Best Cosplay Ever? Garrus From Mass Effect In The (Fake) Flesh
YouTube user sithlord314 isn't a cosplayer. He's a freaking Turian. I've seen a lot of cosplayers and this is the best Mass Effect costume, and one of the best sci-fi costumes, I've ever seen. The mask alone is unbelievable, and the armor is both sculpted incredibly well and illuminated. All that's missing is pop-out weapons that mount conveniently on the back.
The maker is the proprietor of My Wicked Armor, and based on his other projects it's a puzzlement why he isn't currently working for a major production house already. He does custom jobs, though.
Entering The Lair: Mass Effect 2 Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC Review
[UPDATE] Eurogamer reports that Bioware has fixed the Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC for Xbox 360 and PC. While I appreciate the quick turnaround, the fact remains that they shouldn't have put out broken product. Original review below.
Mass Effect 2 has gained what could easily be the last DLC for the game and it's the largest addition yet. Lair of the Shadow Broker finally bring you face to face with the person who been running things behind the scenes in the Mass Effect universe. But does this hold up to the rest of the series?
DLC Double Shot: Bioware Releasing Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age DLC Next Tuesday
Bioware's releasing two DLC packs for their two biggest games, Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age: Origins. Both drop on September 7 and will cost you $10 each. The trailer located above is for this year's critical darling and Game of the Year forerunner, Mass Effect 2. Titled "Lair of the Shadow Broker", this piece of DLC reunites Commander Shepard with one of the possible love interests from the first game, Liara T'Soni. The DLC will take you into the chambers of the mysterious Shadow Broker, a figure that had featured heavily in the periphery of the games and directly in the plot of the Mass Effect: Retribution comic book.
The trailer located after the jump is for last year's Dragon Age: Origins. Taking place after the end of Dragon Age: Origins, this will have you going after one of the party members and finding out just what they've been up to. Any more details would be a spoiler, so if you still haven't finished Dragon Age: Origins, I suggest you avoid the video.
Mass Effect 2 Defects to the PS3
You read that right. In a surprise turn, Bioware's extremely well reviewed third-person shooter action RPG is no longer an Xbox 360 exclusive. This was announced during EA's Gamescom press briefing; the game is set for January 2011. It will only be the second game, as Mass Effect was published by Microsoft.
