Well, I guess we now know what's causing Earth to burn.

The British soldier reminds me of some actor I'm sure I know of.

Brilliant. Thanks very much for that insight. 
 
Its really nice to see the city I was born in representing our planet. Makes it obvious that this game wasn't developed by Americans.

@MysteriousBob: Blow me.

To hell with these trailers, I need my I Love Mondays video. I really do. The week can't start without it.

Daddy never loved you?

Space war is always interesting. It's a pity myself and Mass Effect do not agree with one other - my ME1 save file has about 3 hours to it. Sigh.

While I would normally critisize people for posting useless crap in an attempt to be "first", you can't really blame people for doing it here.  Blame the silly quest system.

I'm American and even I'm getting sick of so many games [and movies for that matter] taking place in the same two places, New York and Los Angeles. We have a vivid geography!

I started ME & ME2 over the last month and must say, brilliant brilliant games. Totally goty hands down. The implementation of posturing into the otherwise static conversations made the normally slow part fun to watch. Best atmosphere in a game ever is the afterlife bar on omega. Mordins loyalty mission is so full of emotion and abstract concepts. Just a great game and can't wait for ME³ or would it be M3

Shepard?

Words cannot express how badly I want this game...

" ....what's cause Earth to burn"? 
SYNTAX ERROR.

He's already done the quest, multiple times. He just likes to get there to piss people off.

Oh, I'm very happy to see London as well, although it would be better to see a less typical representation of the UK.  Even Edinburgh would make a great change.   
 
I'd still bet that none of the game actually takes place there though, and this was just used for the sake of a trailer.

FUCK I WANT THIS GAME NOW
 
Mass Effect 2 is my favourite game of all time and I've been around for a long while.

London is probably in the top 5 areas of movie making too... :(

@WinterSnowblind: Nobody is owed that quest (or any of them). People just want everything immediately. I feel I might as well be posting on YouTube.
 
It's funny, Snide recently criticized YouTube in a tweet concerning their comments sections being absolutely worthless, which makes me wonder if he/others have actually noticed how dumb these quests make the site look. If somebody new to the site is checking out a video scrolls down to gander at the community, they'll see about a page worth of spam. Well, if that's what they want?

haha. I'd once written "a" and got the quest :D

Absolutely adore this teaser. Having it set in London, on top of Big Ben is just fantastic.

Silly trailer. Everyone knows Shepard is a lady!

Shit just got real.

I agree. I understand that it's hard to predict how these things may turn out, but this idea has officially failed. They need to swallow their pride and just remove it, already.

good ass cg.  

Posted by jd3shaw

I thought the voice was Sam Worthington at the start and I thought to myself, oh no... (and I'm an Australian) But later I realized it's not him, so all is good. I'm not a fan of his acting, voice or otherwise. I don't know exactly why

MUST OWN...

I just finished Mass Effect 2 yesterday. It's been a while since a game's story had me this engaged.  A fantastic series.

So true.
Posted by ricetopher

Best part of the trailer? The return of the ME1 music at the end

Posted by Dustpan

Can't wait to hear Mark Meer's silky smooth voice.

Posted by Branthog

Holy shit. I actually couldn't figure out if that was live action or CG for the first half of the trailer. Fantastic!

I just recently realised that I always refer to Shepard when I'm talking about her as a her. 
 
I really feel like I should know that voice actor. 
If it weren't for Dragon Age 2 coming between now and next year I think I would die a little.
Posted by Kieran_ES

Jason Statham? Is that you?

Posted by AlsoKnownAsJazz
@Abyssfull: Sam Worthington, from Avatar. At least, that's who I thought of.

Cant wait for Mass Effect 2 to hit ps3.

Posted by Bamsen

aawww yeah

Edited by Undeadpool

I love how the ME trailers (at least for 2 and 3) have barely featured Shepard at all, yet still manage to convey the tone of the game effectively. 
 
@sofacitysweetheart: If you go to almost ANY online site that allows comments (particularly for pop culture), you'll see the same thing. The same thing was happening BEFORE the implementation of the Quest system. I don't get it myself, but people just LOVE being the first time comment on something regardless of if they have anything of substance to say.

Posted by Sanryd

Holy fuck that looks awesome.

Posted by Brenderous

Only one thing's for sure: If Shepard doesn't assemble a team AGAIN and bring help once he's sufficiently leveled up, there won't be an earth to save.

I think you mean. 
  I'm thinking it could be the guy who voiced Gaz/Ghost from Modern Warfare, but it sounds warmer than he sounds in those games.

of course! My Noble Sandra Shepherd will save the Earth in Mass Effect 3 ;)

Impressive CG.    Game companies really are shelling out for top end CG teasers these days.    Can't blame them either, ship over some art assets/renders/sounds/and a script to china, pay 'em big bucks, and blam, badass trailer that gets the hype blood flow'n.   That said, I don't mind a CG teaser, but once you start showing the in engine stuff the CG "fake" trailers should stop.

Posted by Meptron

I still don't really understand what's causing the world to burn. Is it those robots or are there some dragons I'm not seeing?

Posted by blurienh

So that teaser from the other day was Mass Effect 3 after all, shame really, I was lookingt forward to a different style game set in the ME world.
Posted by GoneWacko

Guess I had better finish Mass Effect 2 one of these months.

Lady Shepard can't romance Tali. Lady Shepard is automatically the wrong choice.
