Two new Mass Effect 3 screens - winning!

Screens: It's not quite a gallery's worth, but new screens from Mass Effect 3 are always cause for celebration.

Mass Effect 3 is sitting in an awkward spot. Mass Effect was pretty good; it had flaws, but the setting and story mattered more than shitty cameras and poor action. Mass Effect 2 improved - in our humble opinion - the entire game, and delivered a cinematic storytelling experience that literally had us on the edge of our seat for the entire last act.

So how does Mass Effect 3 top that? Even worse... what do we if it sucks?!

But that's something for future-us to worry about. Right now, present-us is drooling over these new screens from the game. They're not much, but they're sexy as hell and promise some new villains, more action, and a fracking excellent game engine.

Enjoy!

Cerberus don't seem happy that I blew up their station, and stole their chick and spaceship.

Bioware if you ever read this I wish for 3 things:

1. for the PC version we need MORE guns and MORE upgrades, what you do with the console versions is none of my concern just make sure lots of things go boom and you will get 10/10 from and consolite.

2. no more gears of war, if I upgrade my shield I want to be able to stand there like ME1 and cop a beating before retreating back into cover to slap some gel on my wounds.

3. NO more thermal clips, I mean come on... in ME1 spectre master gear could keep firing non stop with the right upgrades... "thermal clips increase battlefield efficiency" my ass they do, so when you run out of ammo instead of waiting for your gun to cool down for 2 seconds you can't fire it.... nice one very forard thinking DERP!
