Day 1 buy for me. PC version, glad to hear it's looking great already. :)

Dhampir3305d ago

Everything that's been said is from the developers themselves, you realize this right? They haven't released even a screenshot.

Day 1 buy... really?

JeffGUNZ3305d ago (Edited 3305d ago )

Yes, day 1 with zero hesitation. I think they earned their trust with how beautiful Mass Effect 1, 2, and 3 were. Truly the most amazing franchise I played last gen. (my opinion of course)

medman3304d ago

It's a day one buy for me also, as the Mass Effect trilogy is my favorite experience in gaming of the last generation. There are other games that I love from that gen, such as The Last of Us (my number one single game of the era), Uncharted 2, the first Gears of War (as some examples)....but taken together as 3 games Mass Effect is my favorite so take my money.

Mikefizzled3305d ago (Edited 3305d ago )

I'm shocked that they thought there was potential for Vita version.

BattleAxe3305d ago

Seem as though this site says that every game looks stunning or jaw dropping...

Daves3305d ago

If you read the article you'll find the site is actually quoting the devs.

Tsar4ever013305d ago

Well, IF Dragon Age: Inquisition has anything to go By being the next-gen MASS Effect will be running off DICE's FROSTBITE 4 engine, which means according to history, it dictates that ME4 will run in 1080p/30 on PS4 and 900p/30 on XB1. Hopefully Bio Ware would get better tabs off BOTH consoles so they both will be 1080p/30 and everyone will be happy.

But Up to this point, my predictions is MASS EFFECT 4, 1080p/30 on PS4 and 900p/30 on XB1. Ps4 will own the resolution and XB1 will have the more stabilized fps cuz of higher clocked cpu and lower 900p resolution.

No_Pantaloons3305d ago

Yea all they talk about is how it looks, yet no one was complaining about the graphics of ME3, they are either clueless or purposely choosing to ignore all the past criticism.

poppinslops3305d ago

Have you not played Dragon Age?
They've learned (hence the multiple GotY awards).

My concern is this 'current hardware' comment... there better not be PS3/360 versions in the works.

No_Pantaloons3305d ago

I have played dragon age, and the last 2 haven't been that good. Gaming critic are bias for AAA's at best and corrupt (paid off) at worst, GOTY means nothing anymore.

For a company that used to be praised for story and innovation, they do little to no talking about that or how theyre winning back ppl after ME3. That wasn't just a minor mistep, there was a MASSIVE backlash, and a little reassurance wouldn't hurt, but they keep talking about graphics instead.

kraenk123305d ago (Edited 3305d ago )

DAI was the worst Dragon Age game of them all. It was huge and beautiful but concerning the RPG and story elements it was pretty lackluster. Hope they don't repeat that with ME4!

DAI only got those GOTY awards because there was no competition in 2014.

Mass Effect 4 and The Challenges of Canonicity in Choice-Based Games

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.

phoenixwing365d ago

They should redo the main trilogy

just_looken365d ago (Edited 365d 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.

just_looken365d ago

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

GhostScholar365d ago (Edited 365d 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?

porkChop365d ago

Dragon Age is not more popular than Mass Effect.

shinoff2183365d 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_drake365d 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
