CCC 20 - Level 3 Hazard

Mass Effect is a fun game. It tells a great story, it has beautiful graphics (when they load), and the gameplay is like KotOR only souped-up and without tacky melee combat (come on, does anyone really believe their convoluted explanations for why there's still swordplay? It's just fanservice of a different sort). Of course, as anyone who's played it knows, it has its fair share of flaws. Some will point out the menu interface, Penny Arcade's excellent Nitpicking sequence identified the nonsensical "hacking" mechanism and ridiculous load times. I chose to poke fun at the fact that the Mako is the most rugged ATV ever conceived, and you can roll over mountains and shit, and yet you can't jump. Probably something to do with L2 implants, or the Protheans not having mastered jumping technology.

If you're curious to see some more of my musings regarding Mass Effect, I point you in the direction of my fanfic and fanart. I've got some more sketches I've been doing in class, but those aren't ready for serious viewing.
