could happen, they have said 3 won't be the end of the mass effect universe just Sheppards story

Perjoss4563d ago

That's pretty cool, I thought Mass Effect was a trilogy only.

Wizziokid4562d ago

yeah I'm glad they will keep the universe alive, it's so big they can go in any direction with it really, who knows what the next chapter will be

SilleGamer4563d ago

Hopefully Mass Effect will live on with the next cycle of consoles. :)

limewax4563d ago

Agreed but I want to see it re-invent itself next gen. No more system maps, Galaxy map yeah but replace the system map with actual ship exploration.

Make multiple docking bays on important planets so we have more of the planet to explore. Even if they had to cut back on the length of conversations it would be a worthy trade off for the gained feel of exploration.

user8586214563d ago

Damn!! just the thought of a next gen mass effect makes my brain explode! :/

SilleGamer4563d ago

Yeah it will undoubtedly look drop-dead gorgeous.

Can't wait!

bahabeast86194563d ago

why are we talkin about xbox 720 when the xbox 360 is still here and kicking? and why are we talking about mass effect 4 when 3 isnt even released yet??

SilleGamer4563d ago

Yeah, agreed!

Somehow Xbox World seem to know a lot concerning next gen title development.

Must have some great contacts! :)

Shadowaste4563d ago (Edited 4563d ago )

Next gen xbox is coming out in 1 year, that's why we are talking about it!

Be glad, the reign of 720p or less and jaggies everywhere on consoles is ending.

Bring on the 1080p at 60 frames, Bring on the next gen!!

Game Rant Writes "Canonicity can be a tricky nut to crack in franchises with continuing narratives, and that's something Mass Effect 4 will need to contend with."

wow gamerant forgot mass effect 4 came out years ago number 6 and 7 were cancelled.

The new mass effect which can be called number 5 will not have any of your choices why you might ask?

Well dragon age keep were your choices from number one can been seen in number 3 got unplugged from number one and number 2 is finicky.

Dragon age on pc requires a mod to get past the server login and non of your choices get uploaded to the keep even the dlc no longer works sense it needs a server check.

On xbox i teseted this only though local saves i was able to transfer choices from one to too but 0 of one dlc would work.

So if the more popular dragon age series is in this state why would they care about your mass effect choices?

Oh and that remaster that was tossed out still has day one issues and number 3 is still hard to play on pc do to lighting issues and ram limits imposed from 2014.

My expectations for the next bioware 2.0 titles is very low.

They should redo the main trilogy

just_looken372d ago (Edited 372d ago )

They should redo the dragon age trilogy for sure on pc DA1 the ui is messed up sense it was for 4080p/720i days back in 2005. Getting to run is also very hard

The only way to play dragon age one is via xbox one backwards compatable state.

The ps3 version of dragon age one is pre throphy/ in game xmb so it has the freezing/crashing issues or just will not run.

Well i am not American so please enlighten me on usa education before your country invades mine and forces us into your society

GhostScholar372d ago (Edited 372d ago )

@ just_looken

Did I mention education? Never said America did have negative points. I know for all you “enlightened” people you think everything is either all good or all bad, but in reality that’s not how life works. We have a government that traded a known terrorist for a basketball player who moonlights as a drug dealer. We aren’t perfect by a long shot. If you want to go political though how about your leader leaving his own country when the truck driver strike happened?

porkChop372d ago

Dragon Age is not more popular than Mass Effect.

shinoff2183372d ago

Yea I read that and was like I've heard way more people talk mass effect compared to dragon age. Personally I'm more into mass effect. It's got the whole dope ass sci fi thing going on while dragon age has the same old medieval thing

gold_drake372d ago

andromeda is a spin off tjo and not considerd a numvered title. as it has to 99% nothing to do with the trilogy.

i think they need to make the destroy perfect ending canon.
we need more of shepard. haha.

Mass Effect 4 Can Explore Post-Apocalyptic Themes

Game Rant Writes "Mass Effect 4 will likely treat Mass Effect 3’s Destroy ending as canon, and this gives it an opportunity to explore a post-apocalyptic galaxy."

Destroy is the best choice. Bring the relays back over the course of a new trilogy, maybe right at the end of the first game. Say it was Cerberus, Salarians or a bunch of keepers that created a relay.

Tons of opportunities since most anyone who made it special is long gone
