Mass Effect 3 Debut Trailer is Epic
While I admit I’m equally excited about the recent announcements of Elderscrolls V: Skyrim, and Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, nothing had my jaw drop quite as fast as the debut trailer for Bioware’s upcoming Mass Effect 3. I’m sure what we’ve witnessed is a pre-rendered CG film clip, but if the visuals even come close to that, we’ll all be in for quite a treat.
As the clip opens up to reveal larger-than-life Geth constructs hovering over a war-torn world, we’re given a scale that we haven’t really seen since last year’s Resistance 2. Even though this kind of scale is always awe-inspiring, the trailer leads me to believe that Bioware’s take won’t fail to impress — much like the recent teaser for Insomniac’s Resistance 3, which admittedly feels very vapid in comparison. Let’s hope Bioware can manage to keep it fresh.
