A recent tweet from the official Twitter stated that there will be roughly an hour of downtime for the multiplayer portion of Mass Effect 3 starting at 4AM PST/7AM EST for scheduled maintenance. This is relevant for all platforms in all time zones, but it shouldn’t affect the majority of players.

This is absolutely mental.  I’m actually reeling from what might be the best PS Plus update for Europe that Sony have ever done. In the Instant Game Collection update for March, Sony will be introducing Mass Effect 3, Dead or Alive 5 and Joe Danger 2 for PS3 gamers. Meanwhile, PS Vita owners get the hugely underrated physics puzzler Puddle for free and the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection for free [...]

Having recently passed away from a heart attack, Robin Sachs is most recently known for his work in the Mass Effect series, having portrayed mercenary hero Zaeed Massasni. In homage to the English voice actor with a substantial body of work, this weekend’s challenge for Mass Effect 3 is dubbed Operation: TRIBUTE wherein you have to acquire 50,000 points using the M-8 Avenger and 50,000 points using Inferno Grenade.

You like strategy games? You like Mass Effect? You…like both of these things together? Well, BioWare just revealed that there is going to be a Mass Effect version of the ever-popular Risk strategy game. Prototype image behind the cut.

Really? I see one of my co-writers Tweet about this and he doesn’t post a story? Lazy son of a…. The news came out today from Bioware that the full Mass Effect Trilogy will be getting re-released in a nice Collector’s package this coming November on the Xbox 360 and the PC.

The internet sleuths have done it again!

At their Summer Showcase today, EA/Bioware confirmed that Mass Effect 3 will receive a continuation to its a single-player campaign, with the  new ‘Leviathan’ downloadable content for PC, 360 and PS3.

Those loveable RPG rogues over at Bioware have today confirmed that Wii U owners who fancy themselves a bit of Mass Effect 3, will get access to the recently released extended cut DLC right off the disc from day one.

Wait’s over, folks. The extended ending DLC for Mass Effect 3 is coming out next week on Tuesday, June 26th for you big crybabies. No additional charge, either, but I’m sure some people will still find a way to complain about the 1.9 GB download across all platforms in many regions.

It’s only $29.99 on the platform of your choice for the regular edition. Yes, that means you can get it for a literal hair under half the normal MSRP. Do it.
