BioWare Breaks Down Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer in New Trailer
Yes, yes, the rumors are true. Mass Effect 3 is boldly going where no series entry has gone before it: the Internet. If you're worried that BioWare's mindlessly running and gunning for Call of Duty's throne, though, you can go ahead and call off your precision orbital strike. Instead, Galaxy at War – as it's known – is a series of four-player co-op missions that can ultimately impact your single-player ending. Fortunately for those who'd rather keep the spotlight all to themselves, though, it's completely optional. Check out the trailer below for a full explanation that could only be better if it was read in FemShep's soothing you-just-wait-I'm-going-to-murder-you voice.

I'd like to see Mass Effect add the feature to toggle control of your party members (think Dragon Age), but I have reservations about the co-op mode. It feels to me like something that should have been fleshed out in the next Mass Effect game that isn't about Shepard. I've been building my Shepard story across multiple years, and the co-op portion really seems like a break in that experience. I'll withhold my final judgement until i've seen it of course, but I'm not liking what I'm seeing so far.

This is definitely a welcoming change. I always love co-op based gameplay. The graphics look very nice too. I also like how you can now play more races that you couldn't before. Overall, Mass Effect is cool.

What I truly like about Mass Effect is that it's a story with multiple outcomes. Personally, I rather enjoy the fact that I am able to make decisions, and based on those decisions, affect the outcome of the Mass Effect Universe.
