Oh please don't let the right wing conservatives get a hold of this or they will try blaming homosexuality on video games too.

RT “@DaBigDragon: @CaseyDHudson Oh, so there's actually 2 films being made for Mass Effect? One live action, one animated?” Correct.

Who's gonna play Shepard?

I dunno if you guys remember, but before ME2 came out, Legion was framed as a unique antagonist:

Well, now The Illusive Man is portrayed as the new antagonist too... but I don't think so. I actually think he's going to be a surprising character with the possibility of even belonging to the squad, if only during a sole mission. Perhaps he's cornered and Shepard will bump into him and will have to decide if he's going to rescue the guy or not, if he's gonna trust him or not.

He'll be "cornered" (unsure about details) by Cerberus themselves, who are indoctrinated and (perhaps) also trying to get TIM.

Final note. TIM's eyes are husk-like because he was almost turned into a husk. Probably some of you know this by now, but I'll bet most don't. So there's also a caveat lurking there.

BioWare will give female Shepard her own trailer and place on Mass Effect 3′s box

Marketing director David Silverman says they’re putting the female Shepard, and the male one, on the box for the collector’s edition of the game. And they’re now working on a new trailer for the game that stars the female version of the hero. Silverman says they’re working on her appearance, but that it’s been influenced by input from the cult fanbase the female Shepard has inspired.

It's in the comics. I think Evolution. I read them both so there ;).

This really doesn't do your theory any favors.

Just looked on the Bioware site. There are some new videos, one of which ("Fall of Earth") contains some gameplay, and a release date: 03/06/12. I do hope that means March 6th and not June 3rd. Not sure whether the gameplay one has been discussed here or not but seeing no gameplay discussion in the last couple pages I might as well bring it up.

From the look of it, Shep now has access to a fairly powerful melee weapon which can be upgraded to freeze (or, probably, burn). The bit at the end of "Fall of Earth" makes it look a hell of a lot like the Halo energy blade thingie, which seems cheap but at least they ripped off a cool weapon.

Also looks like grenades are back WOOOOOOOO

There was (also in "Fall of Earth") this quote: "...the fate of the world- of every world- rests in his [Shep's] hands."

1. BLEH more dude!Shepard trailers
2. This along with "DECIDE HOW IT ENDS" basically confirms meaningfully multiple endings. Which is awesome. They may retcon them later or only call one "official", but as the Krogans say, "I will inflict upon retcons the greatest insult an enemy can suffer- to be ignored."

Basically, there was an E3 event a month ago, and now Comic Con. E3 was already discussed, but a list of links don't hurt anyone.

E3 videos show gameplay:

@ ComicCon, some few interesting tid bits:

Mass Effect will have a movie done by Legendary studios which will probably cover ME1's story.

Female Shepard is gonna have a standard option, and right now there are 6 possibilities. The most voted one will be the standard one:

The six FemSheps:

FemShep 5 @ the lead (the blonde one), which makes me somewhat sad, seems like a Final Fantasy character.

Why none of the femsheps there is the default femshep is a bit baffling to me.

I was puzzled too until I read this (from the article Luis Dias linked):

Casey Hudson has confirmed in a Tweet that players will also be able to choose the iconic red-head Shepherd from Mass Effect 2 alongside the new fan-favourite.

I'm disappointed they left the decision to fans. That blonde one's unfortunate.

The first one looks like Winona Ryder.

EDIT>>

Looking at the article this is an additional choice to the red head, they're still keeping the 'stock' Shep.

I'm actually rather un-hyped.

Got a gut-feeling that the game will be disappointing. And my gut hasn't been wrong yet.
