effect, their games have been able to shine on through as amazing with great stories and gameplay because they didn't have to spend time worrying about the multiplayer. Their sole focus on single-player has proved well in the past and while I don't see them making Mass Effect 3 mulit-player, I feel it would indeed take away a bit from the series we've all come to love.

...although, co-op would be cool.
Thanks Meta. I hadn't thought of that.

All this multiplayer talk about ME 3 reminded me of something I saw on ign that I completely agreed with

Quote by ign:
You know what's great about Mass Effect? That you're the star of an epic sci-fi action story. You're the hero. You're making decisions that alter the universe and make it unique. Everyone is relying on you to save the galaxy from destruction. It's all about you.
Multiplayer, on the other hand, is all about everyone else. Your role is minimized, because it has to be. When hundreds of thousands of players are participating, they can't all be galaxy-saving heroes. The decisions you make in multiplayer modes are more gear-centric than actual moral dilemmas. On one hand, Mass Effect's universe would be reasonably suited to a multiplayer title, but armies and massive gun battles aren't what people come for.
