Mass Effect 2

Mass Effect 2
is an amazing game. It has all of the benchmarks of a truly great
science-fiction epic: a heroic main character, memorable companions each
with their own personalities and abilities, terror-inducing villains,
vast galaxies to explore, exotic alien races, strange worlds and
locations, high-technology weapons and vehicles, and a story that will
have fans talking about it and replaying it for ages.





In Mass Effect 2, you play as Commander Shepard who has to lead a
crack team of mercenaries, scientists and soldiers on a mission to
investigate the disappearances of human colonies throughout the galaxy.
Who lives, who dies and the ultimate success or failure of the mission,
is up to you. Now BioWare and the Mass Effect team are proud to bring Mass Effect 2 to the PlayStation community.



PlayStation fans have been asking for Mass Effect for years and we are
very pleased to finally be bringing it to a new branch of Mass Effect
fans. However, what I think Mass Effect fans on the PS3 will be most
appreciative of is that this is not a simple port. The Mass Effect team
has taken the time to utilize the PS3 hardware to the fullest in order
to maximize your gameplay experience. It was also extremely important
for the team to make sure playing with the PS3 controller worked and
felt good. You will also see that the in-game graphics and cinematics
are clearer and more vibrant on the PS3. As an added bonus, the PS3
version includes previously released DLC missions: Overlord, Lair of the
Shadow Broker and Kasumi.





Mass Effect 2 takes place after Mass Effect 1 and some fans were
concerned they would miss out on some of the important story choices
available in the first game. The Mass Effect team, working with the fine
folks at Dark Horse Comics, has created an interactive in-game comic
that allows players new to the franchise to experience Mass Effect 1
while making the story choices that have repercussions in Mass Effect 2.


There is a demo of Mass Effect now available on the PlayStation Network. You can learn more about the demo here.
This demo lets you play the start of Mass Effect 2 as well as
introducing you to one of your potential party members, Dr Mordin Solus.
Dr Solus, or Mordin to his friends, is a salarian scientist who can not
only heal the sick; he can create new exotic weapons to use in battle.
Finding Mordin and recruiting him to join you and your suicide mission
will not be easy.


Look for Mass Effect 3 to come to the PS3 in Holiday 2011.
